Nikakaeo Amu Tsukiyomi-sama Well, most of the people at teavana, aside from the one jerk co-worker, are all really nice and don't hit on each other.
I learned there's actually a "you can't hang out together outside of work rule-thing, so kinda kills that whole thing.
It was, especially since he told me that he was going to check on his tables AND COME BACK.
Which he did.
So after le bf comment, I went and hid in the back room for the remainder of my break.
I read something recently that perfectly describes what I deal with and it's a "you're a female in a space subconsciously deemed to be 'owned' by men....meaning pretty much any place other than where a 50's house wife would usually be: the kitchen, the house (but only technically in that case), the nursery, and the sewing type room.
And so a lot of guys, because of how men are supposedly more 'powerful' than females...they feel they have the right to hit on a lady.
And the only way to get them to back off is to essentially say "I'm someone else's thing"
And even then some real classy gents tell you they'd be better than what you have.
Which I've only even had people tell me that online and boy did I go off on them....though I'm fairly sure one was 100% joking...you just do not joke about that kind of thing with me and you DO NOT say s**t about how I'll "eventually realize how worthless he is".
Because that is the kind of self-important, narrow-minded, asinine bullshit many guys tell themselves and are totally wrong about.
Because if you're saying s**t like that, unless you've literally watched a dude treat the female in question like trash, you think you're better than you are and you're just looking to 'win' some petty ego battle you have in your head.
Yeah....it makes for a really hilarious story when I tell it, because I give the lines a slavic accent...
But just no.
That won't win you a lady's interest, especially the bit about switching with his wife...
Because of the reasons I listed above. Perceived entitlement/ownership. Which is funny, because ALL babies start out as female initially....that's the reason why men have nipples. Maybe that's should be the rallying banner for equality "We all started out female"....plus, that'd seriously screw with those anti-gay marriage people...since we all started out as females...technically EVERY marriage is same-sex. Not that they'd really get my point. Anyway, I digress. So yeah....home is not a fun place for me....it's not a bad home...but years of 'dad really isn't a dad except in dna contribution'...takes a toll when the father in question will never understand what he did. And when you try to explain how badly he basically abused you (emotional/mental)......he turns it back on you and eventually makes you basically rescind what you said...as well as accusing you of 'saving up stamps'...rather than sincerely acknowledging that he ******** up. My boyfriend is like my father because he probably has asperger's (or so he's said) and he's so smart he makes me feel stupid (in comparison; which is a very rare occurrence let me tell you and something I really like actually). Past that, he is willing to protect me and is actually there for me...something I've only ever really gotten from my mother and sister... Thank you for the hoping a full-day actually happens. I hope you find a recharge person. Because everyone deserves to have that.
that's an odd, yet useful rule. wonder where that one came about? wow. some people REALLY don't know when to quit. forcing someone to hide in their own workplace to get away from you is really shitty, and i hope even he saw that and that is exactly why i dislike men. that and if you do anything that they see as damaging to their fragile masculinity they react like a literal child. not to mention that mindset has been around for thousands and thousands of years, so the idea of men owning women is far beyond archaic and outdated. and thankfully you haven't had to deal with people telling you that in person, because it's easier to do that online where they can't end up causing a big scene that people would probably side with them on because stupid friggin reasons he probably thought that it was a line that'd make you feel honored, but no, that isn't an honoring thing to say. it's creepy huh. i'd thought that while in the development phase, they're both male and female before deciding on a sex. though that'd still make your argument against the anti-same-sex-marriage people valid. i can understand why home isn't a fun place due to having a father who is one only in name due to having lived with it myself, but not for as long as you've had to. that i'm thankful for, and can only hope you don't have to deal with it for much longer. and i can bet that finding someone you deem smarter than yourself is an unusual thing, from what i recall from when the creeper threads were still a thing. but it's definitely good you have another person who'll stick by you no matter what. and thanks, though it's unlikely to be so. it seems to be a thing that happens with strong emotional bonds and bonds of trust, and since it's the same for me with all my friends, i won't have a singular person like that. though it'll probably be lesser quality due to being spread out over multiple peopleActually, it's semi not useful at all....because if you really like your co-workers, you can really only hang out at work....where you're supposed to be working...
The guy didn't actually force me to hide, but rather I chose to hide as the simpler option.
I'm fairly sure he would have left me alone, considering I'd said I had a boyfriend and he was at least decent enough to back off after I said that.
No, I just didn't want to risk the creepy worker being there or finding out that there were yet more waiters from the place interested in me.
Oh, if someone told me that in person, no one would side with them.
Not after I'd be done with them.
All it takes is a little "I'm sorry, I don't think I heard you quite right, did you just tell me that you, someone I do not know and now have no interest in knowing, would be better for me than someone who has accepted all of my crazy? So you're saying you'd be willing to deal with the 70 different food allergies I have, my ADHD, Asperger's, OCD....among other issues I have?"
And with a few words stating, firmly but politely and subtextually, that I know they're really only interested in appearances and not actually me.
I highly doubt anyone would side with them since I didn't act a b***h, but rather told them they have no ******** idea what they're talking about.
With a civil smile.
If they keep at it, then I'll get bitchy.
And probably tell them that because they are not accepting my no, they are both harassing me and threatening my personal safety.
Which if they say something to that, I go talk to someone who can remove them....or make like I'm calling the cops.
I think it is more likely he though I'd find it funny, rather than a 'honor'.
And if he DID think that, how screwed up in the head is that guy.
Well technically yeah....it's both, I forgot about the whole testes thing. But yes, it still proves my point. The only reason there are two genders is we're not amoeba or single-cell organisms that can just divide and tahdah. Yeah, but you've had other things to deal with. My dad went on out of town trip for his job fairly often, so we'd have a month, usually more, where we didn't have to deal with him and how his mere presence drains the rest of us.
It is unusual, since most people I talk to seem to pretend they understand some of the ideas I present...rather than them actually understanding....or some of them try to rise to my level and succeed as well as can be expected...but many people I talk to who aren't total losses may not match intellectually, but they are better at other things than I am and they don't go "BLEEEEH, you're wrong because I can't comprehend!", so it evens out. Recharging isn't just based on trust and strong emotional bonds....it's based partially on how much, at least for me, I want to talk/see/etc the person in question. And usually the case is "If I can see my boyfriend as opposed to doing pretty much anything else, I'd much rather be around le boyfriend. Unless I'm in a depressive spiral and then I'd probably still see him because even if I'm depressive, merely talking to him helps....at least for a little while depending on how bad the depressive spiral is.

KeatonIshTak05 Amu Tsukiyomi-sama Definitely.
I don't know if I'd be more or less afraid of that movie industry...
Probably less....because if they learned how to not screw up good things....then who knows what all positive changes might happen.
Perhaps. We'd just find other stuff to complain about, though. True.
But it'd more be things like "I wish the lighting was better"
or "The costumes were okay I guess..."
than "THEY COMPLETELY DESTROYED X THING/ignored x plot point for no good reason"

Fair enough, but what if you do that already? "That scene was a little too dark. What even happened?" "Oh gods, I hate that actress. I'm not even going to see the thing."

you have a point, there. it's useful to stay away from employees you don't like, but unhelpful when you like your coworkers. i'll defer to your judgement on that then. i wasn't there and don't know the other person, so i can't say anything more on that matter ... i'd forgotten that you can be very scary if you want to be. remind me to never get on your bad side either one's possible, and if the honor one was the case, then it could just be a case of different culture and archaic view from that culture showing itself. or he's messed up in the head. or maybe even both. who knows? i'm not even gonna open the can of worms that comes with 'only two genders' but yeah, that's pretty much the main reason there's two sexes. though homopobes use that as the end all be all rule of marriage/relationships; can't make a baby together, can't be together. my 'having it worse' is mainly due to a lack of a permanent place of residence, and the people involved have no relation to me, so it's easier to deal with. not like blood relations caused any problems in the past with me cutting all contact with a person, but still
then yaaaay for being able to have someone to challenge you at intellectual things in general! though the people who go 'i am unable to understand you so that makes you wrong' are annoying and need to go away.
well, in that case then, it'll be about two years until i can see that person for me. except maybe once or twice during the summer and if i can get down to texas in that time. so there'd need to be some serious overcharging that'd need to happen at that time

Usually what I do is "does this interest me?"
And it's usually a no, because most films don't interest me.
Sometimes I watch a movie to see how badly they screwed up whatever it is based on.

Ah, so it's just me then. Yeah, I find myself having no interest in most movies. Horror and sci-fi are really my biggest draws. And that's precisely why I want to see the new Star Wars. I'm afraid for it, but also morbidly curious.

Okay.
Yes, yes I can be.
Because I'm a very nice person, but cross me and I will find a way to legally ******** you over.
Or let you wallow in the fear that I will.
Because sometimes not doing a damn thing is much more effective.
Though I personally prefer doing just enough and letting the other person's mind complete the thing.
Much more fun watching someone when I do that because they come up with all sorts of things.
You'd have a hard time getting on my bad side, because you're not a sheeple or a huge moron.
I have no idea, but I don't think that would be part of whichever country he's originally from's culture...
Oh, I know about intersex, but it's a combination of two genders in some form. And I separate mental gender from physical gender, because one is tied to identity and the other is what you literally are (unless you change it). That's what I meant, though I guess I can see how that might technically be better than stuck with a problem you can't actually cut ties with yet. Hell, if I could cut ties with relatives basically my dad's entire family would get the old heave ho into a nice fire. Except for the one uncle and his family, as they're decent people.
Mhm. If his IQ is what he's said it is....he's a whole hell of a lot smarter than I am....though...what with all my problems, I definitely have a higher IQ than what I scored. Because IQ test do not work too well. I mean, you can generally tell how smart a person is by talking to them and hearing the level of ideas they speak on...or the what they talk about, usually smaller minded people talk about things and not concepts.
I can bet. Just....don't lock people in rooms. It may seem like a great idea at the time....but it's not.

I'm not terribly interested in the new star wars...but I have a feeling I'm gonna see it anyway.
Which is fine, just I rarely go to movies, in theaters, of my own will.
Though, I did enjoy kingsman.
A lot.

i figured i probably wouldn't end up on your bad side unless i tried, but still. i would not ever want to be on your bad side for any reason, because of those methods you mentioned already eh, probably not. but you never know ahh, okay. it was the specific wording that got me there, then, using gender as meaning one's sex or one's identity. this is one of those reasons the english language is annoyingly confusing
well, hopefully the time comes that you can do that soon; i've already cut ties with pretty much everyone i'm related to, with the exception of like... seven people, my mother and my brother, because they all suck. but those are tales for another time
to add on to the 'iq tests don't work too well' thing, tests in general don't work very well unless it's on specific things you've studied on/for. there's people who don't believe one's iq to be an accurate representation of how smart people are for a reason, after all
... did someone lock you in a room with someone at some point? or were you the one who locked someone in a room? i'm curious as to the circumstances of the room locking

Feels appropriate.
Pretty sure wife swapping isn't and never was a thing in eastern europe.
Maybe in asia, africa, or places where they NEEDED more kids and if you couldn't do it, trying someone else was a 'duty' or whatever.
Sounds bad, but is species survival logic, so it's not actually all that terrible.
Yup.
In theory, once the only good uncle dies...and my stupid frikking grandmother on dad's side die.....I won't have to worry about severing ties, as no one will talk to each other after that.
I believe IQ measures things other than actual intellect. I mean, I know I am smart, but I don't do well on tests because they don't word things such that those who are smart enough to see alternate meanings know which one is the right meaning....or they do trite things and do not give enough situational context for a person to give the best possible answer. But IQ tests are also designed to "work" for 'everyone', which means they're bullshit because the majority of people are not all that smart....but because they're not that smart, they function very well in the world. Because they're oblivious to the hell they live in and create for everyone else.
No. But I've wanted to lock myself and my boyfriend in a room so I could have as much time as possible with him.....though that was a fairly early on thing I wanted to do...not that he has been told I wanted to do that. I just know that to lock someone in a room does the opposite of make them like you more....because you locked them in a room. Which is selfish and a bit psycho-seeming if not outright psycho. Accidental locking in and mutual locking don't have that issue.

Amu Tsukiyomi-sama Muahahaha.
Feels appropriate.
Pretty sure wife swapping isn't and never was a thing in eastern europe.
Maybe in asia, africa, or places where they NEEDED more kids and if you couldn't do it, trying someone else was a 'duty' or whatever.
Sounds bad, but is species survival logic, so it's not actually all that terrible.
Yup.
In theory, once the only good uncle dies...and my stupid frikking grandmother on dad's side die.....I won't have to worry about severing ties, as no one will talk to each other after that.

pretty sure the evil laugh was indeed quite appropriate it only sounds bad from a western point of view. survival definitely goes over ~*~the sanctity of marriage~*~ 100% of the time that's probably the main reason that it worked as well as it did for me, then; nobody really tries to keep in contact, for the most part. and when those who i've essentially disowned DO try to initiate contact, even in person, they get zero response. not even an acknowledgement that they exist, for some of them, because of what they did to make me want to sever those ties to begin with
how you phrased that makes it sound like part of the reason so many people don't like word problems in math. like "If Jimmy has two apples and Jan has seven bananas, then how many oranges does Billy have?" types of word problems. but either way i can definitely see what you mean by that. and hey, some of those people actually contribute positively to society. it's the 1% that make the country as much of a hell that it is. though some of the 99% definitely help with that. just not in the same ways they can
ahhhh, okay. yeah, that kind of thing would only really work if it was a lock that could easily be undone from the inside but not the outside, or if both parties agreed to it as you mentioned. though i can't really blame you for wanting to do that, with how much trouble it seems to be for you to even see him to begin with

Amu Tsukiyomi-sama KeatonIshTak05 Amu Tsukiyomi-sama ....not that I'm aware of...
Usually what I do is "does this interest me?"
And it's usually a no, because most films don't interest me.
Sometimes I watch a movie to see how badly they screwed up whatever it is based on.
Ah, so it's just me then. Yeah, I find myself having no interest in most movies. Horror and sci-fi are really my biggest draws. And that's precisely why I want to see the new Star Wars. I'm afraid for it, but also morbidly curious. Nah, it's not just you, there are others who do that.
I'm not terribly interested in the new star wars...but I have a feeling I'm gonna see it anyway.
Which is fine, just I rarely go to movies, in theaters, of my own will.
Though, I did enjoy kingsman.
A lot.
It's entirely possible. It's just one of those things people will be talking about forever. People still talk about seeing the original trilogy in theatres. I like going to movie theatres most of the time, but I try to go when a movie's been out for a while. Less people. I like being nearly alone in the auditorium. Can't say I've seen that one. Is that a Colin Firth movie?

Yay!
Yeah....but then again, no one ever claimed westerners were smart...(Read: Americans/Puritans)
( *stops self before ranting about how many religious people are sheeple who cannot think on their own or it sure comes across like they can't...* )
Yeah, it works way better when the other parties involved don't have this belief you MUST spend ALL holidays with the family...they still don't really understand that when my dad said 'xmas is now with my family' 22 years ago....but they came to kind of grudgingly accept it? At least they stopped pestering us too badly about easter, 4th of July, thanksgiving... They've never really respected us as a family....especially not my mother....I've always gotten the impression they thought my mother was some horrible person who was indoctrinating my sister and I against them/the grandparents....and was the one keeping us from going to family holiday things and doing 'what we were supposed to'. The only thing that is even vaguely true in the most vaguest sense out of that is the indoctrinating...but only because my mother would explain to us in as impartial of a manner as possible, what the relatives would do to us, had done to us before, would do to other relatives, and had done to other relatives before....the other relatives usually being my dying uncle's family...mainly because him and my aunt got pregnant before they got married...even though they were planning on getting married anyway. So that cousin got treated pretty poorly....especially in comparison to the first (and only) male grandchild who was born about two months after her....and in a stroke of karmic justice, the male cousin was a huge failure (got KICKED OUT OF COLLEGE, because he had a .2 GPA...because he was an alcoholic by the time he went into college...at a public college no less) and the female cousin is a huge success, currently going to be heading to PHARMACY SCHOOL in the fall. Sorry for the rant, but I'm hyper-pissed that those relatives think everyone NEEDS to be at my uncle's house and around a DYING MAN the entire time, now that he's taken a turn for the worse....which is the LAST THING A DYING MAN AND HIS FAMILY REALLY NEEDS, having like...6-10 people there for hours on end... A few at a time over the course of a day, sure....but not what they're currently doing. ******** morons. The only reason I'm not there is because my mother knows if I'm there and ANYONE says ANYTHING to my people I will most likely read them the riot act for crowding a DYING MAN...and a few other things like never respecting us and how I'm glad my one b*****d aunt was unable to have children because I'm positive she'd have ruined them just like her mother did since her and her mother are so goddamn similar. Grr.
Nika. What I'm talking about is how the majority of society, while they do contribute, are woefully unaware of their shortcomings and how that causes major problems for others...how their inability to understand larger concepts, their tendency to be vociferous about things they only partially understand, and their constant need to force their opinions/beliefs onto others because they think 'I know what is really the best for you, because I obviously do', and when they're told they are anything but smart, knowledgeable, etc...they get offended because they either cannot see or do not want to see that they really are wrong. And that causes more problems than anything else. Being stupid is fine...as long as you're inflicting your stupid on yourself and if not, you're willing to own up to your stupid and apologize for it. Something most people cannot and will not do.
Yeah......but it's still not a great idea...because being around someone 100% of the time, as appealing as that may be at times...is not a great idea. That's why people have multiple friends, a job, school, etc...so they don't burn out on those people. Because too much time around one person makes their little annoying habits build up over time and make the relationship much more volatile...
Gah, I want to see his face. I need to...I'm in the negative on people dealing power and I've ended up basically sleeping a couple days away in a subconscious attempt to recharge, but that's not working very well...so I'm also spending a ton of time in my room online trying to use that too...geh.

Yeah...I just prefer not being in a movie theater...even if it is nice to see a movie on a gigantic screen.
Yes, it is a Colin Firth movie.
I've never read the comic it is based on, so I have no idea what all they changed, but it's pretty good.
