This used to be easier - and a lot more fun, cont.

Don,

I enjoyed your post. I realize I’m supposed to give you a “rah rah” speech about how you need to “put yourself out there” and “keep trying.” Nothing wrong with being okay with where you are. Life is fluid and you never know what tomorrow brings.

Peeps are a fickle bunch nowadays. I was talking with a friend of mine that back in college, if a guy called you, asked about you or something of the sort, one presumed there was interest. Nowadays, people text for weeks or months on end with no intention of even meeting. We seek instant connection yet avoid connecting. Not everyone of course, but it’s a common occurrence. My gf had a guy disappear for 3 months after a date and weeks of texting. She wanted to know why he’s texting again. He’s bored. He’s lonely. He needs an ego stroke. Doesn’t make him a bad guy at small-just probably not R material.

Sounds like you are getting out of a bad situation at work. Good luck on your new endeavor.
