He gave me the "I'm like that with everyone" excuse, the "I did not mean anything with it" excuse, the "Have you had problems like this before that you're overreacting" line. I told him it's not fair to put this on me, all I wanted was to draw the line and could he please keep to that when I am asking him to. Ok, I guess he will now.

Sigh. Is this really so hard to understand? What's ok and what's not?
Ugh! That "I'm like that with everyone" is no excuse at all. His behaviour was completely inappropiate. I love the way he tried to deflect it back onto you with "have you had problems like this before" line.

I think you did the right thing Mari. He needed to be told, the creep.
