So a few years ago I had to work with a lady. She wasn't my friend I think and she had certain ideas that really bothered me.
- she always said how busy she was, though she wasn't. She completely believed she was overwhelmed busy.
- she always was complaining about other people - to the point that it annoyed me. Very negative and mean.
- she was a SLAVE to modern medical advice. If the doctor told her to do it, she did it, no ifs ands or buts. Like doctors were gods.
- she constantly seemed obsessed with shoving food in my mouth and was the number one reason I failed dieting.
- Weirdly she only liked certain people at the workplace and this people i didn't like.
- She had a really nice family life but always seemed to complain about it.
- She always complained about the computer system we had at work but would never sit down to try to learn it and often, so often, I would be called upon to show her how to use it but, she would never learn (presumably because I was there to show her).
This lady and I separated when she retired and I was all the better for it. Then, two years ago I got a new workmate (who never knew the retired lady) and we became friendly and yesterday I noticed she is this woman reincarnated. Right down to liking the same people at the workplace.
I have come to the conclusion... it has to be me. It is me. Period. I have to create these people. It has to be me.
You might think that is an overreaction but I noticed this with my pets. My cats all come into my house with every different personalities and then, they all start acting the same in very negative ways.
So I think I have to stop this... but how? What am I doing?
