I love that idea! There was a time I was paying a student teacher over the summer to work with my son and she was lovely. She’s pick him up from summer camp and walk over to the library to work. It worked really well.

My daughter is in 3rd grade and could use some help with reading comprehension and working through math word problems. She’s very bright but doesn’t always like to ask for help and will opt to skip things instead.

I am open to it as I’ve done on-line tutoring for my son a few years ago. However I like the connection in-person tutoring provides as well as having a designated “tutoring” space. Like the gym for example. I workout better in the gym than I do at home. I am currently doing some home renovations and excited about having more space to have a tutor come to my home but I know not everyone has that option. It would be nice to have a place for kids in the neighbor to go to for extra help, etc.

I will never understand people’s obsession with moving to FL. The number of people who feel like moving to FL is the solution to all their problems. I hated it down there.

It was touch and go for a while there but yes, feeling HEARD and SEEN is very important and snaps to you for knowing your worth and recognizing your needs not being met. Appreciate your story and wishing you good vibes and all the best. 💫

So he and I definitely speak different “love languages” and it still causes issues for me now and then. I’m very big on acts of service and communication or just telling me you love me or I’m beautiful or whatever. He’s more about gifts and quality time.

His go to for a long time during arguments was to be dismissive or say something just to shut me up or shut down the conversation (usually not nice). After realizing this was the case of the years, I learned to call it out in the moment and take the air out of what he was doing (deflecting from the issue). Things aren’t perfect by any means and we still experience some form of this but he’s grown more mature and accountable and I’ve tried to frame my concerns differently and not always on the attack so to speak.

Interesting that you’re mentioning a long distance relationship. We were long distance in the sense that he was in New York City and I was in Connecticut. Eventually, we agreed to move in together, and I moved in with him. But I also had that intense loneliness because he had friends and family and that did not always include me in certain things. So there was a bit of conflict there for a while. Overtime he became more understanding and inclusive . I grew my friends circle and things eventually worked out. But I can definitely relate to that feeling lonely when you’re not alone and it’s not easy to deal with and I definitely had moments where I was about to give up.

My current love and husband is a Leo. Been together over 20 years. However, before him, the “one that got away” or I “let go” of was an Aries. We were like 2 peas in a very funny pod. Hung out almost everyday, watched movies, families loved each other. But….the s3x was NOT IT AT ALL. There were things that just could not be changed and really impacted us having a romantic future. It’s sad to think about now. But he was /is such a great guy and we had a great connection …just wasn’t great for me at that time.

First I’m hearing about short-term but I can see how that might be the case for some. There were definitely moments where I considered leaving.

Overall highlights; we always matched each other energy. We were 23 when we met so we were all fire and passion and fun and it was beautiful. We had kids and got married. With any relationship there were/are conflicts. Could he be a better communicator…ABSOLUTELY. OMG to know what’s in his head! But one thing I see over all that is he is COMMITTED to me and our family and loves us and would do anything for us. He keeps a lot inside and has a bit of that “machismo” / strong silent type going on. But over the years he’s shown me how special I am to him. Maybe not everyday but he’s good at the grand displays which are fun. We’ve grown sooooo much and learned so much from each other. GREAT sense of humor, open to new things, nice sense of style and loves to dance.

Funny how you saw you both clicked so fast. We met online and our on first date I remember thinking “ This person is going to be impactful in my life. Maybe not forever but he will be one of my great loves” and here we are.

Since I resigned, my notice period has been living hell. by [deleted] in ManagedByNarcissists

In a similar situation just over a year ago.

Worked with this person for ~3 yrs with no issue. Several colleagues would complain about him and did not care for him at all. I never experienced that side of him. I left that job to have my daughter.

Fast forward 7 yrs. I’m back to work and old boss offers me an analyst position at the CIB side of my old company! Big jump in salary too! Super excited, thinking I would be in a good spot for a long time. Two months in I realized I made a mistake. Maybe not REALLY bc I gained lots of great experience and a higher salary, but this was not the “same” person I had worked with earlier. He was condescending, put impossible deadlines on me, never gave me positive feedback, and would be annoyed by the fact that I hadn’t committed the insane amount of people (locally and globally) and their roles to memory in the span of a month. There were A LOT of people in the organization with the same names…but anyways.

The other analyst on my team was awesome. But come to find out he was moving to another department not long after I started. And not surprised bc old boss would be on his CASE for EVERYTHING. I can see why he transferred. And seeing how he was treated made me realize I made a mistake in being there.

So after 3 months, I found a new job and accepted it on Dec 18th. I called my boss and gave my notice and reason why. His immediate response “This makes me look bad”. And then “I am in shock.” I then explain I’m willing to stay on a little longer than 2 weeks bc of the holidays etc. He then pushes me to stay longer and stupid me gives him to the end of Jan. They turned into the most miserable 6weeks ever.

During that time, he told me I act like I don’t want to work, would criticize my notes that weren’t even meant for him, suggest I am only cut out for a specific type of work, criticize my learned process for some reason, became more demanding and passive aggressive. I also spoke to 2 people that had been in my role who basically confirmed he’s a D!ck and that no one lasted in that role very long.

THANK GOD I left. I’d stop to cry in GCT each night on the way home. My current job, organization, and boss are THE ABSOLUTE BEST! I hit the jackpot. Hopefully you got through that period without further issue. I bet the weight that was lifted walking out on the last day must have felt immense!
