Not the worst thing in the world, but I had something happen to me.

I used to be friends with This Dude; in hindsight, he was always very rude and hateful, but I guess it took me a while to realize that. One night me, This Dude, and some other friends are driving around. I’m sitting in the back of the truck, next to This Dude. He put his hand on my knee and looked at me. Now at first, I thought he was being ‘joke creepy’, if that makes any sense. But then after about 5 seconds - which can be a really long time - he didn’t let go of my knee. So I picked up his hand and got it off my knee, but he started to grab my knee again. I took his hand off me for a second time, but This Dude kept going back to grab my knee. This happened another two times, and after about the fourth attempt I just sort of gave up and sat there awkwardly... I didn’t really know what to do. Mostly, he just grabbed my knee, but then he started groping my inner thigh. Again, I just kind of sat there and didn’t know what to do. This whole thing went on for about one minute, maybe, and then he stopped touching me.

Also, separate from this event, This Dude has made sexually suggestive comments around me. I mean, they’re presented as jokes, but I know he doesn’t mean them that way. Like one time I had to bend over to pick something off of the ground and This Dude started talking about how hard it is to “control himself” around me, or some shit like that.

Best part is that This Dude is one of those people who doesn’t like gay people. Even though he groped me - a man.
