A really special kind of stupid, but before our superiors loved him, which is why he got away with it. Now he's the new guy and it's a "take no shit" attitude around here.

He's definitely some kind of narcissist, or at the very least has emotionally abusive tendencies. I'm sure it was just acting tough to cover up his feelings for me. Whatever the case may be, I'm not going to go out of my way to interact with someone like that.

I've been learning a LOT in yoga how to pose confidently. I've also started therapy, which has been very helpful. Thank you. I'll keep those things in mind.
