"What woman hasn't been approached by a drunken man?"
Sorry, but I don't believe that that is a common thing nowadays, unless the person doing the approachin'
wants to get arrested and spend some time in jail.
But for those women who have had to deal with men who are in a drunken stupor, I would agree with you that they have most likely been approached rather than had one cut the window screen and try to crawl through their bedroom window while they were sleeping. At least I certainly hope so!
As for going to the front door and announcing that he was the victim's "neighbor," I have my own
thoughts as to why he might have done that, but I do not want to engage in speculation or fantasy, as some people who have posted on this and related threads have done.
I guess in the end, we'll just have to agree to disagree. But I will share with you one final thought:
Had Efren only gone to this unfortunate woman's front door in his socks and undies, I would have laughed and snickered about it for days on end while feeling compassion for the innocent victim all the while.
But when he went and broke her window screen and tried to gain entry into her bedroom before going to the front door and announcing himself, well, sorry, but that was a major game-changer for me. And while Efren and others may wish to continue to blame alcohol and other things for his inappropriate conduct, in the end, the buck stops with one person: Efren.
While I have never had problems with alcohol or substance abuse, I have had a family member who has. It is hell for the family members to go through, and I tell you that as one who has had a ringside seat to one who has experienced its ravages. It will do no good for those around Efren to continue to enable him and make excuses for his conduct, for in doing so, they are giving him a green light to continue his questionable behavior; and as long as that continues, Efren will never change.
