..... met a very "big" woman, with flat shoes, and relatively loose clothes, with a belly, on the train, and she stood right in front of you, where you sat?
And you wonder whether to give up your seat to her?
Yes. You could not tell if she were pregnant, because she did not have a "I am pregnant" pink tag displayed or hanging from her bag.
You did not want to stand up and offer her the seat, and then realised she WASN'T pregnant, and deeply offended her.
I had this dilemma on the train this evening, and the woman sitting next to me, suddenly fell into a "coma" (She faked her sleep!). The man on the other side was too busy with his mobile phone, frantically punching the screen, and coughing like his lungs had imploded.
I was reading a book, about how to be "nice" 131 ways.
SERIOUSLY
「感じのいい」と思われる131ルール - A Japanese book about how to be "nice".
What did I do?
I alighted at the next station, and walked home.
It was just one station.
Right or wrong, I needed the walk
