pretty sure this girl is into my best friend and only befriending me to get close to them. asking all the weird questions like «when do yall hang out» or «are they really aro».... ok....... making weird comments like «your best friend is so nice to talk to» or «dont tell this 2 anyone bur your best friend». Like? Chill? Im not going to? Its not like me and my best friend go around telling each other abt every single interaction weve had? Were very secretive ppl in general? and during the 9 hours we talked ( yes im quite the outgoing person ) she mentioned them like. 20 times. no kidding.

don't know why it makes me feel this way. i dont know her like that to have a serious conversation about boundaries. or to even be like «hey, me and my best friend are separate entities». this rlly makes me uncomfortable . im. honestly. can I confess something? Usually im glad when my best friend makes friends because were both pretty lonely by nature. However. However. Im not exactly... Glad... That this person is sticking around?... They seem so clingy. And they look like they want to date my best friend. Whos aro.

Like. Go away. From my best friend specifically.

it spirals into the question of if i am really that unfun 2 be around that people only stick around bc of some inner reason... which is a long debate ive been having and. you know. i dont like asking questions i dont want the answers to.

weve had pretty fun time otherwise. besides her being weird about my best friend.

Unless I misunderstood all of that and theyre just oversharing for no reason Idk.

bleh.

Really having a rough go of things, mostly at work.

I do customer service work (from home, but it's basically standard call center and office work). Naturally, this comes with a lot of red tape, goals, and metrics you have to meet. Among them, I'm scored on my calls and evaluated; I get an evaluation report which highlights some things they found notable - this can be a couple praises, but also criticisms. Normal stuff for this kind of work, and usually it's mostly okay.

The trouble is that the criticisms I do keep getting don't make any sense. We're encouraged to dispute things we think are inaccurate and I do this when I think it's needed, but I never get responses to my disputes. For a while I was getting docked points for "not offering assistance after the greeting" in calls. Except, I was. I always have. I have an identical script I use every time: "Thanks for calling [place]! My name is [name], how can I help you today?" Correct me if I'm wrong but that sounds like I am offering my assistance after my greeting. I've been getting this critique every evaluation for 2 years now and I have asked about it so many times with no guidance as to why what I'm saying doesn't count. So I began to think maybe my evaluator just had it out for me, for reasons I don't understand.

My evaluator appears to have gotten bored with trying to score me poorly for that but now I'm being docked points because I "didn't follow up with the managers via email about a request I submitted when I did not hear back from them after a few days."

Except I did follow up. I first sent the request Friday, and we are open weekends with managers on duty. I sent a reminder email on Monday because it still had not been done. And I even sent another today, because guess what? A week has passed, and it still wasn't done!

I confirmed that my follow-ups did go through, so I sent my evaluator a screenshot proving that I did in fact follow up and when. I have no idea if my scores will be adjusted accordingly but I am willing to bet I won't get a response about it either way.

I get stuff falls through the cracks but I just don't see how someone else's failure to communicate or finish their task should result in ME getting poor scores. Exactly how many times do I have to remind someone else to do their job before you realize it isn't me that's the problem? Why am I being negatively scored when I'm not the one failing to do my job?

Repeatedly instructing management on their duties was not in my job description when I started this job and it's certainly not reflected in my paycheck. I am so tired, y'all. So, so tired.

sometimes i'm just randomly hit with what happened to him. he was everything that i'd dreamt of and he suffered needlessly because my mother just lost interest. i feel so incredibly sorry for him. i love and miss you harley. i hope that the rest of your life is good. i'm sorry you suffered so. i hope that you don't think of me when you remember your pain, because you were the light of my life. i love you and still do and i hope you're doing well my sweet pony. :(

I'm scared.

I wonder if you'd still like me so much if you knew my secret

During the pandemic, I really turned to the internet to make friends and have a social life. There are a couple people that I stayed fairly close to throughout the years. Some I talked to daily. Over the past couple of weeks though, there is one person who I was close to but we slowly stopped talking daily, even went some weeks without talking. I find out yesterday that they removed me. I had a chance to question them this morning, and all they really said was "i want to remove my internet friends." Of course I am sad about it but there is not much I can do. We have run into some problems in the past with them ghosting me and then apologizing and talking to me again. But I simply cannot keep enduring this friendship with someone, so I am removing them from my side of social media.

There are also a couple other instances this month plus the addition of my irl friends that I am having some conflict with, which is just overall making me feel burnt out and sad. However, i have been reconnecting with my art and joined some new communities. I hope to make some new friends through my art and other games I play daily, such as roblox.

Life has been rough this month. There has been some really good times but also some really rough ones. Just gotta keep moving forward and out my energy into people that are there for me and make some art
