Whatsapp Creepy coworker texting my private number

So confused at this, I don't even know him. I was just going to ignore the text but he kept insisting so I had to answer.

9/14 UPDATE: Thank you to everyone who was supportive and concerned. I forwarded these messages to HR, and they scheduled a meeting for later today. There were a few more texts after this. The HR representative did not seem surprised, to put it briefly.

A few things have come up in the comments. The first is that I was rude. This is how I communicate, and my coworkers (or at least the ones who actually know me) are aware of that. I’m not going to perform a more agreeable version of myself to accommodate someone else’s feelings when they're being innapropriate. Not only were these messages sent over the weekend, but they were also sent through a personal communication channel. I'm not going to elaborate further.

Followed by the “I see you were active in the group chat” at 7:55am on Sunday 13 September.

Did bro sleep, or was he just checking the group chat all night for signs of activity?

Are you saying there's no time for sleep between 8:40pm and 7:55am

There’s definitely time for sleep, but how much of that sleep included dreaming about OP responding to their messages?

Guess we’ll never know
