Alicia, now she was a real piece of work. Said she did n't feel good. Sat there sulking at our meeting. We were supposed to be discussing the next step on our research assignment on the cardiovascular effects of diabetes on women over 50 but she sat there, quiet, staring at her phone. 
 
 So I poked, I proded, trying to get her to talk. I mean, if she was just another coworker I would n't care, but we were sort of friends at this point. She had a way of trapping you in a friendship. But yeah, finally she responded with, `` I was assaulted.'' 
 
 And then back to silently staring at her phone. If that were her excuse for not having her work done, and not being prepared for this meeting, it was pretty messed up. But I gave her the benefit of the doubt. I poked some more, she refused to answer. `` People say I'm beautiful. I hear that at least five times a day. It's amazing.'' She said that as she admired herself in her phone-mirror. 
 
 I had no response to that, so I suggested ending the meeting and reconvening at another, more convenient, time. `` Sure, leave me, that's what I deserve.'' 
 
 At this point I started to get pretty annoyed. Do you want to talk, then, I ask. `` You're a man, you wo n't understand.'' 
 
 I did n't even know what to say to that. I wanted to say, okay do n't talk to me, then. Or I wanted to just get my things and leave. But as infuriating as she was, I also felt bad for her. Or she made me feel bad for her. I mean, she had just said she was assaulted. So i decided to stick around and ask her again what happened, even though I did n't care and would n't understand. 
 
 Finally, she relented. Or this was just the next move in the game she was playing. She finally looked up from her phone, tears in her eyes. `` You know the support group I run for discrminated youth at the student union? This man came in and yelled at us and told us we were wasting everyone's time! He was so rude and obnoxious. And obviously he walks away without any consequences.'' 
 
 I was confused, and it showed in my expression. `` Well, you could say I was verbally assaulted,'' she said. I swept up my things and walked out.
