I have also discovered that I tend to be pushy and overbearing at times. Guess that is the stereotypical attorney thing.

As an interesting aside, the gal I had been talking about seems to be getting caught in her false statements. Employer found out that not only did she miss the mandatory meeting, she lied to do so. She could have had a stable job, a devoted partner, financial resources, the whole nine yards. Instead, she chose to have nothing. That makes no sense, and not just taking about her shooting me down either. Wonder if once her job situation becomes clearer, I will suddenly become more interesting.

For a while, I was kind of enjoying that situation. Was nice to see somebody who hurt you get a comeuppance. Then started thinking that the response was wrong. That while she hurt me more deeply than any other person I have met, maybe I should think about her experiences. It is a feeling I have never had before. Before when people would screw me over, my response would pretty much be karma’s a b****. Am I still being confused by my prior emotions? Part of me wants to hug her, part of me wants to her to go to and stay put.
