FTP, Mobile, Etc. Names have been changed for privacy. This will be long.
I work for a company that leases space out of a huge building. We are currently the only tenant. I cannot give many more details about what I do because it's very unique. (Not MLM, don't worry).
The operations manager, Geo works for Company A. I work for Company B, that leases space from Company A. Geo and I do not work for the same company. I'm the operations manager of Company B.
Geo is very talkative. Whenever I'm in my part of the building, he will come in and talk to me. Sometimes it is only for 3 minutes, but sometimes he will hang around for over an hour. I'm a busy person, so I don't have time for this. It started out being work related, but now he will go on and on about his personal life.
His coworkers started coming up to me and telling me that he talks about me non-stop. He thinks of me in very high regard and they're worried. Whenever Geo feels disrespected or upset, he will take it out on his employees, tenants, customers.. etc. He is known to drive tenants out of the building if he doesn't like them.
Geo has started to ask me to go out with him every single day for about two weeks straight. I have politely declined every single time, as I have a young child at home, and I'm newly engaged. I want to be home with my family. Geo knows this. He has met my fiancé and my child.
When I got engaged, I came in and told all of the staff for both Company A and B, and everyone was thrilled, but Geo left work early that day and was texting his employees things like "what did I do wrong?" And "I know signals when I see them". His requests to go out for drinks have increased and he will try and find me if he knows I'm in the building. I've caught him waiting outside the bathroom for me. If I'm on the phone, he will stand there and wait for over an hour for me to get off the phone, if that is what it takes.
He broke up with his girlfriend of 2 years for me, according to some of his staff. I never once have flirted or make any sort of remark that will say I'm interested in him.
His conversations with me have become uncomfortable. He talks about all the women he has been with and how he's always on Tinder. He brags about sleeping with women, and always mentions that he prefers red headed women in their early twenties (describes me). I always act busy or quiet. I never respond to this. I try to make it as obvious as possible that I do not want to talk about this.
All of his staff and part of mine have asked me about him. I've had to make it very clear on multiple occasions that our relationship is strictly professional. I broke down to one of my staff on Friday because he just will not stop.
I've told my fiancé what he is doing, and he is also uncomfortable. Both Company A and B are small business, so neither of the companies have much of an HR department. I don't know who to go to about this, and it's beginning to feel like sexual harassment because he doesn't leave me alone. I cannot block his number because I have to be able to contact him if theres a maintenance emergency, and sadly, there are frequent issues. We see each other every day.
If I make this guy mad, he can make my life a living hell. We only have 4 more months in this space before our company moves, but I'm scared that if I say the wrong thing, he will make me and my staff suffer.
What do I do?
TL;DR I work in the same building as my building manager and he wants to get into my pants, but I'm happily engaged and he doesn't care, even though I keep telling him no. He will make my life a living hell if I offend him.
