I just got home, been at the police station for 2 hours after being mugged 
feeling kind of down right now. I was having such a good night as well. Depressing story eh?! I gave chase, but wasn't quick enough....guess its probably for the best, as I didn't think of the consequences like whether the guy had a knife or something. Got my phone stolen and other less important stuff. But hey, at least I'm okay.

I've never been mugged, but was forced to give someone 40p once, which obviously, I obliged to.
And, yeah, at least your OK.
Hopefully nothing really important was stolen?
*sing's "it's just like barbarella, barbarella
I am very sorry to hear that - it must have been a very scary experience. Like you say, yes, you're ok - you're alive and able to get home. However, that doesn't detract from the fact you have just had a traumatic experience.
Just chill out this weekend if you can, gather your thoughts and gain your strength.
And just think ... all they got was your mobile phone and other 'unimportant stuff' but they are still tossers who will always live a miserable life and never be able to look themselves in the eye ....... you on the other hand can laugh at them for that
So, need cheering up? Well, my famous story about the time I got my fleece jacket out of the tumble dryer, put it on and went shopping down the high st for a couple of hours and then got home and found that I had been walking round with two pop socks & a pair knickers stuck from static to the back of my fleece jacket, that always goes down a treat
Yes I did, the police weren't that quick even though I was practically begging them to cancel it. But they assured me any calls made wouldn't be charged to me. Luckily my battery was practically dead as well, so the idiot wouldn't have got very far on it
Oh bless you! You made me lol.
Barbarella, what happened is bound to make you feel down. My handbag was nicked in a restaurant and I gave chase and found myself in a cul-de-sac with the girl trapped in a corner. I stood there wondering what to do next and suddenly a man appeared from nowhere asking if he could help me. I think sometimes watching crime drama on TV subconsciously can help us because in the split second that I looked at him and wondered if he could help, I realised he didn't intend to.
I count myself lucky that my instinct told me to walk away. I lost a bag that I'd bought in Italy the week before and I was so in love with it I'd been putting it on the table and just gazing at it
I know it's not nearly the same as being mugged. It must have been terrifying and I feel angry on your behalf. All we can do is offer up words to try to comfort you.
I can't say anything to cheer you up but you do definitely qualify for a big long {{{{hug}}}}

Hopefully one day the person who did this will get their comeuppance.
What a dreadful experience that must have been for you! ((((((((((Barbarella)))))))). Hope they catch the b*stard who did it and I do hope that the sympathy that you're sure to get on here will help you feel a bit better too.
