How do you tell if your coworker is being nice or is interested in something more. Ex. He let me come back to his place after drinking too much. And has mentioned I always have a spot at his place even when I had a hotel. —there’s other situations but not enough space to include it all.

He is either very interested or completely clueless about boundaries

You've hit the nail on the head!

He’s either the nicest guy with no idea of professional boundaries or he would very much like to be in a relationship/arrangement with you.

Had a similar situation. Slept at his place in bed with him and borrowed clothes. Cuddled a tiny bit but that was all. Found out later he didn’t want to make a move because we were in the same practice. Also we were same level and didn’t work together so no weird business there either.
Sounds like he likes your company but may not want to get involved with a coworker.

I was super drunk. Like blacked out. So I’m not sure what if anything happened but if I know him enough he’s a complete gentleman he probably put me to bed and left it there. Didn’t share clothes, from my understanding of when I woke we did not sleep together maybe same room definitely not same bed. We are basically same level. Don’t work together often other than minor things opinions and such as I am the office manager (not an overseeing role) and the next morning he was super casual—which is really why I was so confused he Asked me what I was doing the rest of the day(sleeping) and when he was making plans to get up and go he said “not kicking you out, but I’m leaving in about 20 minutes” so I took that as a sign, got up, got my things together and walked my hungover butt back to the office to get my car.

I’m not mad about it, just trying to get a grasp on how I feel about it. I mean I feel like I might be into him but I don’t want to overstep it and I don’t want to assume that his comments, actions and offerings are anything more than being nice. But safe to say if the offer of staying at his place is unusual then I will tread lightly

Serious question - is there a reverse FIRE strategy? I like the idea of saving and retiring early, but the one hiccup I see (and sorry if this is grim) is if you die earlier than expected.

This way you guaranteed your dreams/etc. are fulfilled

This is more of a rant than anything but advice is welcome. I’m so fed up with my manager micromanaging everything.

I’m at a loss for what to say to them because I’ve tried repeatedly to fix this to no avail.

So about quiet quitting, at another job I was in I felt I was getting more and more tacked onto my job and picking up the slack of everyone else. I told my boss that I was doing work that was in someone else’s job description and it would be nice if they could help me out by doing their job. He told me, “But you’re so much better at it.” Looking back, I think the whole team was quiet quitting and he was resting on me and so I real quit. What are ya’lls thoughts? Have you ever done it?

They did not mention when someone performing a particular role was a man but they did point out when it's a woman, happened about four times. Odd, no? What would you make of this?

confession: Today I got a little too aggressive on the pint of ice cream in the freezer that only had a few bites in it. I came to realize the only way to not catch heat was to eat it all, go to the store and replace it, take a few bites of the new one, then destroy the evidence. Wife had no idea when she opened it after dinner. My life has come to sneaking treats and I don’t know how to feel about it.
