If you went for a full body massage and the therapist looked you up to hit on you, would that be innapropiate?

Asked by joy20 (106points) December 2nd, 2010

I went in for a full body massage last week. I had never been to the place before. I had a guy and since then he has found me on the internet and has been hitting on me. Some of my friends are weirded out by it and others don’t think twice about it.

How did he find you on the internet? If you volunteered certain information that enabled him to find you on the internet, then obviously you shouldn’t think twice about it. But if he found you on the internet and you didn’t give him any information about how to find you… Yeah… In that case, it would definitely be weird.

If the two of you had talked during your massage to where you might have been comfortable with him asking you out at any time then it might not be too weird, he might have picked up on some sort of mutual attraction?

Has he contacted you directly and say “hey, remember me? I wanted to ask you out but…” If he’s just following you around online but not being direct then I’d steer clear.

Definitely a conflict of interest. If you’re OK with it, it’s fine. If not, see if the guy has a boss you can report him to.

That’s extremely unprofessional, and definitely not cool.

Of course that is inappropriate.

It kind of depends on the guy and why he’s interested?
If it’s cause he felt turned on while giving you a massage… I think that’s a little weird.
But at the same time, he does give a lot of people massages… so maybe he was just interested in you because it was you?
Maybe it’s completely innocent, and he didn’t want to ask you while he was giving you a massage?

See, my brain’s telling me all these different ways it’s not weird or wrong, but my gut’s with @lucillelucillelucille. He doesn’t know anything about you but that he gave you a massage. And then he finds you on the internet and hits on you? Not tries to get to know you on a person basis, goes right from client to hitting on you. I think that’s innapropriate.

if there is a licensing board in your state, I would report him immediately. That’s way over the line behavior, and possibly illegal. It’s called “stalking”.

It all depends if one the person being seeked is single and two if he is simply looking for a booty call. He may do this a lot and that would then be something to worry about. However, some people believe in love at first site and sometimes the original way you meet may not be fortunate. I mean its no big deal. If you aren’t interested than say loose my number and find another place.
If he continues to bug you than go to his employer.
He is taking a big risk, so either he is quite the looker and knows which customers are receptive to an invite and is simply a dog, or he really likes you and feels its worth the risk.
I think it just really depends on his intentions.

Don’t go to his boss first thing. If you don’t want to talk to the guy just tell him you want to keep the relationship professional. Don’t immediately jeopardize the guy getting fired because you tickle his fancy a little bit, give him a chance. If he gets weird then you can go to his boss and “fry his octopus” as the Chinese say (get him fired).

I say this because forgetting everything else, it’s just a guy hitting on a girl. The girl should make her own decision. The guy only needs to be punished if he takes his interest too far, don’t punish a guy just for trying to talk to a girl.

Unless you are interested, report his otherwise unprofessional and inappropriate conduct.

That would creep me right out, it is incredibly inappropriate.

It would freak me out if he found me out on the internet, man or woman-I guarantee he is a sex maniac, no matter how sexy he is; you may have the fun you want in the short term. But, make sure you have a speed dial to some big dudes, just in case.

Your question implies he has hit on you more than once by sending successive emails. If he sent you more than one email, that right there is pre-predatory behavior.
