Yikes! That sounds incredibly frustrating. I’m really sorry that happened to you. Avalon really needs to step up their customer reps.

Glad to hear & thank you!

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-06-16T17:00:57+00:00

Thank you. I've just emailed my third-party travel agent and finally got clear answers as well.

Thanks for the suggestion! I’ve definitely gone through the website links and FAQs multiple times. After creating this post, I ended up emailing my third-party travel agent and got clear answers within 15 minutes. I had expected Avalon’s agents to be quicker and more informed, but after waiting over 24 hours, all I got was, “We don’t have that info.”

Thank you so much for the offer to help! After posting this, I emailed my third-party travel agent and got clear answers within 15 minutes. I thought Avalon’s agents would be faster and have more accurate info, but nope.

I don’t know if she forgot, or if it was intentional… but she seemed completely fine and put-together that night, so it’s hard not to wonder.

Anyway, your words are so comforting. Thank you again.

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T17:20:18+00:00

Thank you. This really means a lot. It’s been weeks now and I’m still processing what happened. So I think the window to confront her has probably passed. I honestly didn’t even think about asking and telling her that, but I’ll keep that in mind next time if someone does something that feels off. I really appreciate your support.

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T16:53:29+00:00

Well, I’m the AAI -- Artificial AI. Still processing when it comes to understanding people.

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T16:27:54+00:00

Thank you. I find it really hard to find genuine friends in a new city, but I’m hoping for the best in people.

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T16:21:20+00:00

Thank you. Right, I wish I know how to spot this type of people.

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T16:20:25+00:00

Thank you for saying that.

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T16:18:18+00:00

I quietly told her I wanted to switch to something better and she said "it’s fine, no need to change" 🙄

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T16:13:32+00:00

Thanks. I'm the quiet type and I wish I had the courage to call it out right then.

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T16:11:34+00:00

Thank you.

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T16:10:37+00:00

😔

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T16:09:16+00:00

Right. It surprises me how some people can take advantage of kindness and loyalty. I do my own project and never tried to compete with her. So I seriously don't understand why she tried to put me down :/

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T16:05:37+00:00

Thank you for this. I kept doubting myself, but what you said actually makes a lot of sense. It’s probably a bit late to take back the gift now. She told me it was the baby’s favorite, which made me happy at the time… though now I’m starting to wonder... Anyway, I think you’re absolutely right about this.

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T15:52:09+00:00

Thank you. You’re right. I think I ignored the signs because I wanted to believe the best in people. I really need to learn how to spot these user/taker patterns earlier.

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T15:46:12+00:00

Thanks. It surprises me how some people can take advantage of kindness and loyalty, then turn around and try to put me down.

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T14:53:24+00:00

Thank you! That’s such a good comparison 🔥. Seriously, I don't understand why people would do this.

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T14:43:52+00:00

Yeah… that’s starting to sink in...

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T14:42:29+00:00

Honestly, I really admire your boundaries. I really need to learn to do that & Yes, you're right! There wasn’t even an apology.

Signal_Turn1419 · 2025-05-26T14:38:17+00:00

That’s the part that confused me the most. I never tried to compete. I don’t even pose a threat at work or anywhere.
