I'm a male. It was my freshman year of college and around the springtime. I enjoyed working

out and after a busy day, it was time to hit the campus gym. Now, to give you a visual

of how the campus fitness center is pictured, the main center area has several treadmills,

hamstring sets, and small televisions. This area also has windows for people outside of

the gym to appear into as well. And to the right of the treadmill area includes the

weight and bench press section, and to the left is the entrance to the gym. Anyways,

I was doing my nightly routine, and the gym was very empty after I was finished. I decided

that it was time to head back to my dorm. Now, this is when things started getting

creepy. As I left the gym and was going up the steps, I noticed someone across campus.

He seems suspicious, and I heard him say from a distance.

What's up? This is a bearded, rugged looking male, and he had a hood over his head. I said,

what's up? Back at the man as well. At first, I didn't think much else. Maybe he wanted

to be friendly. I began to walk across the grass to my dorm. However, the man then started

heading my way, with his eyes completely locked on the mine. I became unnerved and went

back into the fitness center rapidly. Now, fortunately, there is always a fitness worker near the entrance

of the gym, who sits at a desk and has people sign in before they work out. At the moment,

I did not tell them about what had just happened because I felt that was possibly being paranoid.

What if this guy just wanted to chat? However, during the time though, I peered outside

the window of the treadmill area and saw shoes pacing back and forth. I started to panic,

and suspected this was the same guys before. After this happened, I then decided to stick

around and watch TV in the treadmill area for a good 10-15 minutes, just to ensure the

creepy man had given up. It was obvious now that this guy did not have good intentions.
