gym stats

[boogieshoes]

so finally made it back in to the gym today, and i did:
3 miles on the reclined bike
time: 18.50ish.

my feet and muscles hurt, which is good, but eesh.

in other news, i felt the need for a worry stone today for the first time in *years*.  before GW, i kind of walked into the trash/bathroom guy at work making a pass at me.  i didn't realize he was going there, and i didn't mean to lead him on, but i'm not attracted to him, and he managed to push all my paranoia buttons by asking me if i'd date him right *after* he determined i was all alone in the area, *and* after he started the conversation by admitting he couldn't remember my name.

i don't think i've done anything flirty or whatever, but i let it go and figure i'm over-reacting.

today, he changed his route on the second floor to come past my cubicle - usually he goes up the middle.  i still don't think he's dangerous, and i still think i'm over-reacting, but he's hitting all my 'oh shit!' buttons, and i don't know how to let him know it's not appreciated without making a big deal over it.

the sad thing is, if i gave him any 'signals' at all, it's because i talked to him like he was an equal, not an inferior

this afternoon, i kept wishing i had a Buck Wilmington handy to take care of this problem for me.

Just ignore him completely. If he continues to go out of his way to talk to you, then he's really trying to hook up and it's not in your head. In which case, just tell him firmly you are not interested. Don't smile or be nice about it, just be direct. If you don't want to do it, have a word with HR, who can have a word with him. {hugs}

*hugs* thanks. he didn't alter course today, so maybe he's figured out i'm not interested. but i'll keep your advice in mind, because i suspect i'll have to act on it.

Seconding Slavelabour's advice about the HR. If you tell the guy no, and he keeps coming around, then don't hesitate to tell the HR person.
