Unwanted attention dilema
25 Answers
Since i split up with my ex this guy had been texting me a lot asking me to go out with him. I either responded with a polite thanks but no thanks or just ignored his text completely, pretending id been so busy i forgot to respond.
I thought he had got the message until i received a text this evening asking me out on saturday. Ordinarily i would say 'Fosters off, you're grim' but i cant really do that for two important reasons. Firstly, he is good friends with my brother and other boss at work. Secondly he is also one of the head honchos for our biggest customer and as he frequently helps make sure they pay us large sums of money that they owe us I really dont want to pee him off in case he stops being so helpful in making sure we get paid.
I did tell my brother a while ago but he just thought it as funny and suggested i maybe go out with him but make it clear i just want to be a friend. But, i know from experience he will try it on (despite his fiance in america) and i dont want to be his friend, i dont even like the guy.
I know he can be a real sulky git, gets a strop on when he doesnt get invited to something my bro has arranged, even family things so what should i do to make him get the message without rocking the boat?

Tell him that if he doesn't back off, youll tell his fiancée - you don't get involved with people in a committed relationship. Stand your ground. You may have to rock the boat, but if you let him get away with it, he's taking advantage of your position in the company. It's not right.
Just say no and that you'd really prefer it if he stopped asking you as it makes you uncomfortable since you also work together. I think honesy might be the best in this instance as he's clearly not getting the message so maybe need to spell it out that you're never going to be interested. Either that or just change your number! (Kidding) :c)
Lol, some of these replies have made me chuckle. :)
I like the idea of telling him my last relationship was such a disaster it turned me to women. And only women who are arranged by my family.
Ive taken a bit of a chickens way out and told him im really busy this weekend with a date on saturday night. With a bit of luck he wont respond.
