this is mainly about real life but also online, i suppose. >_<

like where do yall find someone to be just as obsessed with you as you are them? do i just need to get very lucky? at this point, they don’t have to be obsessed with me, ill do alll the work, they just don’t have to mind it :(

im tired of stalking, being possessive, and creating these delusions when i know my feelings arent going to be reciprocated </3

i can’t keep doing this to myself and it sucks that the likelihood of me finding someone who would appreciate what i do is like in the negatives っ ̯ -｡

luck is not on my side… ever and i just wanna hear about some of y’all’s experiences with this <//3

there is nothing worse than posting on a venting subreddit and venting about some bullshit you need to get off ur chest and men dming you trying to take advantage of the situation.

i either wanted advice or just to vent. i don’t understand why every moid has to see this as an opportunity to try to and weasel his way into my problems.

i wouldn’t mind if their intentions were clean but most of them are trying to take advantage of you for being sensitive,sentimental, depressed, or delusional.

it’s driving me insane and i’m at the point where i just don’t want to post at all it’s so frustrating >_<

i’m writing this at work so excuse the typos and stuff lolol

So I (19F) have been working at a family-owned ice cream shop since April. This is a job I have fully between breaks and part-time during semesters of college. My boss (M30+) (idk his real age) is the worst communicator on Earth.

Anyways, we have locations all over my state and are branching out to other states, so I work at the newest location that just opened in May. Our original location had a cult following (practically), so I really wanted to apply bc all my friends adore the og location.

The thing is, the store I work at is… severely under-stocked. We never have anything. We run out of ice cream early in the week and don’t get a restock until Friday. We ran out of gloves two weeks ago, and the owner keeps saying ‘oh they’re coming with the next shipment’ WE HAVENT GOTTEN A SHIPMENT IN WEEKS.

I open the store, so I’m alone from 9:30-4:30pm 4/7 days a week, and since I’m taking next semester’s off, it’s gonna be that way for a while.

I’m the only one who ever texts my boss what we need because he sucks at responding. My other coworkers used to try, but he would either never reply or not open the message, so they gave up.

A few weeks ago, I noticed the smaller of our two freezers was displaying an error, and the temperature kept going from 3 to 15 degrees F randomly. Idk about yall, but I don’t feel comfortable serving ice cream that’s been at an unknown temperature all night long.

I mentioned this to my boss in person two weeks ago, and he said ‘well, keep an eye on it’ so I have. If I text him about this, he doesn’t acknowledge it, so I have to wait until he’s face-to-face with me to talk about anything.

Today he came in to drop off our weekly shipment of ice cream (half of which we have an abundance of bc no one likes stuff like pistachio over cookie dough…) and while he was here, he was on the phone, which didn’t bother me bc I was also opening, so I was busy.

The thing is, I really needed to talk about what we need at the store: we have barely any toppings, we’re low on hand soap, no gloves, the freezer is acting up, no more employee drying towels, low on hot fudge, we ran out of two of our most popular toppings a month ago, and WE NEVER HAVE ANY CHANGE OR CENTS OR BILLS OR ANYTHING AT ALL!!!!

But as I was grabbing what I needed from the back freezer and he was sorting something in the resister (still on call), I heard the door open. Assuming it was a customer, I went to go check to see. Instead, I SAW HIM LEAVING.

Like fuck, I guess it’s on me for not interrupting his call… but he does this every week. That or he comes in before I do and drops off the ice cream. All so he doesn’t interact with anyone.

It’s pissing me off. My coworkers hate how he’s so avoidant, and I’m one of the only ones who still texts him telling him what’s going on at the store, even if I know the chances of him reading the long list I wrote are slim.

Man, I also have social interaction issues, but never, and I mean never, would I do this to my employees.

I get people yelling at me and lecturing me on the low stock, no bills, etc., BUT I’M TRYING ITS NOT MY JOB

I’ve been thinking of either texting him or waiting for him to come next week so we can have an actual conversation about what we need and why he needs to be more active in responding to his employees.

Half of my coworkers don’t gaf, so I feel like I’m going to explode and that I’m overthinking this and that this is normal for a store like this, but the other half agree… but no one is gonna say anything to him.

Before anyone asks, no, I don’t have a manager. He’s the owner who lives in a nearby city and tends to all other stores in this state. Plus, all my coworkers are on the same level as me. lololol

silly question cuz the answer is probably ‘see a therapist’ but i’d rather die than talk to someone about this and get labeled a loser blehhh

i’ve been emotionally caught up with a guys who’s said like 4 words to me all throughout high school and even though i graduated last year, i recently got this sudden burning itch inside me to know every single thing he has said or done since i last saw him. (since i used to practically follow him around school i havent had my daily dose in over a year >_<)

so i’ve been obsessively trying to find him everywhere i can. and since he doesn’t have social media other than discord… it’s hard. though i did find his address and i’m one bad thought away from driving near his house since he lives like five minutes from my work place….

im not that much of a freak though lololololol hopefully.

im writing this at work bc my brain is not behaving correctly and i feel like im going to crash so ignore spelling mistakes! :3

anyways, some advice would be appreciated!
