I definitely always try to walk in crowds or around other people. Luckily my block is fairly lively at night so I feel pretty safe once i’m on the block - I still am super vigilant though.

I actually work in the building you’re talking about with all of the security guards. I feel safe on that block but I live further west by the river. My job pays for cars home after 8pm, but I never take them up on it as my puppy’s day care is closed by then. So I always try to leave at least 30 minutes before sunset and finish my work at home.

Oh ok that makes sense then, I think it does get a little empty and less lively the more west you go towards the river so I can understand the worry.

I’m not a woman so I can’t even imagine how it feels for you to be in that type of mindset after experiencing those things but I hope you and the puppy remain safe and hopefully don’t experience anything anymore ✨
