Coworkers always cry out of no where when I work with them.

It’s always awkward, because it’s usually my first time meeting them. The woman I was working with tonight mentioned how she use to be a teacher, and then it some how went to her mom dying a few years back, and then her getting a divorce, and a whole bunch of other personal stuff. 😬 it’s out of no where they start telling me a whole bunch of personal stuff when first meeting them, and then they start crying 😬😬😬. I always try to look sympathetic, but I can’t relate to any of their situations like divorce so I’m just like “....that sucks”


Definitely a way to make an awkward person even more awkward around you. Lol

They are drawn to your energy. You should see the complete strangers that approach me with crazy secrets when I'm out and about.

It is an uncomfortable compliment. 😨
@Peaceful I honestly do think it’s something like that with me, and I’ve always thought that, because I always end up in weird situations like that even when I don’t ask for it. I use to genuinely care about people problems and want to listen, but I literally don’t even have the energy now or care to.

@Stark I get that. I listened to a chick tell me about murdering a raccoon the other night with her car and not putting it through her insurance because her mom was convinced their rates would go up.
@Peaceful lol wtf 🤣

@Stark it is. But it's happened for so long, I plan for it.
