I started a new job a while back. The office women would always ask how I was keeping myself busy since they thought I came from some metropolitan area (I don’t). I told them I go on weekend backpacking trips. Without fail, it goes:
>Who do you go with?
Myself
>Isn’t that dangerous??
I was a Scout, have a lot of experience, know my limits, and that I need to be careful since I’m alone, etc
>You really shouldn’t do that!
Every damn time!
Once I made the mistake of telling them that I used to go on backpacking trips with my ex gf but now I go alone
>That’s really sad, anon. That’s so sad!
Fuck em! What do they want you to do, sit inside all weekend? I’d go with someone if there was someone to go with, but normal people can hardly go a few miles over rough terrain before they quit.
