What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
One day I received easily 30-40 text messages from my Chiro - someone I have had a professional relationship with for over 12 years. I made it very clear I was not interested - he shouldn't be talking to me - he needed to stop - he can't call me babe. I never saw this coming. I never felt uncomfortable when he provided me services, etc... My question is - if I were to file charges with the powers that be, 1) what would happen to him professionally - 2) is this considered sexual harassment? It hasn't happened since, and I made a phone call to him that following Monday to "address" the issue and that he cannot communicate with me in that manner ever again. I also had to do the same, when his snooping wife found his phone bill and called me. I saved all text messages to cover my butt - as a professional, I cannot have an angry woman making things up, and he is aware that I saved messages, as well. He has apologized - twice now - and supposedly admitted to his wife, he made a poor choice texting me. Do I let this go?
Thank you
