Re: What is rustling your jimmies right now?

[(Anonymous)]

I picked a wedding date, and it's something that's kind of silly/whimsical. Told a coworker. Coworker immediately started telling me about her daughter who had 10 wedding guests because of some numerology bs and they got divorced after two years. She said it like divorce was the most shameful thing. I told her it was just a little joke, not a superstition, and she tore me a new one about how NOBODY will take our marriage seriously if we treat it like a joke, adding "I certainly won't", as if that matters. Told her a wedding is not a marriage. She said why even get married then. Later on she says "how mad at me are you?" and I was like "eh nbd" and she goes on another rant about her daughter and how...I remind her of her daughter...(newsflash I'm not your daughter)

This isn't the first time she's taken offense to a choice I made about MY OWN LIFE (somehow me choosing to stay home for Thanksgiving instead of travelling a bunch was about how her kids never visit her) so like, I know it's a her problem but jfc I'm just gonna...stop telling her things about my life if I can help it! Who cares what someone else's wedding date is or why they chose it? She doesn't know a damn thing about my relationship.

UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Definitely stop sharing information about your life. That lady had issues and they're bleeding over into her professional life.

Yeah, just go professional on her ass. Stop telling her anything. Like if it's not work related it's not her business. And you have my sympathies because jfc people like her are exhausting.

Also, lol I CANNOT IMAGINE WHY her kids never visit her.....

Re: What is rustling your jimmies right now?

Ha, no wonder her kids don't visit her. I'm sure that if you were foolish enough to ask, she'd have allllllll sorts of reasons for why their relationship is in the toilet that totally aren't her fault.

Thank you all. Sorry I didn't respond, got caught up in a show and baking cookies and then went to bed and now I'm up stupidly early with insomnia, but all these comments made me smile.

She is projecting something fierce!

I don't even get what not taking someone's marriage seriously even means as a threat. I get not taking someone's wedding seriously (if you tell everyone it's super casual nbd then don't be surprised if people treat it like nbd) but if you're legally married then you don't actually need other people to "take it seriously," especially not a coworker who has no power to exclude your spouse from family events or deny you spousal rights. What's she going to do, pretend you're not really married? What does that even mean in the context of your work relationship?

Don't invite her to the wedding and stop telling her stuff!

lmao don't worry I would never invite her, we're doing a VERY small family thing

I definitely regret telling her ANYTHING about myself and it's gonna be tough to change going forward, maybe I'll look for tips on Ask a Manager or something. It's a super small office and it's impossible to avoid her unfortunately.
