What to do if a woman rests her head on your shoulder while sleeping on the MRT?

Just wanted to know what was I to do because I wanted to minimise as much physical contact with her as possible (uk to avoid allegations of harassment or what not).
So I just got up and out of my seat leaving her to suddenly wake up after her head had nothing to rest onto anymore. Felt kind of bad to disturb a sleeping person like that but also feels wrong if a female rests her head on your shoulder like that…
Here are what netizens think
- It happened to me last time. So what I did was, telling another female whom is awake and saw the whole situation and requesting her to exchange the seats with me. That way I avoided the potential of being called harassment even though its not my fault. In addition, the lady can sleep peacefully without much disturbance. Thankfully the lady whom I contacted with, willingly helped a bro out. Heng uh.
- Start planning the wedding and think of where you want to BTO.
But fr, everyone is fighting their own battles and while it’s understandable you’d want to avoid any unnecessary issues about harressment and all that, you can just stay still or gently tap her on the shoulder to let her know. Pretty sure she’ll be more embarrassed than you.
End of the day, if you can choose, always choose to be kind. - Happened to me before, some student fell asleep onto my shoulder. I made sure to put my hands as far in front of me as possible so nobody can claim I am touching her. Then let her sleep until my stop.
- I’m a woman but I think it’s kinda F’d up we’re living in a time now where if guys (or any person for that matter) just want to tap someone’s shoulder to get them to move, they face the risk of being reported. Meanwhile she gets to sleep on your shoulder and that’s “okay”
