I'm really not sure if I can call the police. I think if something happened I would go straight to my doctor and report it to him.
I know it will trigger me with my past abuse.
I will think this through.
look he might not do anything to me
but at least I have a plan
but yes I'm scared @MummaMia

Hello @BlueBay
Its very normal to feel scared and unsure in a situation like this. Speaking to your doctor is also a good idea and it seems as though you know to expect support from him. I would also familiarise yourself with the workplace policies on sexual harassment. Glad to hear that you are feeling empowered and have a plan.
take care

HI @BlueBay
This person cannot touch you and if he/she does you have the right to fend them off. This means you are allowed protect yourself with any means necessary, first issue indications of warning, second, apply force to restraint or self-defence. Make sure you are in sight of onlookers as witness to your defence. all the best.

Hi ther @BlueBay
yeah thats great dont let it get to you although tomorrow you will face the music. Just call in sick if all else fails and then when the bosses ask why, you tell them becoz of the creepy old man at the window looking within hurts your existence. thanks

like I said use force to restaint, maybe the fridge door or toaster. Whichever path you take, make sure there are other around watching. Thanks
