I am very happy that I came to this site. I do feel strong enough to not start an affair. Tommorrow I have to work all day, and I know he will be there just because I am working. Sometimes we are the only ones in the office on the weekends. I am not sure exactly how to handle it yet or what to say when he tries to kiss me or whatever again(I will say no) but I want to be firm without causing too much friction at work. Currently I am seeking other employment, but I still have to keep this job until I get one. So if anyone could just please pray for me(anything would work) then I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

I'll be praying for you.

Is there upper management you could complain to about his behavior, or at least threaten to if he continues to be inappropriate?

Hi Rose, Unfortunately there is no one I can complain to. He has a lot of leverage in the company because he was the previous owner.

I prayed for you already when I first saw this thread. Will try to do it again this evening.
Is there someone you could take to work with you? Even your H?

Hi Starz, No there is nobody I could take to work with me. My H is incarcerated at this moment and will not be getting out until the end of September. I'm in a big old mess. Thank you for praying for me though, it helps more than you know.

THTanya,

Sounds like in the past you were not dissuading the "old goat". I am not saying you were leading him on, but not firmly saying NO!

You now need to firmly say NO!!! "Sorry I gave you the wrong impression, but I have done some hard soul searching and praying on this and I would like you to PLEASE STOP!!!"

This should not cause friction. The old goat is probably very used to it!

At some point he should take the hint.

Hope that helps. We will be praying for you.

Tanya,
Amen
That's done
God bless you and keep you. Give your burdens to Him. He'll handle it!

Hi Finally, Thanks for asking. I am doing fine. I haven't seen OM for a week. He has been calling my cell phone for 3 days and I am not answering. So it turns out he will not be the OM after all. I am grateful that I did not make that mistake. Eventually, soon I will be seeing him at work and I will just tell him that I am not interested. Also, I have a couple of job interviews next week. Hope all goes well. How are you?

T
