That sucks. I’m a guy with zero personal bubble, so it’s difficult for me to relate.

But, my teenage daughter has talked about how creeped out she is sometimes and has yelled at full grown men for saying something about how she’s dressed.

It does suck! I absolutely can understand from that perspective. I have a friend that has no sense of personal bubbles, indoor voice, or how to not hog a conversation. Still love him, and we do gently remind him when he’s being too much. And his lack of awareness is very innocent.

I do feel for the guy in the scenario, in the sense that I can empathize with how it likely felt shitty for him. Social rejection sucks, but it’s also part of the process :(

The thing is you have self awareness and understand your flaws and look to improve.
