She texted me a plot twist of GoT while I was at work. Told her I was blocking her number if it was real and not a joke. Saw the episode later that evening and blocked her number. Never talked to her since.

Because of a guy

Are there really dumb reasons for this? I think if you have thought about it enough to have a reason, it’s not dumb.

Football. Can’t help it. Maybe it’s dumb but once I find out you’re a fan of one team in particular, we just can’t be friends. Just something I can’t let go of.

Yep! Born and raised in GB. But I had a Bears Fan day that to me as well.

I’m sure it’s the same for Yankees and Red Sox in baseball.

He made a new friend who had this thing where his new friend liked to try to make fun of me in order to impress him. This occurred when I went away for college and he stayed in the home town for a relationship that fell apart anyways. I didn’t set any ultimatums just decided to throw away over a decade of friendship. We turned into different people. Things that I used to laugh at I took more seriously. In retrospect I think I took myself a bit more seriously than I should have

It's always tough, but this year it has felt impossible to stay on top of grading. Sure, there are online quizzes the computer can grade for you, but that data is so limited. What about the steps they took to get that answer on the math problem? I need to see it to know what they missed... Between submission of blurry photos and going through the process of uploading, downloading, and squinting to see their work, it takes me 20x longer to grade work for my digital kids. #thestruggle

I'm always on the look out for my next opportunity or passively job searching. To that end, I believe in staying connected with my network through out the year and not randomly approaching them for a position/opening. However, at times, it feels the communication is coerced and there is a lack of rapport. Anyone else struggle with this? Thanks!
