A woman sobbed on me in the hallway today.

As the title states, I was sobbed on by a young woman in the hallway today between classing periods.

 

It shook me up for the rest of the day, even to the point to where I knew I had to help her.

Here is what happened:

 

The woman's name is Angel. She was dating one of the men in our theater class, Chad. Over the weekend, Chad and her broke up over some dispute. Well, both sides have different stories. All I knew was that they split up, and Chad already had a new girlfriend.

 

I felt bad for her, so when I saw her in the hallway today, I felt like she needed a hug. She looked bad, so I walked over to her and hugged her. What started as a simple hug quickly escalated.

 

She began sobbing on my chest, and held me tighter. I had no idea what to do at this point. I just continued to hug her, and began to say that everything would be ok. She continued to sob, and told me how she felt so empty, and how she swallowed pills the night before. I was so awestruck, that I kept hugging her.

 

Well, after I went to my class, I couldn't stop thinking about what just happened. After it ended, I found her in the hallway and asked if she needed any help. I got her number, and I promised her that I would help her, no matter what.

 

So, today has been exciting.

You're a good person comrade. I've helped my share of people in the past, even though they were terrified of my appearance. I am outwardly a scary guy but inside I feel bad for people and I really do care. I remember helping a friend in my town who was assaulted by some older gentlemen because he was Homosexual. That's how I met one of my good friends, by helping him in his time of need.

Thanks for lending her a shoulder. I had a similar experience with a guy at work (I worked at a university and he was a student). He was having some trouble at home, academic problems, etc. It just got to be overwhelming. I gave him a hug when he started crying and it helped him to collect himself. A reassuring touch can do much more for grieving people than most realize. Don't be afraid to offer that to somebody.
