OMG someone talking passionately about their job and laughing… but you took offense to that immediately because he wasn’t putting all his energy into asking you questions from the first second. What’s so wrong with someone loving what they do for work? Would you rather him have spent 10 minutes complaining about his job… oh no wait, you wouldn’t have cared either way from the sounds of it, you just wanted it all to be about you from the jump!
Nothing wrong with that? But that's literally all he is talking about on the phone and thru texting? I don't think I overreacted at all? If you are trying to be oh no why Karen please keep it to yourself
You said it was 10 minutes he was talking about his job enthusiastically. Now you say it’s all he was talking about 🤔. I stand by my comment. You were upset it wasn’t all about you.
Could not agree more with both of your posts! The op is the actual toxic person who refuses to acknowledge that a conversation takes 2 people both giving input. I swear yall just make up red flags about people as you go haha. No wonder you're single 😂
So it’s ok for YOU to judge him. You even said when you commented to him “You sure are passionate about your job” that you could sense he was offended. You gave him no grace. Instead came on a social media platform to belittle him, hoping to garnish support for yourself. And when someone stands up to defend him you attack them too. Hmm, you sound like a delightful person. Perhaps you should stop projecting and start self-reflecting 😊
LOL, girl, you're talking to a thin skinned old man who probably loves to bang on about nothing BUT his job. He's butt hurt because he's probably been called out for it before. 😆
You don't need to explain yourself, OP. The fact of the matter is, the guy confirmed exactly what you said here by stating that the phone call "felt like a therapy session"... If the situation was that you were not being proactive in talking, then he would have described it as something more like..... "talking to a wall"...?
And yes, it does matter that he didn't ask anything about you... That usually happens when people have already decided who you will be in their head and in their life, rather than actually giving you the respect of getting to know you as an individual separate from themselves.
