Idk what is going on here but I trust my intuition.

just started working at a doggy daycare four months ago and I needed a fresh start. I'm a first gen college graduate class of 2018 and I've had NOTHING but crap jobs until this one. 13 jobs in 8 years since then. I wasn't even ready for college back then. My parents just had me go anyway. Well, after ending up in the hospital for "stuff" , I ended up just going after jobs I knew I would enjoy. Now I'm here and I am dealing with drama. I swear these people think I'm an *** just because I am not interested in dating my damn manager. Idk if they've learned anything since starting but I've seen some crap and heard crap too and I just...feel disturbed and angry. I'm just trying to survive. Not date someone I work with. I admit, she is very attractive but she's still responsible for how she reacts and I just feel...antagonized just for being myself. Idk what to think. I'm paranoid and hurt and miserable. I'm just trying to focus on the job. I don't have a lot of friends to begin with anyway so I don't know if I'm even capable of a healthy relationship right now. Never had one. Always denied one anyway. I could be worrying too much but I know what I've seen too. It hurts. I expect people my age to want to ruin my life because of the way people treated me since high school. I just want compassion from them. Understanding. Empathy. Humility. Too much to ask?!

You don't have to date anyone you don't want to.

It's important to stand up for yourself but also to know, no matter what your experiences, not everyone is out to get you 💖
