was he just after a little skin-on-skin...?
We met as a result of my posting on another website, seeking work. He was taken by something I wrote in my self-promotion (which included a head/shoulder photo of myself). He called my number and told me that whilst he had no job to offer, he really wanted to meet me. So I met him at his place of business, we chatted for awhile, then I left.Today he called up and invited me to lunch, cook me a steak, have a glass of wine and chat. I agreed, and told him don't get any big ideas. He said for ME not to get any big ideas. Anyway, I followed him in my car to his apartment and he got the food in the oven to cook and went for a quick shower. We chatted easily again, though I did most of the talking and he offered nothing about himself (which I realised during the course of the afternoon), and I didn't ask. If he wanted to disclose his life and experiences he would have offered them willingly. We watched the news headlines about the floods and the tornadoes in our state, then he asked me if I'd like a dance. I declined, said it was too old fashioned (and it just wasn't something I felt comfortable with). I changed the subject, then he suggested 'what about a neck rub instead'. I declined. There was no way I was leading this dude on (he is actually rather refined and cultured, the opposite to me!). After about another 20 minutes of tv news he announced that he wanted to get some sleep...my cue to leave? I said I'd better get going before the weather became too extreme to drive in. He agreed and told me what button in the lift to press to get to my car.... no walking me to the lift or seeing me down to the underground car park.... was he maybe just looking for a little bit of quick 'romance', a bit of an afternoon of reward?

coming from guys, that is the feedback I was hoping for, now I don't feel guilty or rude for not taking on his suggestions...the other prospect was that maybe he thought he was offering me company that I might have been pining for (he hoped) and that by accepting his suggestions I'd be catering to his needs too? ... Just a thought...
I mean, for crying out loud, I'm 54 next week, not a hormonal-charged youngster who can't refuse a bit wherever I can get it! I just thought he was disrespectful, more than anything. As soon as he placed his hand on the back of my neck when he asked what music I liked, the alarms went off
To date, I have funnily heard nothing from this fellow, even during yesterday's cyclonic deluge and cut power...if he really was considerate, wouldn't he have fired off a text or phone call to see how things were, this end? Yep , his lack of caring speaks volumes! I shan't be taking his calls anymore and I doubt he will be ringing me to ask me to do (paid) jobs! makes me wonder if he has rooted his female car detailers to keep them in their job! He owns a car hire company, and told me initially he might have some work for me 'up the track'... hmmm, now it is all coming together
