So I have my share of issues which many of you have read about. I am not so comfortable with setting bold and in the moment boundaries. I tend to freeze, get scared, and analyze 10,000 best approaches. Today at church I was head down and hands folded, praying. A man, over 20 yrs older than I who has been very interested in me, came from the back of the church. He had been watching me. He sat really close, through his arm around me, and leaned in really close. I put my head up immediately and he slid his arm down my back and rested it on my hip. I waited a moment because I though it may have been an accident, but he stay much longer than he would have had it been accidental. I adjusted myself to create distance, and immediately began pondering how to get out of the encounter. I found my way out after a couple minutes.
This man is so much on rebound that he doesn't even make the charts. Since we were both in the same divorce class, he knows a little about me, and probably feels a bit of intimate connection with me. I know he watched me because several people have pointed it out. He has offered me rides which I've refused. He announced that he spent all week thinking about me. He stared and grins whenever I pass by. I try to be cordial, but not friendly. But today's encounter left me a little shaken.
I guess I should be meaner, or what I consider meaner; but its just so against who I am. I'm nice. I love and help people. I don't tell them off. I guess I'm a but spineless.
