This Teen Was At A Local Library When A Man Followed Her, Trying To Get Her To Smell A Perfume Bottle, And She Believes He Might Have Been Attempting To Drug Her

Just the other day, this young teenage girl decided to visit her local library to get some studying in. And while she was there, a random guy made eye contact with her and decided to sit down directly in front of her– even though there were a ton of other open seats.
Now, she did not think much of it at the time and continued reading, even though she did feel a bit uncomfortable.
“As I could tell, he was staring at me kind of creepily and often,” she said.
Nonetheless, she continued studying. Then, once she was finished, she started packing up to head out of the library when she noticed the man suddenly start gathering his things, too.
And honestly, she found that really odd– because the man had seemed to be right in the middle of his own work.
Anyway, just as she was finishing packing up, the man actually approached her and got her attention. At that moment, she also noticed that he was holding a bottle of perfume in his hand.
Then, out of nowhere, he began repeatedly asking her if the perfume smelt good and kept trying to get her to smell it.
Thankfully, she kept declining to smell the perfume and decided to get up from her seat. Rather than exiting the library, though, she got a bad feeling that something was off. So, she simply relocated to a different part of the library.
To her total shock, though, the man actually followed her. She sat down in a window seat, and he reportedly sat down very close by.

“Constantly looking at me while pretending that he wasn’t,” she added.
So, at that point, she decided to text her mom and ask for a ride home. She also got up to go speak with the library staff, but upon approaching a staff member, she found that the library manager was already there waiting for her.
The manager then rushed her into the office– because apparently, the man had been quickly following her all the way to the staff area.
And once alone with the manager, she learned that another library patron had noticed the way the man had been looking at her and even called it predatory. So, that patron reported it to the library staff.
Thankfully, she did act wisely in that situation by finding a manager and got home safe and sound. But, the situation was still quite alarming, and she believed the man might have been trying to drug her.
“It is pretty scary that this isn’t the only time I have been harassed or threatened in public, and I am not very far into my teens!” she revealed.
Have you ever found yourself in a similar situation? Do you think the man was trying to harm her? Did she do the right thing by remaining aware and seeking help? If you had been in her shoes, how would you have handled this?
