Background:

- Was seeing a girl I work with for a few months.
- We barely see each other through the holidays.
- We message on NYE back and forth. She asks what I'm doing and I respond. --- No reply and the messages weren't ever marked as read.
- Over the next few days I send three followups being like "?" "Hey?" And "Are we good?", same deal.
- I begin to think she's pissed I didn't invite her to NYE.
- A few days later at work I asked her what was up and mention NYE. She seemed genuinely surprised I thought we weren't good and told me I was "overthinking" and that she wasn't checking messages and was "busy" with life.
- I made some comment about how if she wanted a break from talking or w.e. she could've just said so and she kinda chuckled and said something like "that's too uncomplicated for me"

Whenever we happen to work together things are civil and friendly. Almost like nothing ever happened, albeit she's not as physical/handsy as she was prior, obviously.

We still haven't spoken outside of work since. I made no effort to reach out and neither has she.

Anyway, I'm seeing other people rn but when she's around even though it's nice we're still friendly I feel like I'm still hurt/sore over what went down. Gonna try to shift stuff around so we're not overlapping as much.

Honestly like we weren't official or had talked about being an actual couple couple (even tho we acted like one) so I wouldn't even be too pissed if she just called shit off

But I'm just pissed over how indirect all this shit was.

Like she doesn't owe me attention so w.e. if she doesn't wanna bombard me w texts or FB messages and wants to detach and go back to doing her own thing then fine, but I'm still pissed about it.

My younger sister had to endure me venting about this and she seemed convinced that she wanted to stop seeing me because she was busy/isnt feeling it rn but wanted to keep the door open and not friendzone herself and that's why she just drifted off instead.

And I'm like that's even shittier than just wanting nothing to do with me lol

Never get involved with coworkers. That's a rule I have.

Female coworkers do slap me in the butt sometimes and flirt once in a while, but that's the farthest I go >_> If you get involved with them and it turns sour, you still gotta see them every day and work with them and that can cause problems.

Yep. Honestly the only reason I got together with her and broke my "no coworker" rule was we were friends for years prior so there was a lot of good feelings and comfort there

Eh yeah I think that's the bit that confused me

Like if this were some Tinder bitch or someone I met in a bar I wouldn't give a shit but the fact that we had had a prior relationship before we became a thing just had me scratching my head.

Now I've given up trying to piece it together and I'm just pissed and annoyed lol

A coworker felt my chest and grabbed my dick. She cried rape when I pushed her off of me. Luckily I had a witness.

I can definitely relate, TC. This is why I don't think I would ever pursue a girl at work, I'm not lucky in love at all and if things go especially wrong - which they tend to do - I would probably have to leave my job as a way of getting away from what happened and healing from the experience.

You seem like you're being proactive about your work situation, which is good. But I think it's probably a good policy going forward to keep your work life and love life seperate. Like imagine being so upset by a potential breakup that you have to find a new job. This scenario made you feel a bit weird, and you're taking steps to mitigate that weirdness. But imagine if the fallout was so nuclear you knew you couldn't stay at the company.

I hope this works out for you TC. Whatever you have to do to cut the tie and numb yourself to the situation.

the 'thats too uncomplicated for me' line is almost a blessing in its shitty behaviour

the last girl who hurt me was very, very confusing with her behaviour but would always come across very rational and kind with the way she did it(and the way she said things). her actions really betrayed her words which left me with even more questions

i wish she was as straight up cringe as this girl, itd have been easier to tell myself i didnt miss out on much

Honestly it's not even the fact that we were seeing each other for months, it's the fact that we were friends for years prior.

I'm also a bit sketched out in that she was apparently into me the whole time and was trying to make stuff happen.

So now I'm like was it literally just all to get into my pants? That makes me feel kinda uncomfortable lol

I dated a girl I worked with once. We were pretty good friends, then started to hook up, then started dating. This went on for a few months. Like I said we were pretty good friends so we knew each other pretty well. She mentioned that we should move in together. I was going to move in with her. Everything was going great. The next week I got really sick. Strep throat. I told her I would stay home the next few days. We stayed in constant communication. Calling and texting. Once I was better she said she was making me dinner, homemade tacos. I go over and she says this isnt working. I am shocked, just 3 days earlier she wanted to move in. I could not get a real reason out of her. The next day at work I was still pretty mad so I stayed away. She confronts me and asks if I am just not going to talk to her anymore. I said I am not ready to. We eventually made it to where we could talk, repair our friendship as she put it. Then she tried to tell me that I could not date anyone that worked where we work. We worked at a restaurant/bar. She also said I could not date customers. The red flags were waving left and right. This new smoking hot bartender started working there and we started talking. This girl got so mad saying I was a piece of shit this and that. She was a nutcase. When I started dating my wife, she would call and text me and my wife. She would make really personal conversation to my wife saying things like "Kizzle likes that, but I know you know that dont you kizzles wife?" Just inserting herself into our lives showing that she had slept with me. We both blocked her on everything after that.
