Sure, lemme just put on my calm face while hitting the pavement, sounds easy peasy.

Interesting paradox.

Pretty sure it’s meant as a general guide, Sarah. Always gotta adapt to circumstances.

It’s just like creating boundaries but in a physical sense, right?

I think it’s all about gut feeling, Zack. If someone makes you feel uncomfortable, better to be safe and keep distance.

It’s all about that posture and vibe you give off, totally agree with you there Will Raynard.
