Oh and an older male colleague rubbed my belly

[papie]

At the Christmas lunch today. This is not a guy I am close to at all, like I can have a 10 minute awkward conversation and that's it. He is in his late 50s, maybe even 60ish.
We were at the same 10-12 people table. When he left, he was standing behind me (I was still seated) waving around and then leaned in and gave my belly a rub and said "bye you, take care!" Not a pat. An actual rub like you'd rub a dog's head. I AM NOT KIDDING.

:-O

the more I think about this the more bothered I am. I probably would have yelled "Don't touch me!" and I am not even kidding. It is making me panicky lol.

I often wonder how I'll feel about this if/when I get pregnant one day. I'm socially awkward enough that I picture the exchange going horribly, punctuated with uncomfortable laughing on my end.

I was too stunned to say anything. And it all happened so quickly too. My friend sitting next to me gave me a wtf look and he was gone.

That's cute he is happy about your baby but what a doorknob about touching YOU! Duh!

GAH! It's a good thing I was never pregnant. Severed hands would be flying. It would be like something out of a Tarantino movie.

JFC - it stuns me that people do this.

Gosh, that's disturbing.
