Dealing with an adult bully.
More than adult. He's close to 65 years old. Guy lives on a pretty nice boat with his wife, both retired years ago. He's a hardcore republican/trumper, yet wife has been collecting disability for 'depression' for 20 years. Has a new truck, and a couple smaller nice boats.
He pretends to be friendly, but in group texts with 10 other people tries to tell them what to do, when I respond with a question about something else he says "what does that have to do with xxxx" (the thing he told us that I completely ignored, because he has no say in that). Last week he went and wet his thumb with sweat and rubbed it on the part of my car where the camera is (it's a tesla). In the past he has talked about his hate for democrats and the North East. I'm not a super left person, he knows I think Donald and Elon are terrible people, I'm also not on the right at all.
I just don't understand why a retired dude with plenty of money is sitting there starting shit with a younger (40's) dude who works hard everyday and just wants the weekends at the marina free of bullshit. He fails to be able to, or just doesn't care to, understand anyone else's perspective but his own.
Edit: This is where I keep my boat on the weekends. It was a marina wide group text with boat owners. I also forgot to include that he will say "I just mess with you because I like you" which of course I've always viewed as a bunch of bullshit when people have said this to me over the years.
