Have you ever felt like the rules keep changing at work?What might count as “good” today isn’t good enough tomorrow, without any explanation. How do you stay confident when success is never clearly defined?

This sounds more like a "They" issue than something you can control. The company or perhaps management doesn't seem to have a reliable way to execute, thus the moving goal posts or an inconsistency in establishing clearly defined directives. Perhaps you should consider if this is the right fit for you and go from there.

I've dealt with that kind of chaos a lot. The metrics that were great one month are inadequate the next, and the goalposts are always being moved around. It's just a sign of poor management, and there's no way to handle it except to try to navigate through it. There will be days when I wonder what it's like to work for competent mangers, it must be a lot easier.

My husband does not show affection openly and is quite lazy in bed, and I thought I could deal with it because I love him, but it’s really really beginning to annoy me. For example, he refuses to do any foreplay and basically asks that I get on top of him most of the time when we have have sex- if I push him to do anything else he basically just refuses to have sex at all as some sort of ‘protest’. I am finding myself fantasising about an affair more and more
