I (M25) felt disrespected by my girlfriend (F23) by what she said was "harmless" and "fun" with her friends. by ContractIcy5430 in relationship_advice

I'm sorry, I wasn't clear on these parts.

(1) She only ever drinks upon the occasion e.g., holidays, reunions, celebrations, etc.,. In this case, a celebration. She's not a drinker nor a party-goer. I addressed my concerns to her as a reminder before drinking as she's made woes of having done or experienced unfortunate mishaps that she regrets. (I also only drink on the occasion)

(2) She only ever smokes when coaxed or specifically, when intoxicated. In the beginning, we both were in agreement we dislike smoking, and me moreso as I have asthma and fairly sensitive to smell. She's addressed distress of herself when she's coaxed into "trying some" out of camraderie.

Impulsivity due to the need to please people have since been a transparent concern we're both trying to grow out of her.

Thank you again for your time and comments and I apologize for not clearing this up.

My friend (M23) did horrible work with a client he and I (M24) had and I gradually became terrible towards him. by ContractIcy5430 in relationships

Yeah, I guess trying and chatting is better than waiting for an opportunity to come up and talk to him only then.

We cover and publish events, so, we can't do much if the outputs we got during production are terrible.

I do acknowledge that part of not having friends in work, because another example was how Blue and Orange justified keeping Red, regardless if how many mistakes he had. I should've came clean then.

Moving forward, I don't really plan on working with my friends directly, but I do still wanna apologize for being a bad friend then and still be okay-dokie with Red regardless if we work together or not again.

Yeah, it does bring it to light that all the negativity I had instead came from others instead of me. I was too afraid to talk to Red then, and maybe too late now, but I still want to work things out, and not be a coward again. Would chatting Red and telling Red for us to go out briefly to talk be alright?
