'It still gives me chills thinking about it.'
:"What's the most bizarre encounter you've had with a stranger?" and the replies quickly filled with an array of unsettling and surprising interactions. Here's what people shared:"When I was a kid, this guy in his late 30s or so passed by me and asked for directions someplace. I told him, he said thanks, crossed the street, and I continued on my way. A few seconds later, I heard a noise, like something whizzing past me.
"After a while, his stop came up. This man, who I’d never met before and who knew nothing about my background, stood up and took my hand in his, and kissed it. Now, at first, I was thinking, 'Great, this guy's a creep who’s into 15-year-old boys,' but then I looked into his eyes and realized he wasn’t being creepy at all. There was no devious intention. He looked at me and said, 'I know the pain you are feeling. You lost your mother. Do not despair; she is with you.
"A second later, someone's nachos with gooey cheese sauce comes raining down on us. Then, he let me go. I check it out, and there's not a drop of cheese sauce on me. I was just so amazed that this guy, in a split second, decided to save a total stranger from suffering the rest of the concert covered in nacho cheese. Thank you, kind stranger, if you're out there.""I was in a grocery store in Cape May, New Jersey with my ex-MIL.
"Anyway, when I got home, I checked out the pants. Some were my size, so I wanted to clean them before I wore them. Before I put them in the washer, I checked the pockets, just in case there was anything in them. The most bizarre thing to ever happen to me: There were $100 bills in every single pocket in these pants. I'm not joking. IN EVERY SINGLE POKET. NO JOKE. It was about $1,000. A lucky day in my life. I never saw the guy and his kids ever again.
"We dropped a couple people off, hung around at their apartment for a couple hours, then took off to bring ourselves home. We had to drive back through town where this individual had been standing on the sidewalk, and wouldn't you know it, that dude was still standing there, perfectly still, in the freezing cold, in the same spot he had been a couple hours earlier.
