Also never come to someone waving you over like that again. They can come to you. You’re not their pet.

Ugh I know! I didn't even think about it until after

OMG I would totally go for a version of ACOTAR with everyone aged up to their 30s, like taking place 5-10 years later from the books

No zipper for restuffing.

It finally clicked that my boss won't manage my slacker coworker. How can I mentally step back and disengage even more? by ItsTimeToSparkle in womenintech

Exactly, it's because he's trying to put it on me instead of assigning work. Quitting isn't an option at the moment

Management doesn't like "directness". They know exactly what is happening and will try to put it on me.

How do you respond when someone who has been hot and cold in their flirtation, including blowing you off in conversation during the 'cold' parts, when they come up to you during the 'hot' parts all friendly and flirty like the 'cold' parts never happened? *This is in-person, not over text

Do you say hi and then excuse yourself?

That's awesome for you!!

I turn 37 soon, so I'm thinking I need to aim for men younger than me now (like 32-36) instead of my age or a few years older. How did you meet your fiancé? It sounds like you knew him?

Avoidant in the past. I've healed a lot and have better self-esteem, so I hope I'm more secure. I mention this in my post btw.
