My encounter

 Hey everyone. I wanted to share the story of an encounter I had. Ive never been much of a theorist but the encounter I had definitely makes me believe theyre real. Back around in maybe 2010 (I was 9 at the time so I dont remember the details of when it happened for sure) It was around maybe juneish. I was on my bike, riding down to my friend's house who lives at the end of our cul-de-sac. I parked my bike on the telephone pole, and about 60-70 feet back in the woods that end at the road, I see a tall figure standing about 9 feet high. It had the typical grey alien figure. Long and skinny with big eyes. The only different it had weird bumps on the side of its cheek, and a slightly bigger head, and it was green with more angrier looking eyes. Other notable features was a long black and purple robe. It had its arms sprawled out to the side slightly kind of parallel with its hips, almost like it was gesturing me to come forward. For what seemed like 10-20 seconds we just stood there. I stared at it, and it stared back with an expressionless face. 

The thing that broke me out of the paralized fear was when it blinked. After that my mind kicked into overdrive and I decided itd be better to just run to my friend's door (whos big yard made it like 70-80 feet from me) after i sprinted as fast as my legs could take me, i looked back to see if it was chasing me. It wasnt, it moved, but it was still in the woods, still facing me with that same gesture with its arms spread out slightly, and an expressionless face. At this point I was POUNDING on the door but no one answered, I even tried breaking in because I was so scared but the door was locked. I looked at it again and it was still there, a little closer but not leaving the treeline, which from the door was about 30 feet away. So I decided I didnt want to die today and bolted back to my bike as a last ditch effort. I picked my bike up as fast as I could a rode all the way to my home. After that I havent had any more encounters. Some days I want to find out if it actually was an alien and see it again, but other days Im terrified of even thinking of another encounter. I tried to think reasonably, like what if it was a costume? But I find the chances of some 9 foot tall person wearing a costume thats advanced enough to BLINK realistically, in 2009, on a quiet desolate road in a countryside in New Jersey to be slim at best.
