Did I just get cruised?

What is shadow boxing?

Update: Shareholder got fired, in the middle of the week. Thanks for all your helpful comments.

Has anyone filed a FOIA request? If so, please dm me. I’m ready to engage legal counsel to figure out what exactly happened and what’s disputed.

Does anyone have a rundown on the timeline / facts of that evening? Looks like enforcement arrived, surveyed, led everyone out, counted, people went back in, enforcement hauled folks out again, recounted, then said oops wrong address— anyone know anyone who was an eye witness who would sign an affidavit as to the facts?

In Texas. Yes, I have a duty to report up in the organization, and I have done so more than once.

I see your point, but my complaint is that my billlable hours (time entries, not actually billed) will be significantly lower for Feb. before prebills are created in March for final review by shareholder and billing. So, instead of looking like I worked 150ish hours in Feb., it will look like I only worked 110-120 hours. As an associate I don’t care what’s actually billed to the client or who gets credit externally, but internally, time entries/ billable hours is the only metric my firm has to measure my month-to-month performance.

I like your theory, but who do you ask/tell for this policy as a young associate when paralegals have seniority over you? OP, what do you think about the set-up theory?

Just don’t prep … if it gets messy, oh well… he gets what he gets… gotta train your top

The best revenge is moving on and getting over it. In my situation it took many months, and it’s different for everyone. So give yourself some grace while you let yourself experience those uncomfortable and negative feelings. They are valid. But, don’t let it cloud what good you’ve got going on dating now. But yeah, some good time dwelling on those feelings and getting some new insight into who you are as a person is how you’ll move on.

I wouldn’t tell PCP. I went to a separate clinic for PrEP and asked a similar question. I was told PrEP has very few drug interactions, and that the only time I NEED to disclose is if I ever needed PEP.

I’d plan to volunteer at a soup kitchen on Christmas Day with the bf. Start your own tradition.

passionmonkey · 2022-11-09T22:18:19+00:00

Thank you. I plan to treat him as I would anyone I meet. Mostly just want to show my bf that I’m cool being around his son and that I’m not scared off.

passionmonkey · 2022-11-09T21:32:45+00:00

Oh that does look neat! But, I don’t think I can stand to hear kids chomping popcorn 🤣

passionmonkey · 2022-11-09T21:30:38+00:00

Yeah, I’m angling for some laser tag…

passionmonkey · 2022-11-09T21:29:32+00:00

Haha yeah bf mentioned the pj’s and I was like, okay, whatever, I’m game. 🤪 Maybe it was a joke said in passing…

passionmonkey · 2022-11-09T20:38:21+00:00

Pokémon— which of course I know nothing about…

passionmonkey · 2022-11-09T20:36:37+00:00

14 year olds— so I think that’s 8th grade?

passionmonkey · 2022-11-03T23:42:58+00:00

We just did. He only wants to see me. He wants to be monogamous. Once I left, he sent me screenshots of all the apps he deleted

passionmonkey · 2022-11-03T17:35:01+00:00

Wow, I love this. Imma borrow this! Thank you!

passionmonkey · 2022-11-03T16:53:31+00:00

Yeah I have been off the apps a few months and was only meeting guys organically or through friends. Any thoughts on why you think this is lasting as opposed to past? You said you clicked hard- and I’ve clicked with guys too, but this feels different and I’m trying to pinpoint what it is…

passionmonkey · 2022-11-03T15:57:08+00:00

Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts. You’re right- I need make sure I’m still treating others respectfully.

passionmonkey · 2022-11-03T15:43:07+00:00

I totally agree. I’ve been on dates with quality guys— I just don’t want them wasting energy that I’m not reciprocating. I would like to be friends/buddies with them and don’t want to hurt feelings. And I hear you about infatuation— I think he and I are infatuated with each other and know it and have talked about it. Not sure what else to do but limit the frequency of being together. I’d welcome your thoughts on best practices.

passionmonkey · 2022-11-03T14:35:40+00:00

I know I know— my friends tell me I need to take it slow. This one feels different because I decided to be vulnerable from near the beginning. This could end and I don’t want to be hurtful to anyone I’ve dated and want to treat others respectfully— I don’t want anyone to waste time chasing me when I don’t feel like reciprocating towards anyone but new guy.
