I have a neighbor who continues to flirt and invite me over even though he knows that I'm gay and in a relationship. How do I deal with him?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:@Jude: “I was wearing a robe and nothing underneath (sitting on my back steps with my legs open. I’m such a lady!).” That’s just cruel. Seriously, though. Other than the robe incident, is it possible that you are misinterpreting friendliness for more? Regardless, you should be clear to him if a behavior is making you feel uncomfortable. For example, if he asks you over for drinks (I wish I had friendly neighbors), maybe you could tell him that you don’t feel comfortable doing so. He may be so embarrassed – even if he didn’t mean anything by it – that you might not get any more uncomfortable drinking invitations.
