Um, Hmmm, no I typically would have stayed and smiled at him, encouraged him, knowing he is nervous in front of crowds. This was a complete 180 for me to abandon him and it was absolutely perceived by him as something different that I did. Not sure what he thought about it, other than he got up and bolted out of there when the meeting was over, did not stay to look at me or talk or anything at all.
I didn't glare at him from the back or throw darts with my eyes, I still laughed and smiled at everyone and everything like usual, I just physically moved my seat to be away from him and the front of the room to the back of the room.
