I almost cried recently bc I overheard someone at work telling another coworker “you should go ask (my name) about it! I don’t know how she does it, but it seems like she always knows what to do about ANYTHING. Even non work stuff!”
I just love helping people and I don’t expect thanks, but overhearing that when they didn’t know I was around was so touching.

That I'm funny. I (F) dislike being called exotic, especially by old white women, it's gross to me.

I love when people commend me for my wisdom and giving great advice. I used to feel weird being called an old soul but I am proud of it now

On the topic of intimacy with partners… I’ve been with my boyfriend for 2 years and the past year his libido has dropped to zero. Mostly due to work stress (he says). Whenever I try to initiate, he always shuts me down and says he’s not in the mood. I even touch him and he gets hard but stops me as soon as I try to unzip him. We went from once a week to maybe once a quarter.

I’ve talked to him about it and he says I should take care of myself. So frustrated. 😭😭

I probably sound petty, but a part of me is forcing me to re-evaluate every interaction I ever had with her.
