Girl at work
Got a strange email from a girl at work today, she works in another team. She sent me it saying 'why do you keep on looking at me'? I replied saying that I wasnt aware that I was and that I am sorry if she thinks I was. I wasnt perving at her, just glancing at her in the canteen. Wasnt really looking at her. Anyway, she sent me another email saying was it true that I was sending porn to another person in the call centre. I said no, as I didnt like the banter from that person anyway, and wouldnt email them. Wouldnt email porn anyway! When I got back home, I saw that she has taken me off her friends list on Facebook. Not bothered about that but I am a bit worried that she might start mouthing off to her friends that I am a sort of perv, which I am not.
Any advice would be appreciated.

I would forward the mails (including your replies) to my manager so they have it on record just incase she was to start anything.
Succint and correct
If that is the case I would also say to stay the hell away from her lol
I wouldn't even do that, I would blank her, she sounds like trouble.
email her back and say to meet up in the Photocopier room for sex. :rolleyes:
Ignore and forget her.
Has she been watching too much Bridget Jones?! (you might not get that!).
Anyway, I would be careful. You are right to worry that she will tell her friends and before you know it, it will be going round the office that you send porn to girls and stare at them.
I think you should approach your Manager as suggested and say you aware this has been typed in an email and is now on your work computer and hers. Tell your Manager you are very worried that she is tainting your reputation and you would like him to have a word with her and assurance that she is not slandering your name.
The fact she has deleted you from facebook says to me that she has been told you are some kind of pervert. Sorry to say that, I don't believe you are but I worked in an office for years and you need to be careful of what gets passed about over email systems and slanderous words been said about you.
:eek::D:D
You should make an attempt to speak to the girl and clear things up as soon as possible.
And stop with the staring!
OP ^ this is the right answer
These days, unfortunately CYOA is the way to go.
If, as you say, you have nothing to hide, then as to speak to your LM today and forward her emails and your replies. This was very good advice. Don't just ignore her or the situation. You can't resolve a problem by hoping it will go away.
Agreed. Stay the eff away from her and do not contact her, under any circumstances.
If anything else comes out of this, her friends talking about you, I would threatnen them with legal action, if they have proof, bring it forward, if not, do them for slander
There was a girl convinced I was staring at her and her friends and I knew nothing about it until she sent me a note in Geography class saying "Please can you stop staring at me and E. Its getting kinda freaky." I later found out she was calling me a "pyscho, lesbian b***h" behind my back (am I allowed to use that word on D.S?) She ended up bullying me even though i was neither staring at her, or the other thing that she called me..
i think it was an attention seeking thing.
That seems rather extreme!
Deleting your FB account as a result makes you look like you have something to hide. If you know you did nothing wrong, carry on as normal and let them talk. Your actions will speak far louder than 1-2 people talking crap about you.
I'm in HR and I would encourage any employee to follow this ^ advice. If it all blows up you need an audit trail and to have reported this to your manager and HR as soon as it started. Don't follow up anything with her re. Facebook etc, and keep well away. Hopefully it will all blow over. You've no idea of the nutters we get in the workplace and in my role, forewarned is forearmed.
Where did you pick that up from? Can't see it myself, and am just wondering what I've missed...
