A work manager (43M) asked me out to drink. I (29F) reported it.

So in my past history I was approached by a 55 yr old manager when I was 26 and it ended in an emotionally abusive relationship. I am still deeply affected by it today.
An assistant manager messaged me on fb 3 days ago throwing out hints that he wanted to know if I was single and telling me he sees tons of potential in me and wants me to work with him so I can be a lesser level of manager. Our chat ended there.
Yesterday I woke up to a text telling me he hopes I'm doing better than him. He started talking about how he hates being single and how its led him to alcoholism. He said he thinks I'm the one who gets him and was asking questions like jokingly asked if I'd marry him. He asked me to do shots with him at a bar that night and then follow it to a hot tub place that's known for being a hot spot where people have sex but we did not discuss having sex. This immediately took me back to what happened before and I was not making that mistake again so my instinct was to go to the manager who I trust the most and get her 2 cents. She told me not to go, block him and give our chat logs to the head manager. I wrote a statement and am giving the chat logs and letting them decide what chat they need to have with him.
My friends are making me feel like I was wrong to speak up because of the personal problems this guy is having in his life. I talk to them Sunday. What do you think I should do?
Tl;dr An assistant manager at my job asked me out and I reported it. People are making me feel like I was wrong to do so.
