Ugh. I'm really sorry you had to go through that. Sounds absolutely terrifying
Just a week ago I was crossing no man's land to Tajikistan and it was getting late and the soldiers at the outpost invited me to stay there. I wasn't sure if I'd make the Tajik border in time and it was looking like it was going to be very cold at night and I wasnt feeling keen on camping alone in no man's land so I agreed.
They were mostly nice, but then one got his English-Russian phrasebook out and started practicing the "romance" section on me. Then at night he put his mat down next to me and kept trying to spoon me - and I'd push him away and say no, but a few hours later he'd be back at it again... for the entire night.
Honestly I'm getting a little fed up with some of the men here - if I'm with any other foreign men they act as if I don't exist, but when I'm on my own it's as if they think I'm just easy picking.
