It started out like another day...TW

Today is Labor Day and it started out like any other day. I got up, got dressed and thought that today was going to be a good day because I was going to my friend's church picnic and then having dinner and maybe even getting to see my boyfriend. The friend that I went to the picnic with does not know I was sexually harassed by our mutual guy friend but I think she assumes that because of how I feel about him something was up. My friend picked me up and we went to the picnic. She then asked me if I wanted to go get coffee and talk inside the coffee shop because it was colder and there would be no bees in there. I had to be home early so we just decided to drive thru and I know the person who sexually harassed me works there but it was my coffee place first and that he should be the one that has to leave not me. I have never reported him because I do not want ruin his life even though he has ruined mine.  So we go thru the drive thru and we see him sitting in his car before he goes to work. My friend flipped him off and it has now caused me to keep thinking about it. I told my boyfriend that I saw him and all that he said is that I need to find a new coffee place to go to. I then had to explain to him that it was the closest coffee shop and I started going to it before he even worked there. I have been able to be distracted by my family all night from thinking about it. But now at night as my mind starts to wonder it causes me to have flashbacks and upset about the whole situation.

My boyfriend also thinks that I should confront him about what to do but I have only talked to him in person once after the incident and told him never to talk to me again. 

if anyone has any suggestion on what to do when I do see him and if I should confront him about what he did I would appreciate the help.

Hope everyone has a great rest of the night/day.:)

Stich,

 He doesn't deserve the ability to take away your enjoyment of your favorite coffee spot.  I know how it is to be sexually harassed.  I had someone do that to me and I turned him in.  After all, it wasn't like I made it up,. Long story short, when someone does something like that you aren't ruining their life by turning them in.  It is a consequence for their own inconsiderate and ill thought action.  It is trying to protect someone who should be exposed.  If he gets fired, he threw his job away provided he did that at his current place of work.  He was wrong and he should know by now that there are consequences to follow. If you don't want to put your name out there, use a pseudonym.   Email corporate though one of those contact us pages if the company has that and go from there.  Also, this guy doesn't get to ruin your life.  He is not worthy of that ability.  You don't deserve to be harassed and you don't deserve to be degraded.  Sorry to hear his mind is sick enough to think otherwise,.  In the end, do what is best for you.    Keep looking up,.
