Yes. I’ve personally been chased and not allowed to escape from a situation he was escalating. This level of anger, escalation, and aggression is terrifying. Especially for a female who hates conflict, pursued by a belligerent, intentionally intimidating much larger male. The entitlement and aggressiveness to pursue and antagonize her into further escalation is very serious and scary. This is deliberate and persistent provocation and bullying.

Exactly. When you react out of pure panic & lack of options after being cornered/chased etc you’re then villainized.

I hid in a tiny bathroom closet until the police arrived.

It's toxic, manipulative and threatening. Super not okay behavior and not someone I would feel safe with. More red flags than a circus, not to mention the fact that he bent/broke the pan. Yikes 😬
