• Am I The A’hole? (AITA)
  • AITA He starts rambling on about nothing important but just acting very weird?

    AITA?
    I (F19) work in costumer service in a very public setting. People come up and talk to you all the time. That means anyone can come up and talk to you. My coworker was coming to relieve me from a shift and came about 15 minutes early. A minute or so after she came, a man (anywhere from 40-50 probably) comes up to drop off a resume, I take it to pass along to manager.

    He starts rambling on about nothing important but just acting very weird. I can’t really explain it. Like he would make random comments on our beauty, and how rude it was of my coworker to be looking at her phone while he was talking (she wasn’t on the clock yet). I don’t know how he circled back but he was talking about the resume and then asked for my phone number to contact me about the progress of it. I was very much in a time crunch for leaving (it was already past when I was supposed to leave). I said I could give him the business number and he was getting visibly annoyed. When I’m in uncomfortable situations, especially with men, I’m trying to think off all possible outcomes.

    My main goal was getting him to leave so he wouldn’t be bothering my coworker. So i reluctantly agreed and wrote my number on a piece of paper, very scribbled and hard to decipher some numbers. He was satisfied and left. I took a photo of the resume super quick while running out so I could block the number on it. I go to catch the bus. Once I make it home to quickly change for my thing, Snaps and texts from my boyfriend come in and he was not happy with me. We work at the same job and when he came in, that coworker (who’s quite a gossip and a pick me) tells him that I had given my phone number to another man with no other context besides a man came up, we were talking and I gave him my number.

    I was desperately trying to explain the situation and told him I had blocked the number, and I certainly wasn’t trying to flirt with a 50 year old man. He was very mad at me. I understood the situation didn’t look great but I showed him the photo of the resume to try and help my story. He believed me but was not happy that I had done that and told me I should’ve just told the guy off. I tried to explain more that is not that simple and he is not a woman so I don’t expect him to understand but I’d hope he’d have more trust in me at this point. This was months back and he still brings it up yelling when he’s mad at me for something (and it will be unrelated, like lack of dressing up to sit with him and watch tv). I don’t know what to do. Was I really that much in the wrong?
