Where everybody knows your name

All of the guards at the University know my name and it kind of freaks me out.

Now, I'm generally a friendly person, and so I'm not usually freaked out by people knowing my name. I make a point to greet people, ask about their families, all of that. This freaks me out because back in like December I had a long conversation with one of the guards as I was waiting for a taxi to take me home (I had come in on the weekend, hence no bus). During the conversation he heavily hinted that he would like to date me (although not aggressively enough to cause alarm or say anything to his superiors), and found out my name. The next monday, all of the guards knew my name. I decided it might not be a good idea to come in after hours anymore (especially after another incident involving a taxi driver who came to get me when I worked late one night and stopped the car on the deserted road and tried to get me to kiss him. ewww...)

The original guard doesn't work here anymore, I'm finding that even all of the new guards know me by name. And they get a strange look in their eyes when they greet me. Which kind of creeps me out. Because I really wonder what that first guard said to everyone to make them remember my name...
