OMG :eek: you are going to have to make it very clear to him to leave you alone. The problem is you are so nice and polite ! Make sure he gets the message !! Send him one message then block his number
Something along the lines of thanks for the drink but I've realised I'm not ready for a relationship. I'm sure you will soon meet someone else who can give you the relationship you are looking for and deserve.

That probably sounds crap but you get the gist. I'm rubbish with words lol. Just be very clear that you are not the woman for him - whilst doing your best Jedi impression lol

I hope you can get rid of him x

Thank you so much I was going to ask Steve and Andy to dictate something but I will use this. They did last night but he was too busy texting me and I switched the mobile off to get rid of him.

I am doing laundry and housework today and will forget all of this nonsense. I'm not scared of him and know lots of nice people at work who will help if it escalates. I don't think it will though.

Blimey, he sounds like a nightmare! I agree with the 'Thanks but I'm not really ready for a relationship right now" idea.....how horrible when you work with him. I hope it's worked and that your laundry and housework is going well!!!

I'm in a guano (lovely word) at home - I forgot to write that I was out at KW's last night, so had a horrible phone call from my parents, spent the rest of the evening in a bad mood, then came home and have been hiding in my room like a naughty teenager.....I know I should have made sure everyone knew, but I'm always at KW's on a Friday night, it's like it's written in stone.

Roll on May.....

Thank you both for your support. He's ringing but Im ignoring phone. I did reply once to say I did not wish to take our professional relationship any further. Lodger and the boys are finding the whole thing hilarious.

Kittikins hopefully your parents are calmer now. I hope you are both having a good evening. I put up my Christmas lights and am just chilling.

Christ he's coming on a bit strong isn't he! Hope you manage to get him to sod off. Sounds like an entitled little twerp - "I'll have kids with you and move in to your house", like you're supposed to go "OMG THANK YOU I've just been DYING for someone to say those words to me since forever!!!"

Shame you have to work with him, otherwise I'd suggest cutting him down to size with a bland "I'm not that desperate, goodbye".

Hello Vintage Historian, he stopped ringing me last night so hopefully it's over now. I'm just so surprised I thought he was an ok person like a friend or id never have gone for a drink. I just thought we'd be talking about work and Christmas. Well thank goodness it is over.

I did offer Steve and Andy Paddington bear this morning and asked them if I could have a cake from them to celebrate the birth of our child.

I woke up thinking it was Monday and now it is Sunday I am happy as we have a whole day of fun.

Bless you, I have a facemask on with any luck I will look like Cindy Crawford soon if a little shorter and fatter- I did some housework and will be ironing. I'm not doing any work work. My brain has shut down and we break up for hols on Friday so I will do marking over the hols.

I've bought some chocs (lots of them) for students so had to do a quality test to check their tastiness. So far I've had some mini-bounties but must NOT eat any more. Today is a chill out day too. It's raining outside and I wanted to get some nice food to eat but I am not going to the supermarket if it is horrid. I wonder if lodger will mind if I pinch an orange - I gave him Susan's spare clementines as the builder was going to pop by with some for me but he had to cancel hence, I have run out of fruit.

My friends have said they don't want gifts this Christmas (which is great as I don't have anything in my xmas fund) they just want to meet me for a meal more often (which I want to stop doing as it is sooo expensive).

Exhausting day at work. Creep pretended everything was fine and kept trying to talk to me. I just gave him dirty looks and cut any conversations dead when he started them. I was told to tell my boss as it might affect safety of anyone who is stuck in a taxi with him when we have socials.

Work was crazy. So glad to be home. Treated myself to a Chinese. Got house to myself as tenant is with his friends tonight.

I have been called into work to say bye to some classes as they have finished their work early. So I am doing a bit of tidying and hoping to find my address book so I can post some cards.

A nice lazy day.
