Examples of ways I have helped: (1) Remove a large insect near her cubicle (2) Help to remove a work-related item of hers that fell into equipment. Male coworker has also said something along the lines of "[my name] can give you CPR" to her at her cubicle. I imagine she sees this as harassment, but I am confused because she is quite close to that coworker, even after that incident happened. I tried to defuse incident by saying something along the lines of "I don't know CPR" (our cubicles are next to each other). Was he just trying to playfully annoy her (since she doesn't like me, but they think I like her)?
I know she doesn't like me, because she seems to avoid me, and she has said mean things to me...

So then just give a sarcastic answer. Something they’re not expecting. If he says do you feel like a hero when you help women. Say yes of course. Maybe I can be your hero one day then walk off. You kill them w things like that. Or laughter. Then they wonder what the fuck is wrong w him (you). Don’t let it get to you. He’s probably got some issues, not your problem. Tell him oh I’m sorry I should have let you be the hero today. Maybe tomorrow. Dude sounds like a tool. If there a potential chance of violence on his end? Stick up for yourself. You sound like you just let him run all over you.
What is his problem?
I don't understand his or her behavior. One, his behavior is not professional. Two, why she continues to be close/friendly to this male coworker?
