Wow.
You wouldn't help a fellow human being?
If I was ending a date with a man and he was suddenly attacked outside his car, I would call 911 and help him. What is wrong with you?

I'm extremely independent and don't "need" a man, but I like a man who is protective enough to care. To me, I sense that he values me.
I had an amazing first date with a guy I really liked over a year ago. We completely hit it off, spent most of the day together, even though that wasn't the plan, then he just let me walk home alone at night. We were on a street in our city that I was unfamiliar with and didn't realize it came to a deadend. He knew it and let me walk the wrong direction (he saw the direction I was going)! He said absolutely nothing and let me go on my way into a dark deadend. That was a red flag right there. Things with him only got worse and I realized more and more that he would never be protective of me because he didn't value me.
Any guy who's been protective of me has valued me. And you know what? I returned the favor by being protective in my own way. Protection is a two-way street.

Wait, you'd seriously let a woman you're out with get accosted right and front of you and step back and call the police and let it happen? I hope you're not serious. I hope that if you actually found yourself in this situation you'd react differently.

What would you do while you're waiting on the police to arrive?

Let's review the risks of me getting involved.
- dude could have a gun and have no problem shooting a black man like most of the country
- if dude gets hurt by me, he could sue me for injuries I inflicted
- if a third person comes on the scene, and I'm directly involved in the matter, that person could think I'm the starter of the whole mess and cops could take me to jail
One think risking that for my momma and my friends, I will not risk it for a stranger. BTW I've probably been in more violent situations than most on this forum so you are listening to a voice of experience.
