thanq for writing back.
but first of all try to accept the fact. from a month i was on news that a needle psycho is roaming around. i am not saying that a random person came and pricked me. he came to me... that time i was taking selfies with my girlfriend and he asked did u ever tried staring game. i was like "what is staring game?"
he then demonstrated infront of me. i was bit worried about his behaviour at that time. then i was looking around he said u just lost and said dont worry try this with ur frnds and he went away. after half n hour i checked my hand there was a prick. and i also checked in selfies and pics there was no prick until he talked to me. sad thing is I didn't take any pics after meeting him. i left that place immediately. because he is peeping from the corners and checking me. he could be gay i guess. but whatever... thing is do i really need tonworry about this accident? what r the chances?

People don't just randomly walk up to strangers and poke them with needles. They do walk up to random strangers and shoot them in the face with a gun but this needle phobia that you're having is completely irrational and doesn't actually happen in reality. If it happened as often as people like you think it does, it would be all over the news. The fact that there has never been even one news story about needle poking incidents means that it doesn't happen.
