Word that means "almost collide with me"
The red guy is looking at the blue guy.
Case one: The red guy violently dashes forward and collides with the blue guy.
The blue guy says:
He collided with me!
Case two: The red guy steps forward, and almost collides, but doesn't.
The blue guy says:
He ??? with me!
The most obvious replacement would be almost collided, but I am looking for a one-word solution. Is there a word that means "almost collide" that would fit in this context?
Solution 1:
"The red guy approached me." (No contact/motive unclear)
"The red guy engaged me." (No contact/menacing implied)
