    What, you don't have any gonads? It's perfectly fine to not converse with someone who irritates you. You're not obligated. Put him on mental Ignore.

            Considering he's a management type guy at the company, I don't think giving him the silent treatment is a good idea.

              He knows I'm "engaged". I'm not out at work.

                  Slippery slope. For all you know, he's seriously dialed into the active-yet-closeted lifestyle and you're the one that set off his gaydar.

                    Yes, it could potentially be career-limiting. It's not relevant to work so I don't bring it there.

                      I presume that has applied to past employers as well (this one isn't special for some reason)?

                          Good job. I wouldn't expect someone to bring in their whips and shackles to work either, no matter their sexual persuasion.

                            I must say I am surprised by that.

                            Not that I disagree with your premise, but being "out" and being in your face are two different things.

                            x-post with Sloww - He refers to the "in your face" part...

                              It wouldn't be like that anyway. It's some sacrifices I make -- eg, I skip Xmas parties and the like as spouses are supposed to be there. Plus I hate them anyway.

                                It started back at my last company, where one of my managers was known to be very, very Christian and another was a devout Mormon.

                                And I just keep it up now since I never know. My current manager is originally from rural Saskatchewan...
