>>> A former coworker had a very effective way to deal with unwanted touching if you can pull it off effectively (I never could). She jumped a mile in the air and shouted EEEEK, then said that he had startled her.
<<< Neat! Carol Burnet scared a would-be mugger into the "next century" with that technique. It was in the 70's and she was walking alone on the streets of Manhattan at night. She didn't get a scratch on her and lived to tell the story on her weekly show.
Note: many analyst types label teasing as veiled-anger. Elle can tell him that she can't be around him any more if he's gonna continue to take his hidden-anger out on her. If he puts up a fuss, she can tell him that he is 50 years old. He has grown up skills he's wasting on teenage locker-room humor. Gardengirl is right. He's acting like a two yearold. Just some observations, no real advise.
