I've been working at a "child care facility" for about 2-3 yrs now. The people i'm close with now are the same people that got hired around the same time i did - we're all about the same age - 3 girls (including me) and a guy. This guy is straight up very blunt and "horny"...he just says things and we're all used to his personality; you either play along with it or ignore it - he's very "open" with those 2 other girls (touching, etc...) but with me, i let him know my boundries and he's been respectful.
These past few months, I've been very vulnerable - been going through some "confusing adult issues". He was being sensitive to my needs but at the same time flirting more. One day, after a meeting, we ALL hung out and he made a complete disrespectful move on me. I wasn't intimidated but i just knew i didn't wanna see him for a while.
I let my boss know that I didn't wanna work/ be near him at that time. It happened OUTSIDE of work so it's not like she could do anything...but she did. She wrote a letter to everyone in the faculty talking about harrassment. I didn't want to get it THIS far. He's done nothing to me at work and i know she was trying to protect me, butit wasn't really any of her business.
One of those girls is just "disappointed" in me b/c i "told my boss"...she said that this guy will never be as "open and friendly" again...and she thinks i'm gonna get all of us fired...AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, MY INTENTION WAS NOT TO "RUIN" ANYONE, I DID WHAT I HAD TO DO AND I AM NOT INVOLVED IN MY BOSS' ACTIONS - going beyond what she had to do.
Do i do the wrong thing?
