A male colleague who is senior to me but not a direct manager asked me to do an errand/bit of work for him. He asked me to do this job and when he did this he cupped my face with both his hands and sort of stuck his face forward quite close to mine. I felt this was quite inappropriate and it made me feel really uncomfortable. I think I must have been a bit taken aback as I wasn't happy with it but was sort of too shocked to say anything. I've been stewing about it all day, I found it quite humiliating really and am now kicking myself for not telling him not to do that again. I have a long term problem with assertiveness and shyness etc and felt like in the last year I have got a lot better so it feels like a bit of a step back and a knock to my confidence. I also did a lot of questioning myself, like maybe I should just lighten up or whatever.

AIBU?
To find my colleague's behaviour inappropriate and be annoyed at myself for not saying anything at the time?
