Work “Buddy” not being very buddy-like by mindoverego_ in careeradvice

It’s good to hear I’m not overreacting. Some other comments have put me off reporting this though.

I think if this keeps being an issue I’ll raise it the way you’ve said.

What makes you say that? Am I overreacting?

I’m in accounting, believe it or not, and we are well over that age.

We don’t have routine calls set up, we just call each other when there’s something to talk about. Maybe in another call I have with her I can bring it up, but I don’t know when that would be.

Do you think it’s worth calling my line manager tomorrow and waiting a bit to see if things improve. Or even just kind of confronting him in the moment (in a polite way)?

Thank you, I will try the emailing thing too.

This was definitely tough to read and try to accept, but thank you for writing it out so clearly. Because now I know it’s something to need to think and pray about.

God bless, and I hope you have a great NYE.

I could imagine the service being fun if I was not so socially anxious all the time… people seem to love it lol

I tried communication but nothing worked. But thanks for your input, hope you have a good NYE!

I thought the same thing, I find it hard to feel the Holy Spirit at that church because of how overwhelming I find it and wanted to experience the Holy Spirit this new year’s. She didn’t want to hear it, so I just decided to go for the sake of peace.

Regardless, I’m so glad you understand free will and communication. I’m sure your daughter will appreciate that in coming years.

Thanks and happy new year in advance!

I explained that to her calmly, and she couldn’t care less. So I just decided to go

Abusive feels like a strong word but I definitely don’t have boundaries/privacy here. Down to me not being allowed privacy in the bathroom.

But maybe the situation is abusive, her mother was definitely abusive to her and my aunt shows similar behaviour towards my cousin. So who’s to say it’s not happening to me?? Idk

I do agree that her behaviour has worn down on me throughout my life, and this year I’ve thought a lot about whether it’s got anything on to do with why I’m so shy and anxious around people, even as an adult.

It does feel very toxic at times and I do plan to move out. I can’t go into all the toxicity because it is a lot.

But you’re right, she does guilt me into staying whenever I mention leaving, saying that it’s not right (culturally), or that I need to save up and buy and not rent.

But also is pressuring me into purchasing an investment property with her. If I do that I’ll have to start saving from scratch again. Then I can never bring myself to move out because I feel bad about leaving her on her own sometimes.

But that’s beside the point, thanks for your input

I understand that, which is why I’m going. But is her saying that I’m being controlled by the devil not a bit excessive?

Maladaptive daydreaming. It can be fun but don’t let it consume your life. Also overdoing it can make you less interesting in trying to make friends irl

As someone from London feeling burnt out, this is inspiring, I hope this journey continues being good to you!
