[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Am I the only one who thinks him ignoring her at the store adds to how creepy he is? I don't read this as politely backing off at all. I read it as taking the rejection out on her.

But then I've also had a stalker. If OP is creeped out, she absolutely needs to trust her gut and go to a different store.[/quote]

I totally disagree with you and I’m wondering what you think appropriate behavior would be? Maybe he was backing off because she blew him off outside of work (he didn’t approach her at his job despite having plenty of opportunity) perhaps he was respecting her boundary by waiting to see if she asked for help (which she didn’t). Even if he was interested in her he did everything correctly 1) approached her outside of the work environment and 2) picked up on her rejection and allowed her to set the boundaries (not asking him for help) other than simply not existing in her presence what exactly is this man supposed to do?  And FYI OP most definitely had a friendly relationship with this employee at some point, even if it was just casual hello/how are you at the store she has clearly spoken with him in the past.[/quote]

DP For me his mistake was saying "I think about you all the time." And to someone you barely know! That's so creepy and weird. I'm actually trying to figure out as a woman what would the appropriate response to that, even I DID like the guy and was interested in going out with him. He would have done better to just say "oh, it's funny seeing you here, how have you been, etc." Is the OP supposed to respond that she thinks about him too? Or say she's flattered? Like I don't even know what kind of opening that is.

So yeah, it's nominally better that he did that outside of work rather than at work, it's good that he backed off, and it's understandable that he now feels too awkward to help her, but if it were me I'd probably not even want to go to that store anymore.[/quote]
