    I could need some feedback on an experience that I’m overthinking…

    I was at a concert a week ago. I’m kinda tall so I stand to the side to not be too much on the way, but still dancing/jumping and having a good time. Generally I don’t pass, but I was wearing fairly feminine clothes. At some point something kinda pulls a hair stand from behind? So I jump around and see a guy just sorta grinning awkwardly/maybe embarrassed at the floor. I don’t really know what he’s doing so I just stare him down for another moment and get back to the music.

    So, uh, what did he want? It kinda reminds me of boys trying to get girls attention in kindergarten-kind of logic. Did I pass? Was it rude to use my height like that? So many useless questions!

    Feeling really dysphoric about it for some reason too:/

      To play devil’s advocate, is it possible that your hair just got caught on something and the guy behind you had nothing to do with it? Mine’s not even very long and it gets caught on my sweater all the time.

        I’m pretty sure it didn’t, because of the direction of the pull. I’ve had long hair for like 20 years so I’m used to what it can get stuck in and what that feels like.
