I am 38 year old single mother of 2 and my whole life I feel like I am taken advantage of or bullied. I am a quiet woman and try to mind my own business as much as I can. I was driving through the Costco parking lot yesterday trying to find a spot. This lady walking to her car waved at me and said she was 3 cars from the end to follow her, so I did. As I waited for her to load her vehicle I smiled as she looked back with my signal on. I looked around and there was no other car waiting. She pulled out and passed me waving goodbye and I waved back. As she passed me I looked ahead to pull up into the spot I had been waiting for when a car came into the spot from the other side quickly and pulled in. I was frustrated to say the least but figured maybe they didn't notice me parked there waiting for the spot and maybe thought I was just driving through. Any other day I would have continued driving around and not said a word, but today was different. My son (15) was with me and I didn't want him to feel he shouldn't stand up for yourself. So I pulled up and calmly stated to the young man that I was waiting for that spot every since the previous person walked to the vehicle. He looked at me and quickly said he was sorry and he would gladly move. I was shocked but I thanked him, he quickly got into his truck and moved. We parked and headed into Costco, this is where it got interesting. We walked around and did some shopping and went to cash out. As we were walking out my son had noticed the same young man standing next to where my jeep was parked. This man looked to be maybe 26 I wasn't scared just nervous. As we walked up he looked at me and said I am only doing this to make sure you realize it was truly a mistake when I parked in your spot. He handed me a 2 pack of Cineplex tickets he had purchased from Costco for me and my son. I said he really didn't need to as I was just glad you were so willing to move right after without making a bid deal. He looked at my son and said "your mom is a tough lady, will you take these for you and her." my son laughed and said yes I will thank you. Such a amazing young man where an incident like this sometimes turns ugly, this one ended beautifully. So that man I say Thank you for letting me stand my ground and helping me teach my son to stand up for himself, even though I usually do not.
