It might be. Unfortunately, I think Ruby has shown over and over that she tends to not want to do more than skim the surface of analyzing what's going on. Despite having what I suspect is a higher than average intelligence level, Ruby seems to me to be actually trying to avoid thinking in any depth. Ruby has a smart brain and can be honest about herself. Those are two important assets. I would advise Ruby to slow down and not try to oversimplify things.It takes patience to understand just about anything. What sounds simple and straightforward isn't always what's true. Truth often has twists and turns to it. Becoming mature means being willing to see deeper that just what's on the surface.

The supervisor at the fast food restaurant did not "hate" Ruby. I think Ruby needs to understand why she is very wrong to jump to that conclusion. The supervisor got to where she dreaded Ruby. People's feelings are not always real simple. Dreading the sight of someone who is being obnoxious is not the same as hating. This supervisor started off wanting to see Ruby succeed on the job and was supportive of her. Then she got to where dealing with Ruby was a draining experience. Finally, enough was enough. Ruby has yet to express even the smallest understanding of what that was all about. It seems to me that making this short list is a way to avoid really thinking about what is getting her into trouble.

I recommend that Ruby make different kinds of lists. Make a list of the rights that other people have - like the right to be left alone. Make a list of what kind of behaviors come across as "stalking." It's no good saying, "I better stop stalking people.", when you don't even know when you're doing it.
