Dear Natasha:
In June 2020, you shared that were a flight attendant. At the time, restaurants re-opened and you had dinner with your live-in boyfriend at the time. Before leaving your car for the restaurant, you hid your iPad behind your seat. After dinner, you and your boyfriend walked back to your car. As you approached the car, you saw a young man take your iPad after breaking the windows of the car.
You started yelling at him=> he tried to leave=> you caught his arm=> the iPad fell from his hand to the ground=> he hit you=> you called for your boyfriend to help you=> your boyfriend didn’t move at first, and then looked into your purse for a pepper spray=>you threw a knee kick to the thief’s stomach and twisted his arm=> he kneeled down=> there was a struggle and you called for your boyfriend (who was calling the police) to help you, saying “He is down! We can overpower him!”=> the thief swung his head back and burst your lip, then got up and ran.
As a result of the fight, you had your iPad back, but had to stitch up your lip and had bruises all over your arms and legs. You were shocked, angry and disappointed of your boyfriend: “He act as THE tough man but I realize he is a kind of coward… I don’t think I can make my life with that kind of person anymore”/ You told him that “he was a useless coward geek and that even if he has whatever degrees he has no brain at all”, and had him sleep on the sofa.
My thoughts/ questions today: I assume your lip and bruises healed, but as the title of your thread says, you are overstressed since the attack, “really in stress and panic when there are weird noise”.
In the title of your thread, it says that you were attacked by “teenagers”, as in plural. You only described “one young man” back in June. Was it one teenager/ young man or more than one?
