I would like a real conversation with him cuz my coworkers gets to have a conversation with him. But in reality, he doesn't even say hi to me every time he's here. I usually say hi first and he says hi back but in a much less friendly way. Hell it's a very cold hi. And I posted before when he said "have a nice day" instead of hello. And neither of us were leaving. I left my position in back drive between orders just to see him as he was making his way to the back only to be met with "have a nice day." He clearly don't want to talk, so I kept trying. But every sentence I said was met with one or 2 word answers before he finally got what he needed and bounced. I hated that.

I need to prepare how I respond if my current GM or coworkers intervention don't' work. Ideally I would control myself and not break down.

How do I be a full time adult baby if I'm also working full time? No rewards chart, no snack time, and no nap time. NO play time. No sandbox.

You cannot force him to talk to you. No one can. I wouldn't be surprised if your DM isn't telling you she'll talk to him just to get you to shut up and do your job, and she has no intention of saying anything to him regarding having any kind of conversation about you1family or friends. You are barely a coworker now. You are a former supervisee. That's all. The most you can expect out of that relationship is a "hello." He has no reason to say anything more to you.

Do you see anyone else at work behaving like a baby? Is anyone else at work getting a rewards chart, snack time (outside of scheduled breaks) or nap time?

It's simple: if you want to be a full time baby then you will have to quit working. If you need to experience age regression to such an extent then the workplace is no place for you, and by no means should you be forcing it on your coworkers and supervisors.

Ruby fetlife is where you find people who share your kink, not work. You can’t mix the two. And honestly you don’t sound mentally stable enough to join the bdsm community at this point. They would tell you the same thing we are about your inappropriately placed feelings for your boss. You’ve got to get over that.

Ruby, I recommend that on Monday (unless you are scheduled to work all day then do it the first day you are off) you call around and see if there are any other clinics with earlier therapist appointments, also call that clinic you talked to earlier and see if anything else is available earlier. Call your GP or if you don’t have one, call your insurance and ask to recommend you one so you can have regular GP. GPs can help you with locating a therapist/psychiatrist etc Please make it your priority

Even though it’s probably possibly to find a man who’d engage in all kind of fantasies and even though it’s not unheard of for adults to act as babies in their private lives, this is not something your work place would care about or need to know about. You cannot be full time baby at work. You likely will not be able to be a full time baby at home either. You live with your parents and it’s likely not something they’ll tolerate. Am I right?

Asking your current GM about your previous GM is asking for trouble. Please just stop asking about him.

Focus on getting help at the moment. Even if you must wait for an appointment.

I’m just started seeing a therapist through Teladoc and it’s 100% covered by insurance. But the real good news is the previous GM called my store yesterday to borrow stuff. My current GM told him I’m being good, just like I had asked her to lol. He said that’s great.

We didn’t have the stuff he wanted so he never came in. I asked my current GM if we could please order extra supplies of everything for future truck orders. I want us to have stuff if he needs to borrow in the future. She said no.

I still have hope though. Cuz of the unexpected good nees

Glad you are seeing a therapist. Please do tell all your troubles to the therapist and ask for help in improving. Ruby businesses cannot be ordering extra items to accommodate your obsessions with your boss. Bring that to a therapist please

My current GM also said I could take as much time off as I need. So if previous GM comes in again and ignores me, I know I can always request another month off. I get this accommodation and still get to keep my job. I have to request a week in advance though.

Ruby, you are regressing again. Please address this in your therapy. You are an adult, not a baby or a child. That's nice that they are accommodating you at work, but they should not have to - you get upset because of an obsession over a boss who chooses to not engage with you anymore because of your obsession. And now, you're obsessed with winning back his attention. Please address your obsessiveness in your therapy. It's your greatest downfall.

When my current GM told him over the phone that I’m being good, he said that’s wonderful. Isn’t that a hopeful sign he’ll talk to me in all his future visits to borrow stuff? If he didn’t like me, he wouldn’t have said that’s wonderful, so he must care on some level. Correct me if I’m wrong

He lives his life. You live yours. Try to find other things to think about. You aren’t friends or family and there’s nothing for you to talk about. Try to move on

Your thinking is completely off the mark. I don’t think you should be working there. I find it hard to believe that your family and your vocational workers have washed their hands of you, especially if you’re still living with your parents. In my opinion you need to experience some serious consequences in order to understand the errors in your thinking. I believe the term is corrective action.
Thanks for this!

Obsessive and stalkerish thinking. Find something else to think about.

To mental health professionals. IF your mind is truly this non-functional, you have no place working especially where you are currently that deals with the public.

I haven’t thought about him since my current GM talked to him on my behalf. I’m too busy working and sleeping all day on my days off work.

He most likely thinks it is wonderful because hopefully you will behave and leave him alone. He has no interest in you other than as a worker in the store. He cares as an employer. That's it. You are not on his agenda when he comes to the store. He doesn't want to have a conversation with you. Leave him alone.
Thanks for this!

Drinking what? If it’s alcohol, then no. If it’s from the bottle, then not yet. I’m finding it difficult to get it into the baby lifestyle because my family REFUSES to support me on that. I’m stuck merely watching YouTube videos and envying all the adult babies in it.

I don’t even LIKE having to make this choice (of adult babyhood). My depression is just so overwhelming I don’t know how else to cope. When the Arby’s incident happened, I tried drinking and getting really wasted. It didn’t help so I stopped.

I’m doing my best with what I got. I’m calmer at work now and more clear headed. I actually enjoy doing my job now. But the hole in my heart…

Ruby adult baby is a kink and a fetish, so either post about it in the sex forum or go to fetlife or Usenet or somewhere like that.

Ruby you have to be an adult first before you can engage in an adult lifestyle. This wouldn’t be something your family would support you on. I don’t think you know what you’re talking about. A healthy sex life is part of a mature adult life , something you get to enjoy as part of being a responsible human being. Some of the things you say sound psychotic .

To me, it’s non sexual because I adamantly don’t want to involve sex. If actual babies have no awareness of sex, then I’m completely disregarding sex

I worked night shift yesterday and I usually work day shift. A guy in a wheelchair came in and it became clear shortly after that he didn’t need a wheelchair. He speed walked to our counter asking for sauces and he speed walked to the restroom.

My coworkers talked among themselves that he’s not really disabled and that he seriously needs to go. After a few exchanges like that, I joined in saying he’s not affecting us so it’s really not our business. One of them asked me to repeat myself, so I did. Then they told me to go do something cuz they weren’t talking to me.

Wtf! People can be unpredictable. Those same people were friendly at the beginning of my shift. They allowed me to join in all their other conversation that day, before the one about the “disabled” man. So much for joining a normal conversation. Maybe they feel strongly about kicking him out.

When I was in school and a few classmates talked about how hard an exam was, I said the exam was super easy. I breezed through it. One of them went, “that’s nice.” And went on talking.

It’s a hit and miss joining a conversation. Sometimes they let me in, sometimes they don’t.
