Girl! SO was like "you have such thick skin. Nothing people say ever bothers you." That's because I just got a trim Saturday, so I know the devil is a liar. What she means is "haircut" to look like her, not "trim", and I don't want to look like her, so.....womp womp.
What's crazy is that she goes ouuuuuuuuuuut of her way to be nice to me when I come in, which I thought was weird. She actually has proven a point that I had been trying to make in discussions with SO that I've been having while I took a break from the board (otherwise I would have posted about.
and then when I came back I was over it). He has been working there since before we were together, so at first I had no problem with his work crew, but lately I've been feeling like they feel too comfortable with him, particularly the women, and it made me uncomfortable. I was telling him that I trust him but at the same time, if we're on the same page, I don't even want things to LOOK inappropriate or for either of us to place ourselves in a position to even become tempted. Unless we're not exclusive
He was like "I understand what you're saying but I really don't see what's inappropriate." One instance in particular was when this young lady that works closely with him as a sort of assistant, but they're similar in age and are together a lot, came out of the building with him as I waited to pick him up for lunch. She walked out with him to get a glimpse of me but was going to totally bypass my car and keep walking (basically, she wanted to see me but not meet me. Or for me to see her
) but he called her back and was like "ey! Meet me girlfriend" and then she got very smiley and friendly. I was like "what do you think the purpose of that was? I'm not saying she's a bad person, but I am saying that was sneaky and shady
" Before THIS incident, he thought I was tripping. And now he's like "yeah! You're right! It is inappropriate! Why would they think they could talk negatively about you to me." Exactly
Nip it
I'm not even worried about her, but I do thank her kindly for proving my point. There's more to the story but I'm longwinded as it is. lol
Oh! But according to my other informant at the place
the girl in question started crying when he checked her (in a gentlemanly way, I'm sure
) by saying "I don't need my girlfriend to have to be afraid to come here because she's worried about being judged" and was like "why are you mad at me!? I ALWAYS say she's pretty! I like her, I'm not even trying to be messy. I always say she's pretty!" Girl, please. I could possibly never need validation from you. Be seated. And don't worry about why he's mad. Get a life
eta: I'm not saying he's perfect either, because like I've beeeeeeeeeeeeen saying, the reason why she felt that comfortable in the first place is because their whole interactions are inappropriate, but he stood up for me and I love that he handled that and he better continue to handle it and that's that
