It is traumatic and terrible to be victimized. What adds insult to injury, so to speak, is when, out of a lack of situational awareness, we put ourselves in the path of predators. Best we be extremely vigilant when in new, unfamiliar surroundings, when we are around strangers and acquaintances we don't know well, and even, perhaps, when we are around people we presume to be our friends. The world is a more dangerous place than ever before, with predators everywhere, many of them smiling at us and offering us good things and good times. We must have our radar up and pay attention, and at the first sign of something that is off or odd, best we extricate ourselves from the situation for our safety. It's always best to err on the side of caution and self-preservation.
