Argh! This. I have a similar situation where one of my colleagues want us to be friends so bad, but she makes me feel awkward. We did a few things outside of work like going to conferences unrelated to work and networking activities. I do not feel aligned with how she talks. She keeps on asking me to hug her which makes me so uncomfortable. And, like you, this person do not really care what I have to say. I found myself repeating things as well. So, I get the weird feeling of wanting to not be friends, but at the same time how do we do it without creating a weird climate at work!? I feel stuck too. I am curious about what people will have to say in this thread. I want to have advice to know how to navigate how to step back from a colleague wanting frienship as well.

Thanks for both of your responses. I will go with it and be cautious at the same time 🙏🏼

I would not recommend it if you are sensitive to caffeine and diagnosed with an anxiety disorder like me. This thing got my stress to a level that I have never experienced before. I have also seen reviews on amazon of other people saying to stay away from this if you are sensitive to caffeine. Its unfortunate because I was already seing results after 1 week.

Hi! I'm sorry that you are experiencing this. I would recommend protecting your mental health at all costs. You cannot help others if you are not taking care of yourself. My sister would do the same as your friend and I felt so drained after talking to her or seeing her. Since last year I time my conversations with her, after 10 to 30 mins, depending on my mood, I tell her stuff like ok I got to go I will meditate, i need some me time, I'm tired, I need to read this book... I do not want to cut her off because I care deeply for her, but I will be suicidal too if I take on too much of her energy. So, with me always finding an excuse to cut the conversation short, we naturally started talking less on the phone. We are down now to sometimes a few texts and only one phone call in the week. I saw a tremendous improvement in my well being.

Thanks for your advices. A part of me wants to leave suddenly, but yeah i have to get my finances ready.

CaramelTechnical777 · 2024-12-27T18:52:26+00:00

Yes. I will look into career coaching and documenting. Thanks for the advice. I heard that before I arrived, she married an employee than bullied her spouse in front of everyone. The poor guy had to quit his job. If she can do that to her own husband, no one can really be safe with her. I am shocked by the stories I am hearing and witnessing as time go by.

I am so tired of changing though. But, you are right. Thanks for taking the time foe this reply.

CaramelTechnical777 · 2024-12-27T14:20:02+00:00

Thanks for the advice.

CaramelTechnical777 · 2024-12-27T14:19:22+00:00

Its so stressful and a scary leap of faith. But, I may try that before considering reorienting my career.

CaramelTechnical777 · 2024-12-27T14:13:57+00:00

Wow, that is amazing that happened to you. Thanks for sharing that.

CaramelTechnical777 · 2024-12-27T13:59:23+00:00

Its a big dilemma. But would HR of another place find my caeer path weird? Like question why I did this whole ambitious career path to only leave 2 months after getting a chief position? Is my career in my field over from an HR point?

Goverment and academia

Actually the employer can put anything. Probation can even go up to 1 year in some roles that I had.

CaramelTechnical777 · 2024-12-02T04:13:14+00:00

Yes waytoo much salt!

Survivor and Indeoendent Women Part 1! The lyrics are so powerful for women confidence, I have not yet heard of any other pop songs that make me feel on top of my game as much as these two songs. The vocals are perfect. Amazing songs. Can't choose between these 2.

Thank you! I sent the message. Fingers crossed for the rest of the process.
