My coworker got my number from another guy we work with. I never personally allowed him to have it. Is this bad?

Maybe?
I've never done it, so I don't know.

It's likely that he wants to reach out and get to know you without pestering you at work.

Ultimately, the decision is yours. As long as he's not being a douchebag to you, I hope you view it as him doing his best to make a connection.

In either case, best of luck.

He got my number and has been texting me about non work related items outside of work.

[Plinko]

Right, that's what I pictured.

But there's a difference between him trying to get to know you through (in his mind) the best method at hand.

And him sending sexual messages at you.

If it's the former thing, just know he didn't mean to offend you and let him know it bothered you.

If it's the latter, feel free to tell him to fuck off.

It's inappropriate of the other guy to give out your number so I'd definitely be speaking to him and telling him he better not do it again.

[Emiliamazing]

Not cool. If a Gentlemen wants your number, he should muster up the courage to ask you for it himself.
You should probably address this immediately

The other guy should have asked you if it was OK first in my opinion

[FilmGuy93]

It's not great, but that's not a totally unreasonable thing for him to do either.

What do you mean 'bad'?

[raqui]

It's weird. Block him if he calls or texts.
