Ruining My Rhythm (Crossing the Street)

Let me try to attempt my problem with "nice" drivers and crossing the street in front of them. I have my normal pace, maybe a little fast for some, but that's not the issue. Now, I want to cross the street and a car wants to turn. They wave me to say "Hey, you can go before me." This would be nice if I didn't have a problem with people who assume unnessary control of everything they possibly can. I am expected to do a little jog to say, "Hey, thanks for letting me go first."

Never mind the fact pedetrians DO get the right of way. Butmaybe I don't want the right of way. My rhythmm, my lil' stroll, is thrown off when I am walking and then I have to "jog a lil" for a car. Does anyone else feel it or am I just high maintence?

My solution- just go in front of me if our different paces show you will reach your destination before me. Or if I stop walking and wave you thru, YOU just go! OR don't expect me to "do a lil' jog" AFTER you wave me thru-

I never do the jog. I stay at my pace and maybe smile. Am I rude?

Bored people's problems...
