I work at one of the big box retail stores. There's a mid-20's looking guy who will come in and follow me through the store at a distance, and he'll always be sure to check out where he would get to say something creepy and flirty to me. Have always stayed strictly professional. Annoying, but not exactly uncommon in retail. Last month he stopped me as I was coming back from break and said "You know I have feelings for you, right?". I turned around and said "Dude, you don't even know me." and it's only gotten worse now. Few days ago he came up to me asking if he could give me his phone number. I told him I'm not interested, and that I'm not gay. Day after that, he comes up and asks if we can be friends, I tell him no, I have plenty of friends, and I don't want him to be one of them. He sulks off.

Well, yesterday, while I was on break, this guy came in and was stalking around my usual spot where I work, just walking in circles and rubber necking to see if I was there yet. One of my coworkers finally saw him doing the actual stalking and she was extremely unnerved. Apparently he even dipped in and out of the bathrooms real quick near where I usually work, presumably looking for me. I'm glad someone else saw the actual stalking and had seen how creepy this guy was. She wants me to escalate the issue. I've told management about this guy a few times, but since I'm a guy being stalked by another obviously gay guy, and this is the deep south, they've mostly just shrugged off my concern, some even laughing about it when they thought I couldn't hear them. So if I end up being turned into a leather couch by this dude, y'all know what happened at least.

Maybe you should record his actions in order to show it to more people

This is what I was gonna say at first.

Or get someone else to do it.

TC must live in a relatively docile region of people.

Its time to go to HR. Being the first to report is important to controlling the narrative.

Fuck right off, life isn't an action movie. You never know about these people.

Thank you for the advice. I wish Norman Smiley got more credit for how much of a cool guy he is.

No, we won't fuck right off.

You're soft if you think fighting the guy or getting someone else to do it is has anything to do with "the movies".

That's exactly what I would do here.

Then you're an idiot or a keyboard warrior or both. I'm pretty sure I could whoop this guy easily but then what? What if his family/friends retaliates with more violence? I love in an extremely small town, it would be absolutely nothing for this guy to follow me on my drive home.

So I reported everything to our asset protection guy who looked the fella up on camera and knows what he looks like now. Yesterday morning, he (the ap guy) snuck up behind me while I was stocking some candy at the self checks alone and said in a mock gay voice "Hey, uh, I've been following you through the store and I was just wondering if I could have your number." I shot back with what the fuck is wrong with you and I don't find humor in that at all. He got serious after explaining that they'd do their best but what the FUCK! I left early, being so fucking disgusted that I wasn't gonna be able to function in front of customers. I knew they'd do this, just think of it as a joke.

Sounds like you should report the AP guy to someone. That was extremely unprofessional of him, to say the least.

Right. It's fucked up to joke about, but it's about what I expected here.
