I had to walk from the train station home after work every evening. In the winter months it was dark. I remember every night on my way home I had my route sussed out with different options if ever I was followed. I remember the night my forward planning worked.
I was aware that there was a guy following me. When I was out of the crowd and on a quieter street, he was still there, about half the length of the street behind me and he had picked up his pace. I didn't once look behind me, I knew if I kept my pace steady and turned the corner past some bushes I could sprint to a particular house and hide in an alcove. I did this.. my heart was beating and I thought to myself that it might be really silly if I was only imagining it, and what if the house owners saw me? All doubt was removed when I took a peek and this guy was running, moving from one side of the street to the other.. he was looking for me. I thanked my stars I had this worked out... I wouldn't have been able to do anything if he had caught me, I was a mess!
I appreciate the tips! I will remember them.. especially if someone is following me more closely than the situation above.
