Feeling very unsafe right now in my hostel room!
I‘m (F) all alone in my hostel room (that I can’t lock) and there are two guys hanging out outside of my room that make me feel uncomfortable to say the least. Last time I went outside he asked me for my number, I said no and he kept pestering me. The staff is not here at night and I don‘t see any other guests. (The hostel is quite empty). What should I do? I‘m scared they could come to my room while I‘m sleeping.
Edit: To clarify: There‘s a seating area outside of my room (not the main one though) and they‘re sitting there. I just texted a guy who‘s staying in the same hostel and asked him for help. He said he‘s outside but will return later. I realize this guy doesn‘t owe me anything but I can‘t help feeling furious about his careless response.
Update: Thank you guys for your quick replies and your concern. I pushed a heavy furniture against the door. The guy who‘s in my hostel arrived and is next door. He said I can come or text him if anything happens. The ones victim-blaming me trying to paint a picture of me that is simply not true(the dumb idiot who puts herself into danger without doing proper research): thanks for making a scary situation worse. You made me actually second-guess myself. However: I did my proper research before coming to Lebanon. I asked female friends who travelled here alone, specifically ones who stayed in this hostel. I simply got unlucky because this hostel is usually full, including the female dorms. But yeah, thinks for making a shitty situation even worse.
Believe me: there‘s nothing more important to me than my safety. I‘m not only leaving the hostel but in fact the whole country. I‘m looking for flight tickets right now.
Some users suggests szchizomaxxing.
I’d start acting really crazy so that they’re freaked out by you. Speaking gibberish, pacing, maybe throw some stuff around. Act really bizarre, loud and make a scene so that they don’t mess with you.
Panick. Start to scream so they know you aren't to be messed with. Make sure to let the other guy know how mad you are who won't help you, and then lock the door when you leave.
others suggest calling the police on the perps
Why not leave right now?
Edit: or call the police?
I
In order of immediacy: Does the door open into your room, or out of your room? If in, try to find something to wedge underneath the gap to secure the door and create a barrier. Also, bar the door with anything you have - if the bed can be moved, move it and use it to bar the door. Combine it with other things like dressers, etc.
Call the police if they can be trusted (I have no idea if Lebanon police can be trusted or not)
Call an Uber and have the police escort you to the Uber
Do you have money to get a hotel room?
If yes, try Ubering to one - if no, consider booking the first flight out of Lebanon and going to the airport, which should be relatively safe.
I wouldn't rely on the guy to help you, for all you know he could be like the two guys outside your door.

Everyone's a brave solo traveller, ready to take on the world, until a brown person talks to them.

Actually she is brown (Egyptian) herself, so she doesn't even attract unwanted attention like white woman would.
She is certainly white on the inside though.

Comparatively.
Anyway, I actually don't blame her for feeling unsafe. I blame her for choosing to go to a shady hostel in Lebanon, and then panicking, proving that she never should have left Europe.

Why would an Egyptian go travelling in Lebanon, anyway? Isn't it just a slightly shittier version of the country she's from?
Isn't that like someone from Greece deciding to go travelling in Albania, or a French person travelling in Belgium?

Beyruth is kinda westernized in that you can buy booze and wear bikinis while also being arab speaking.
The economy and government are shit however.

Especially since she claims that only her parents are from Egypt. So she probably didn't grew up in Egypt. So why not visit the country of her family, which incidentally is also way safer than surrounding countries.
Also it's the capybara's kingdom

This one will actually work tho. Not even other schizos will wanna do anything with you if you're chimping out in that way, let alone normal people.
Schizomaxxing is always the way to go when you're outnumbered and there's no way out.

I like how she just throws in near the end that she's in Lebanon. Why would you hostel in Lebanon if you're constantly paranoid?

Lebanon's a great place, it's got a riviera, good cafe culture, great food, bakeries... don't believe everything you see on the news.
It's not one of those places where all the females go around covered up, either. From what I remember I think the girls must be enforcing a minimum heel height on each other. They do really like to dress up.

Yeah, it's definitely one of the better Arab places. On the other hand it has a shit location by being on the land route of migrants/refugees.

Hostels are safer than hotels tbh because of the lack of privacy. Never had anything stolen either.

Yeah she was never in any danger but if her risk tolerance is this low, she probably just shouldn’t solo travel. It will be uncomfortable at some point, especially in the third world.

You can solo travel in relatively safe countries like Japan, Korea and Baltic ones. Especially if you can speak a language there.
But any shithole is a bad idea (that includes large cities in Western countries like France/Germany/Sweden/...)

But she did her research
This b-word actually thinks research is a substitute for safety provided by not being a poorstrag and spending more to stay in relatively better, secure places.
Not to mention solo traveling not to just any country but a sandBIPOC shithole lmao. This neighbor might be Egyptian on the outside but she definitely has white woman brain worms
Tbh, I get there's a time and place to give someone shit for it but you can tell from her smug tone here that she still hasn't learned her lesson and this won't be her last time.

People who can't afford to stay in a hotel shouldn't travel. Youth hostels were created for a completely different world and were never intended to accomodate white women and their bullshit. I know she's some kind of Egyptian but she's white really.

Hostels are for poor people. If you want locking doors, get a hotel like an adult. Feeling like you're going to be r*ped is part of the authentic backpacking experience.
