Today a work some guy was being super persistent.
After questioning my coworker about me while I was in back he finally asked if I had a boyfriend - to which she quickly replied, "yes, actually she does" (I appreciated her quick thinking, there) because she was picking up on his super creepy vibes.
He grabbed some paper & insisted on writing down his number for me "just in case", then waited around in the lobby for me. (She warned me of what was going on & asked me to stay back there.)
I was irritated, but didn't really care otherwise & continued doing my job, which included coming out front again & ignoring him until he left.
After "that" was over - my coworkers went on for a while about it. And that when things got weird for me. I jokingly added, "just so you know - I'll not ever be interested in anyone trying to give me their number here." (I didn't think it was that surprising of a thing to say) but they responded differently.
All three of them were shocked & thought I didn't mean it.
"But what if he's like a super hot fire-fighter?"
"What?! But you'll be alone for the rest of your life!!" ((A note of panic in her voice))
"You're not serious. How are you going to meet anyone?"
"Really though, I just don't care. I'm not going to be interested."
Finally a coworker was trying to be understanding & said, "she's going to go out and find him herself!" - thanks, but...
Society is so weird.
