Women of Reddit, what is your worst “Nice Guy” experience?

I’m late but this is a bit different cuz the guy was 70+ years old and I was 18.

I worked at Starbucks and he would come in alone and I thought he’s just an old man who’s lonely in life so I would always be very nice to him. There was a time where I wrote “have a nice day!” on his cup and the next day he came back and told me how it made his day. Never did I think he was interested in me in THAT kind of way. I assumed he would look at me as a granddaughter if anything. Never have i been flirty with him in anyway, just polite.

Well one day I’m at the drive thru and before a car had the chance to pull up, i see a hand stretch through the window and hand me a letter. It was from him. I open it up and he professed his love and asked me to marry him. I look up and see him standing inside the cafe staring into my soul. I got the creepiest feeling from him when I saw the way he was looking at me. I showed my manager the note and she just laughed. A couple days later he walks back in and hands me a thick envelope. And that’s when i tell him i have a boyfriend (i really did) and i didn’t mean to make him feel like i was interested in him. And he FLIPPED OUT. Started telling me that i led him on by writing “have a good day” on his cup and being nice to him. It’s strange but also kinda sad at the same time.
