Am I overthinking - one of my ‘best friends’ always posts a HBD story on Instagram for friends (like a lot) but she didn’t do one for me, seems weird?

Maybe, she hasn't had the time? Or, it's not a good day for her.

My best friend does this (for others) but she never does it for me because she knows I hate those things. Could this be the case for you? Have you ever indicated that you dislike those shout outs in passing so she purposefully doesn’t do it for you? If she shows she cares in other ways I would not think much of it. But if she’s truly your BFF then you should feel comfortable just asking her what’s up.

No, this is awesome. Was seeing a guy for some 1,5 months now, first real thing in ages. Had our first fight because I tried to be honest about seeing someone else at the beginning of us dating, but now I’m all in, he changed clothes and left. Said he can’t sit next to me and pretend this didn’t happen. I’m not saying I was right, but wow. Show vulnerability, say smth wrong and the guy just bails.

Trying out bumble bff. Met a girl for drinks last week and we seemed to hit it off. We mentioned doing something again and coordinating later in the week. I texted her today to ask if she was still interested in doing something this week and she said she was super busy with a huge project and apologized. But she didn’t offer the weekend (which I feel is included in “this week”), didn’t say “lets do another time” or anything like that. Should I take the L and count her as not rly interested 🥲

Been passed over for promotion twice (had support from multiple partners both times). Received the top performance rating every year since joining the firm (6 years), which I’ve heard is rare.

Anyone else face this and have any suggestions/guidance?

My career counselor has seemed kind of cold towards me lately and I’m not sure why.

For example, I went outside of our account for a stretch role and had walked through the logic of that decision (the role is on a high visibility project that could lead to more work, it’s a role meant for someone two career levels above mine

However he is not really interested in world affairs, does not follow the news closely, does not have a strong grasp
