Well...I have been struggling with this for months now. The married I am referring to is also a public figure (appears on t.v. regularly ), and about 15 yrs my senior. I have not been able to discuss this with anyone, since most people who know me would know who I am talking about and I do not want to stir up drama or rumors so I have been trying to discern his intentions myself. So I need some advice...I need to know if he is acting inappropriately, and how to handle it discretely. He makes me feel uncomfortable when I am around him (which is not common for me). But since there are so many people around him I try to convince myself that this is just his character, just very friendly/concerned. Okay...so why do I question his intentions...so far he has 1. Rubbed my bare back/neck and asked, "If I was okay". Maybe he knew something I didn't know....but I nervously (because he was touching my neck) responded "yeah, I'm okay". 2. Invited me to work for/with him. This hasn't panned out, since I didn't pursue it. Although he pursued it with his staff rather aggressively. 3. When I am in or enter the room (big room with lots of people) I feel that his eyes follow me. I pretend I do not see him and if possible I leave the area or room. 4. During a conference on 3 separate occasions while in conversations (professional small talk) with other men (who I really didn't know). My conversations would be interrupted by one of 'his people' he would send over. Most times discretely requesting that the gentleman come over to see him (he knew them). This incident (after I caught on) really upset me because I didn't know if it was something I had done.
I must add that my professional 'relationship' with him is definitely a plus, as it is for other people including women. However, I don't know if I should continue to pursue a professional relationship with him if he is behaving inappropriately.
What do you think?.......
