This time it just happens to me a very flirty, aggressive gay man who thinks he can convert straight people...lol.

Personally I would get rid of him. I know you need the money, but I would argue that the stress over the situation is not worth it.
Has he paid for the 9 sessions up front? If so and you don't want to lose the money, an alternative might be to call him before his next session and confront the issue. Explain that you have become increasingly uncomfortable with your workouts due to the some of his comments and his inappropriate attire. Explain that you are happy to continue training him, but that he needs to refrain from discussing subjects of a personal/sexual nature and that he needs to wear appropriate clothing for his workout. IMHO, this will then either play out two ways. He'll apologize and that should be the end of the issue and you can deliver the remaining sessions (and then get rid of him) or he'll turn around and get offended/embarrassed and not want to continue. If its the latter and he asks to be refunded the remaining sessions, tell him that you cannot refund the sessions as he signed up to them and you are happy to deliver them, but only on the conditions mentioned. Won't be an easy conversation but I think you will feel better for confronting it in the long term.
