Personal Space! I Need It! / myLot

Everyday it becomes more and more clear to me how much this commute to work is effecting me. People standing too close to me, having their newspaper up in my face while they are standing and trying to read, talking loudly, eating gross smelling food, being generally rude and uncool human beings. It needs to stop. What is wrong with people? No one seems to have any sense of personal space anymore! Keep your hands, body and any objects you carry with you away from me please. Trains are crowded yes, but there are ways to stand or sit so you and your stuff don't touch me or anyone else. Sorry for the rant. I am having a bad morning as usual. Please try and have a better day than I am having! Take care. (Photo belongs to MissNikki)

@MissNikki Even reading that made me feel anxious. I don't like that either. Sometimes I have a bit of trouble breathing when a group of people are near me and I can't move / get out of the way. Sorry you have to deal with this often! Not fun at all!

Yeah, it sucks. It won't last forever, though!

They need to study in Japan-- people are generally very polite in stuffed trains. I tell visitors, "Make yourself and your possessions small." They get it.

I will have to try and remember that saying, Denise.
