  • Work is great, people are forced to talk to you

    Downside is the boundaries are narrower at work and if you do cross them, it makes the whole thing a lot more creepy and could have more potential consequences in a place that doesn’t just tolerate workplace sexual harassment.

    I do wonder how many guys are unaware of how creepy some things might be because of their own experiences. Like, I had a guy show up at my work before normal hours while I was alone to try to hit on me and did so by asking such wonderful questions as “are you alone?” and “how often are you alone?” (along with a consecutive series of several other similar flags). And yet I can’t help but wonder if he had no clue how creepy someone would find such. Honestly, I didn’t even think the interaction was creepy until I realized he was trying to hit on me without actually showing any interest in me beyond my body, when it would be alone, and its opinion on reporting SA. I don’t get how someone could possibly think that’s a good way to try to hook up with someone no matter how “friendly” or “nice” you are in the interaction, and yet that wasn’t the last time he tried. Maybe I just don’t get hook-up culture or something.
