Okay well first of all tell him to stop, establish some boundaries. If he doesn't contact HR. You are an adult and should tell someone to stop if they are making you uncomfortable.
It is clear to me that he’s interested in you sexually.
Yea sounds like he's definitely heading in that direction. Probably be safe to keep your distance
He's flirting with you. It isn't harassment until you tell him to stop. If you are not interested, tell him, and if he doesn't stop, then it's harassment.
Hugging someone from behind isn't flirting; it's assault.
@EnglishEuropean You're an idiot.
You're an enabler.
@EnglishEuropean A hug is not assault. If she doesn't want to be hugged, she should tell him. At that point it becomes harassment. He's not groping her or harming her in any way whatsoever.
In a social context maybe it's okay. At work it's absolutely not.
Yes he is but have you told him to stop that your uncomfortable with it. I tell him to stop and if he doesn't I'd report him
He is advancing definitely.
You should check that are you giving some indirect hints.
How does he come to know about your lingerie coupon?
Think!
You'll find solution.
@kumaradit I can tell your heart is in the right place but you're inadvertently putting responsibility on to her when in the work place he should not be having that lingerie conversation. Also, a woman being friendly isn't a sign for a man to inappropriate conversations or touching. I said earlier that a hug or touching a shoulder in of itself isn't technically harassment because those actions depend on how the person on the receiving end feels about it. None of us have a right to touch anyone else.
If she said she was hugging him all the time and reciprocating similar advances towards him then I'd say they're both giving mixed signals on what is acceptable and not within their worl relationship. She did not indicate any of that from her end. So to that point she doesn't have to feel to blame for any of this. I don't think you intended this to be her fault but my asking her to check herself is implying that.
I talked about that coupon with a female coworker and she loudly asked me about that brand. He only heard our convo. Also, I have never indicated any form of physical touch.
sounds very weird to me and something i'd be raising as an issue.
you're not at work to be uncomfortable
Oh it definitely is harassment and I’d definitely bring it up to HR.. who knows how many other women he is playing these games with
Hell yes he is and he's a dumb ass too, because he can be reported and fired.
No sexual harassment, but he is trying to get your attention. It seems to be bothering you, so confront him about it and do it where others are nearby.
If he is making you uncomfortable then politely say so. He is definitely giving you signs of wanting more. Once you have explained it to him, if he keeps up, then it is harassment. At that point you can get a supervisor involved
The forced hugging is definitely beyond the pale. However I think it would be fair to explain to him that his behaviour is unacceptable before reporting him to HR (which would obviously be the next step).
Since you don't like it, tell him to stop, that it makes you uncomfortable. Only if he continues should you report him to HR as sexual harassment.
Sounds like it is a try-on. It is harassement if it is unsolicited.
This is why American dating (Western Dating actually) is DEAD.
Men, do yourself a favor and go overseas. When women are this sensitive about a shoulder touch, it's time to LEAVE
I think he is interested in you, but that is not harassment unless you don't like him and he knows that and does it anyway. Just tell him to stop if you want to.
Sexual harassment through and through honey. Report to HR
We all wanna fuck 19 year old girls yea it's true so yea he is hitting on you. If he is taking it too far tell him to stop.
It is weird, but I feel like you should let the guy know and if he doesn't stop go to hr. If it is sexual in nature and you feel uncomfortable then it's harassment.
Hate to break it to you but this is usually what happens to voluptuous people like myself and you just comes with the territory I’m a guy so I fucking love it (when it’s women) but you’re a girl so you should report that shit pronto
