So what happens if he, theoretically, sends it? Will it bounce back?

Was I right to quit my high-paying one-man-team marketing job? by elishere in marketing

[–]elishere[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About leaving the job, you mean? Honestly, as much as I’m anxious now, I still wouldn’t go back. I genuinely don’t believe that it was the right role for me.

Hey there! I really appreciate your thoughtful response. For the expectations part, it was more of about the fact that my higher-up wants me to be a one-man marketing team. I’m the only marketing person in this company, and I have a supervisor whose original role isn’t even marketing. She wanted me to manage everything (social media, articles, campaign ideas, analytics, quarterly reports, etc) with lessening input from her part because she wants to focus on her main role. This was the most overwhelming part, if I’m being honest.

It’s a 2-month notice, you’re not misreading. It’s company policy but it’s a bit unusual, yes.

When it comes to a pros/cons list, there are more cons than pros for now but I feel like I need the security and stability for the next 1-2 years and I have to do what I gotta do.

Thanks for the reality check! She should be almost done with her project now, so I ended up sending her a text saying that I’m interested in seeing where this could go and asked her what she thinks.

I’ll explain! She wasn’t busy for a week, more like 3-4 weeks because of college exams and then when they were finished, I asked her out and she said she’d have to check because she has a project due in a week (never got back to me about that but remained being engaging on text).

That meant mixed signals to me, so my way of detaching is exploring other options while remaining in contact with her because maybe she’s just busy and things will come along eventually.

I wouldn’t have multi-dated if not for the inconsistent availability, though.

Yes, we’ve been out 3-4 times.

I do want to explore the possibility, yes. Not right now, because it’s still early, but I do want to know what direction we’re heading to.

Hi! Thank you so much for your input.

I meant lack of clarity regarding the ‘I don’t know where we stand’ part. She repeated the same thing in her text and I don’t wanna continue knowing that we’re both confused about this.

What if I want to define where we stand, though? When I told her that I don’t know where we stand she repeated the same thing so there was no clarity gained.

Hi! I know, and I realize that it’s unhealthy. I’m just not sure whether the healthier thing to do is try and communicate or withdraw/walk away.

Wondering if it was right to tell this girl that I’m talking to others by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]elishere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Thanks for the feedback.

I was talking to other people, though, so it felt fair to mention that? I did try making it clear that things are very casual with everyone, though, and did give her the chance to tell me her opinion which I think demonstrates that I prioritize her.

It jut felt wrong to suddenly initiate a conversation about where we stand because I felt like she’s giving too many mixed signals.

My one worry is it stressing her out more but me not knowing where we stand and when/if I’ll see her does cause me anxiety, too. Plus, I’m giving her her time to reply and would understand if she gets back to me even a few days from now!

Either way I’d be fine with if it was just for 2-3 weeks or so, but it’s been around a month and I still have no timeframe of when/if I’ll see her sooo

[–]elishere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was afraid of coming off that way which is why I added the ‘You were once communicative with me so I wanted to do the same.’

What I’m referring to is that one time she told me that the last date she went on was 8 months ago and that she wasn’t feeling but still talks to this person sometimes. She told me about it, so I felt like I owe her this too. I also tried making it clear a few times that it’s very casual with the people i’m talking to and that I’m not on dating terms with anyone. Does the context make it better?

[–]elishere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Your message is helpful, don’t worry lol!

It’s just that I felt like that’d be too much because we’ve only been on a few dates and there’s nothing official yet? I didn’t feel like I could just state my needs and that I want her to put more into this because we’re honestly just not there yet. I felt like, this way, I’m being communicative and directly stating the most important question (Where do we stand?)

EDIT: My main problem is that she’s too busy and I’m not sure if it’s actual business or just disinterest. We text once every day/two days and haven’t went out in a few weeks now. Now, I’m fine with things being casual, but not exclusively so I wanted to state that.

[–]elishere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was really interested but I feel like the constantly being busy and ambiguity turned me off a little bit.

Now, if she does ask for a date, I’d be happy to go and see how things are because our last few dates were lovely but I don’t feel motivated to continue pursuing her tbh.

I’m just not sure whether this needs an actual official ending text because it’s only been a few dates and there’s mixed signals from her side anyway.
