[ooc: I'm a slow but dedicated backtagger! Always willing to collect new threads like Pokemon, too.]
Believe me when I say I never want to be that man again. No matter how difficult it is to move on, I'm dedicated to being better than I've been. But ... I suppose I do need some support and encouragement, so I'd appreciate that.
I have no doubts whatsoever that you can take care of yourself - far be it from me to insinuate that I think otherwise. I just know that there are far too many people in the world who would try to take advantage of a situation where they thought you might be unaware. It helps to have someone with you to provide a barrier between you and them. I'd make for an effective barrier - I'm pretty large. I try not to be anymore, but I can also be intimidating if I want to be.
Rest assured that I mean you no harm. If I ever did anything to make you uncomfortable, I'd deserve whatever consequences of those actions. Anyway, yeah. I'm available.
[ooc - No worries about being slow! And always feel free to let me know if you'd like to play out anything else, including them grabbing that drink! <3]
Trying to take it all on your own two shoulders sounds like a recipe for disaster. Believe me, even just knowing you've a friend in your corner makes a world of difference.
I suppose if your size alone is enough of a deterrent for most people, using it to my advantage wouldn't be the worst idea. Especially not since you're giving me permission. I'm glad we understand one another, and hopefully that understanding persists once we're imbibing.

Tomorrow evening? Is that too soon?
