Kinda shook,
First time in my life I’ve had this creepy feeling of a threat towards my child.
Legit chills & anger I’ve never felt before.
Hiking with Tinlie & this guy rides by & says your daughter is beautiful,
I say thanks bro, have a great day thinking nothing of it.

10 minutes later he rides by again, says you look like a fitness model & she’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen as he’s getting off his bike now 20 feet ahead of us. He parks his bike & says look at her bows shes just stunning & gorgeous. He takes a step towards us,

He says may I photograph you & her she’s just so beautiful taking another step towards us.. I feel the neck hair standing straight up now, my senses are fully heightened as I step in front of Tinlie & say Hey Bro I’m just on a hike enjoying the day with my daughter carry on

He pulls out his phone 10 feet from us & says just 1 picture stepping closer I say if you don’t get on your bike right now & put your phone away you are about to have a problem man, I am enjoying a day alone with my daughter, leave now, I won’t ask again as I step towards him.

I didn’t mean to offend you, she’s just so beautiful he says with his phone out Don’t say one more word about her or how beautiful she is, Last warning, LEAVE NOW as I step closer & am now a couple steps from him with Tinlie behind me holding her hand. He mumbles & scurries off

I felt many emotions after: 1)sickened, he looked off, talked off & gave me the creepiest vibe I’ve ever had. 2)alerted, I have never felt my senses take over like that. Heightened in every area. I was suddenly so aware of my surroundings & the tiniest movements everywhere.

3)grateful, fitness is more than having abs or bench pressing X amount. Being strong & fit gave me the confidence that if he took one step closer, I was going to pummel him & not stop until he couldn’t move. I could protect my child from this creep if it came down to that.

4)urgency, I have said I’ll start BJJ after I semi-retire from my work. Truthfully, I’ve been in 1 real fight my entire life. This guy was older & scrawny, but what if he wasn’t? As a man I need to learn how to fight & protect my child better than I currently do. Signing up

Reflecting back maybe I overreacted, but i don’t care if I did. I would die willingly for my daughters & wife if it came to that & not blink once. I’ve never felt threatened before like that especially with my child. Stay safe & trust your instincts -protect -preside -provide

You did NOT overreact. I’ve worked death penalty cases with abductions and rapes. You were highly restrained.

I’ve taken confessions from multiple-murderers and child mutilators. I sleep well because I have faith in God. Without that?
