Yikes, Zen. That's so inappropriate and creepy.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I don't think he's dangerous or anything. I think he just wildly misread the situation. As in, apparently *everything I say* is a sexual innuendo. Like, when I'm standing outside in 85degF humid weather and sweating, and I'm putting my hair up, and he asks me why I don't let my pretty red hair down and I say because I'm hot.

Jesus. I'm in yoga pants and an old t-shirt, no make-up, glasses, and my hair's a mess. I AM NOT "HOT" RIGHT NOW. LEAVE ME ALONE.

I'm freaking out a little. He just called again and I answered, and he was talking about setting up regular maintenance visits which I had asked for, and that was fine, and then he was all, "I wish you were sitting here next to me". I told him this was a bit too much and I needed to go back to work, and I hung up. I guess I should have been more forceful, but frankly that scares me too.

My typing is crappy because I am on my Kindle. We have no internet or email at work and I cannot actualy do my job.

I say call the company now, Zenkitty, and then back it up with a letter.

Zenkitty,

I still think you should lock your doors. The whole things sounds really disturbing to me. This is quite a misreading of the situation. He shouldn't be coming on to customers anyway. Can you find another company to do the regular maintenance?

Jesus, now I feel like it was my fault for sending the wrong signals. When flirting goes past "innocent fun" to "serious" I don't know how to stop it. Especially if it comes with touching. I should be able to say OKAY STOP but I just freeze. I feel like I've already led them on too far and it's my fault. Crap, I'm actually shaking and I've got tears in my eyes. This is silly, he's gone now and I wasn't in any danger anyway.

That was not your fault.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Not at all your fault IN ANY WAY.
