What I’m trying to do is prevent this man from getting himself in trouble. I’m trying to protect people here. Calling him “creepy” does nothing, it just provokes him.
If anyone ever sees a situation like this, either take my approach or send them to me. No one did any wrong, no one meant anything. Everyone is forgiven. Now we have all learned what to do.
I feel bad for this guy. He just needs someone to show any sign of affection for him, but is being treated like a monster just for choosing the wrong place to look
Let it lie. Don’t say anymore. Things have been said that needed to be said. Leave it be and it will go away on its own. There has been an apology and forgiveness. Let it lie.
You are right alpine. Sorry
