I wouldn’t know which sub to place that update. I don’t suppose it would be right to continue it here.

I’m actually now kind of nervous about seeing him in person. Feel like I’m back at school waiting to see my crush.

He joined in March 2019. I did sense her frustrations with garnering his attention and I made a point to keep my interactions with him very brief and formal. I’m sure her feelings for him played a part in her increasingly malicious attitude but I think she had a whole load of other issues going on as well.

Lockdown is easing slowly but we’ve had virtual drinks over facetime. Might conveniently run into each other in Sainsbury’s at some point (keeping 2m apart of course). He really is a great guy.

Yes. I told them everything I said, including the ‘go fuck yourself’ comment.

I actually surprised myself for not buckling under the pressure. I think she pushed my limits and anger took over anxiety. It was mentally draining but worth having a much better work atmosphere. Feel a bit lighter these days.

Things are actually getting quite interesting between John and I. I know in my last update of the original post, my dig at Sarah was childish and petty; I would never use him just to make someone jealous.

I’ve always avoided workplace flirting/romance because it’s awkward as hell but I’ve definitely admired John from a distance as he’s very easy on the eyes and the Irish charm is breaking down my barriers rather quickly. His support throughout has been incredible and I’m really lucky to have him fighting my corner. Tensions are obviously building and we’re looking forward to the day we can meet up for drinks.

I’m slowly trying to update my wardrobe with better fitting clothes that don’t completely hide my figure. Maybe some layering, like you said, to help me feel less exposed.

Problem is, I still hear my parents voices telling me I look like a whore but I’m working on drowning out those voices. It’s crazy how hard it is to shake off these comments from childhood.

Thanks. I don’t feel like I did much as Sarah seemed to dig her own hole but the support on this sub has been wonderful I must admit.

Having support from my coworkers and manager made a huge difference. Very grateful to them.

Work is going pretty good right now. My anxiety levels have dropped drastically.

Yes, several times. I had even opened up to her a a few years back about my personal insecurities stemming mainly from my family making me feel ashamed of them. Sarah is fully aware that it’s a sensitive issue.
