I worked an agency shift today with a man i haven't met before, but looks a similar age.
Spoke to him briefly during the shift, seemed friendly.
He happened to be getting the same bus home as me and he asked for my phone number whilst waiting.
I said, what for work purposes? And then he said no no so I said I have a partner I'm not interested in that way, I will give you my WhatsApp on a friends basis.
For whatever reason I did, I think I should have said no but I guess I felt awkward with him having to then take the bus with me.
He then rang my number to see if I got a missed all so I couldn't have given him a fake.
I'm thinking shall I just ignore if he messages?
But what if he's just trying to be friendly and it's platonic?
If it were a woman I wouldn't think twice about it.
I just wonder if he'd have asked if I were 67 year old Jane size 22.
