old man

Today after work I met with my "client" for the photography. Just so you know he's a very skinny man about 50 something years old. First we went to the library to check the bullentin board. We then went to the country club to get info on the dinning hall. When we got outside the older man said he wanted to go to middleberry to take the pictures, do some shopping and go eat at the a&w. I just went along with it. I was thinking that this is kinda weird. Especially since he asked me what I wanted to do, when it was he who asked me to take the pictures.

When we got into Middleberry we first went to tj max, he got some biscotti sticks. We then went to hanafords where he got some more stuff. I felt like I was down in NJ going shopping with my grandma! weird. We went to the bank so he could get some more money and then drove into the village of middleberry.

There we first went to a bakery and I got a white chocolate chip cookie (it was pretty good), he pointed out the fancy restaurnats that are good places to go to. We contunued and walked around, went to the falls, took some pics, walked across the bridge, took some pics, walked around some more, went to some stores. We went to this one fancy store where he was talking to the woman at the cash register and she asked if we are having a good day and he said that we are. He then said to me, "I don't mean to speak for you". He put his arm around my shoulders and said "your having fun right?" then we got back in the car and went to the a&w. We got some food, talked, he asked if I wanted to find a country road to get some more shots. I said I probably shouldn't and need to get back home.

We got back into rutland, he asked if he could go to Tennybrooke so he could break a ten to pay me for gas. He came back and I asked him where does he live so I can bring him back home. With hesitation he told me that he knows someone who is trying to destroy his life and everyone he meets. So he told me to drop him off at the Main St park. I though this was pretty weird. The fact that he doesn't want me to drop him off at his house, but someplace close to where he lives. Before he left he asked if I would like to plan to do something else. I was cought off guard, I was not expecting him to say that. I said I don't know when I would be available I would have to check and see. He said "well Im busy tomorrow and saturday how about sunday I call?" I said "I'm not sure". He said "how about if you plan what we'll do and I'll call on monday". I said ok. He put his hand on my shoulder and said, I had fun today. He got out of my car, got his stuff, said bye and I drove off.

When I got home I talked to my mom and dad about it and told them I felt like he wanted to be my "friend". We all agreed that was pretty weird and he needs to stay away. My dad said I just need to tell him that Im not interested. plain and simple. I don't want to spend any time with him so I just need to tell him flat out. Hopefully if I tell him that he'll understand and won't bother me anymore.

Im guessing he's probably a lonely man but I am way too young for him. WAY TOO YOUNG! If he was around my age and fit my type then I would pursue. But he's not so please leave me alone.
