I hope it’s not a bad omen for me either, because I said I’m never ever dating a coworker again.
That’s great Veritek. It’s in this situations when you realize people’s true colors and sure, MoV has stepped up.
I’m back to work from my month-long vacation and dreading it. I was actually happy to be back, really excited to see my coworkers, and then one of them told me I came back “fat”.
Then I saw my ex and felt incredibly anxious.
Some things never change.*rom-com kind of love
“When I’ve met someone IRL and it’s a bad fit, it takes a bit for my logic to catch up with the emotions I’m feeling.”
This is not your fault,it’s actually the way the human mind works. My therapist explained this to me when I asked him why we were so quick to see other people’s relationship’s issues so clear but not our own. Infatuation and other emotions influence on the decision making process, instead of logical thoughts.
If you think about it, this is an advantage of online dating. Makes you take decisions more logically because you still don’t have any attachment to the person yet. But if you are a passion-driven person, that wants a ton com kind of love, then yes, you could not like it.
I am almost certain that if I saw my ex boyfriend of three years on tinder, without knowing him of course, I would swiped left. But, since I met him at work, even knowing that maybe we weren’t a match, emotions took over and well, I lasted three years there.I guess if you know what you want and what you don’t so clearly, why bother? The minute you knew he had kids you could have told him ok, Im sorry but I don’t want to date anybody with kids. And bye bye. I think you either stick to your values or you wiggle around them.
And if you’re losing sleep over a guy like this, it’s time for a break.
I dated someone for three years that didn’t match a lot of the things I wanted. It didn’t work. So I’m going back to “my type” nowI’m in Madrid!!!! Going to Mad Cool today with a lot of friends. I’m so happy I could explode right now.
I complained about JD earlier. JD I know you are going through difficult stuff but that doesnt mean that other people’s problems are less than yours. I hate when people diminish other people’s feelings saying to someone “you can’t feel that” or “it’s stupid to feel that way”. People are entitled to feel the way they feel.
And also, this is a dating thread so people ask things related to dating.We have to be careful when dating. Treating someone to something expensive could mean he is asking for something else. and sometimes when man don’t get what they wanted, they get violent or harsh or rude. Of course not all men, but you have to be careful.
I was at a concert a couple days ago and met a guy in the line and then during the concert we stayed together. He treated me to a very expensive beer and I was freaked out thinking that maybe he wanted to sleep with me. At the end he was just being nice, but you never know. It’s not bad to be careful.That being said, and with the update, I think that he probably doesn’t know how expensive the tickets are.
I would think this person has no experience in dating whatsoever. And that would make me wary
In my case, it’s not negativity. I wish ladye the best. But I think people can benefit from opinions and experiences. I think that’s the purpose of a forum. I am aware that, due to my own experience, telling people to never date a coworker would be like telling them the sky is blue. LOTS of people told me that and I went and did it anyways. If its a match and seems ok, why not? However, listening to people’s experiences makes you take some cues, like having a plan B. That would be my advice LadyE (not that you’re asking though). Have a plan B in case everything fails. And that goes for every relationship I guess.
My mistake was never taking into consideration that we could break up.Speaking about trips… IM GOING TO EUROPE FOR THE FIRST TIME NEXT WEEK.
And I’m going with my best friend, so I’m super excited.
Also with a couple other friends we just booked the Inka trail for next year.
Lots of things coming up that keep me excited.Yeah, my sister is married to a coworker too. It worked out fine for them.
I had to change gyms because he was there too. It was too much seeing him at work and then at the gym. He wouldn’t change because he had a huge discount and the location was good (I paid full price). I asked him to leave knowing that he wouldn’t afford another box. So he told me please to reconsider, because that wasn’t an option for him. I stayed for a couple more weeks and then left when the environment became too toxic for me. People were invested in our drama, even telling me things about him.
He no longer goes there because they stopped giving him a discount. That gym is super small too, but managing is just awful.
