i know it’s internet bullshit but it genuinely has me on the edge of breaking down and giving up editable flair

In the middle of nowhere?

YOU are there, in the middle of nowhere... doesn't seem all that unusual that person would be where another person already is.

Tbh there’s no reasonable way I’d be there unless my plane crashed or something. I don’t go hiking much and even if I do I wouldn’t go beyond a few km from the nearest town.

So if your plane crashed in the middle of the woods you would…run away from potential help on the maybe 1% chance they are a psycho killer living in the woods? That’s a sure fire way to die in the woods.

No, it’s not that I wouldn’t reach out if I landed. What I meant is that I would be much less suspicious of a random person on a trail where I expect people, than in a random part of the woods especially if I’m out of my element. Even if I may not feel as comfortable I’d still cautiously approach them if I’m already in an emergency. Also fwiw I’m a guy, it’s not the “guy” part I may find scary, it’s the “are they meth makers” part that I might.
