Dear Abby: I'm a single woman. A friend who is a carpenter hit on me while he was working on my deck. I rejected him, saying I respected his wife. Now he won't finish the job I hired him to do. Advice?

I hired a friend to build a deck for me. When I turned down his advances, he refused to finish the work.

The husband in a couple I know builds decks. I hired him to build one for me. I always held him in high regard for his relationship with his wife and how he treated me as a woman and a friend. He was a rare true gentleman. Then, one day while he was here building my deck, he hit on me. I flat-out told him no way, and that I respected his wife and marriage more than he did. Needless to say, I was heartbroken and disappointed.
