Thanks, flowmom, for your outrage. It makes me feel better! I think I went through a "numb" period where I didn't allow myself to really think about how this man behaved. I also think I hesitated to tell H all the details because I felt like I did something wrong or could have prevented it all. I know that's not true, but it didn't stop me from feeling that way.
You're right about his reaction. However, I'll admit that it was a relief that he didn't react with indifference or a "not my problem" attitude. And I'm sure it's true that he doesn't want to be preoccupied with thoughts of my safety. I bet that's a real downer.
