My long term mentor cut me out abruptly. No reason whatsoever. He lives out of town. Prior to ending the mentorship, I had emailed him that I would drive an hour to see him when he’s in town. His assistant was in copy. I didn’t think it was inappropriate but now I am second guessing whether that would be considered inappropriate or too casual? We are both married and I would never want to cross any line or be misconstrued. He’s been super helpful to my career. Any thoughts?

His wife (or somebody) is mad. This has nothing to do with you. Wish him well, take the lessons and find a new mentor. Change is the only constant in your life.

I have a return offer from a big 4! Thoroughly enjoyed the experience as an intern and have no complaints. Would love to go back.

However, a bit confused if I should try and recruit with MBB’s or if I should accept the big 4 offer already and take the sign on bonus?

Would it be a blunder to NOT try recruiting with MBB’s ? Besides the monetary aspect, what are the other things I’d have to think about?

I’ll start hooking up with someone with no intention of dating them because of red flags, but if the sex is good I want to lock it down for the future (even if we are not compatible in our personality, I’ll start to see them in a positive way and flirt more since it makes the sex even better)! The guy starts to think I want a relationship (which is half true) and then distances himself. Anyone else go through this cycle?
