Get this.

2 years ago I was at my ex gfs house doing some business. Anyway, while I was taking a shower, some guy knocked on the door to ask to sale magazines to her. These ppl are smart and you have to be an idiot on the next thing you say to them so becarefull on what you say when they ask "well if you're not interested in this offer or don't have any money. Is there anyone else home who would be interested or could lend you some money for this really great offer?" If you say "sorry no ones home right now" you are completely ****ed!

So my ex said that "sorry but I have no money and no else is here to give me money right now" and imidiatly the guy pushed the door open on her and grabed her. I was already out of the shower and heard her scream. I ran out with just boxers and I saw the guy on top of her. Ran at him and saw me coming and took off. Poor thing as terrified, as was I.

Just a heads up and an addition to this post. It's a scam and an issue for getting raped.

^^ Whoa, scary stuff there. I'm sure she's still traumatized from it too.

Somewhat similar thing happened to me a few years back, though not as severe as your experience. Me and my g/f were kicking back on the couch watching tv late at night, and my g/f turns and says, "Oh my god!" I turned my head to look, and there was some creep standing right outside our living room window staring at us. After about 10 seconds or so, I was like, "WTF, can I help you?" He didn't even respond, he just stood there.

I then got up, and turned on all the lights including the porch light. I cracked opened the front door to take a look outside, and that dude was gone. I walked outside, and saw no sign of him anywhere. He just simply vanished.

Whoever that guy was, he did a real good job of creeping us out. REAL GOOD JOB!

God damn stiggy, that was ****ing close. I'd chase after that mother ****er and beat his ass to the ground. If anything happens to my gf, i'd go absolutely insane.

On another note:

Back when I was 16, home alone parents away, I forgot to take the trash can out on garbage pick up day. That night around 11 pm, I get a call on the phone. Couldnt pick it up because I was taking a dump. Not even 2 minutes later, I hear a loud 'crack' and what sounded like glasses hitting the floor. I thought "Oh ****, a burglar". I quickly pinch, run to the kitchen to get the chefs knife, collect myself, and slowly walk towards the sound of the source. I see a guy outside the windows trying to break in. I scream "get the **** out I got a shot gun, and I will shoot you!" The guy takes off like a bat out of hell. In Texas, if you illegally trespass another property, the property owner has every right to shoot you on site, no questions asked.

After that whole incident, i called the cops, told them about the whole story. My whole body started shaking as the whole thing finally hit home.

Be careful out there.
