This may not tick me off so much as make me sad, but I ran into one of my old work friends this week. I've known her for almost four years now, and she was one of the few managers I had whom I was actually able to develop a decent friendship with. She quit a year and a half ago because she couldn't handle Ms. Moody anymore. Man, I wish I could do the same thing...
But anyway, she got married about a year ago. I still remember well all the excitement getting to that point, and seeing all the beautiful pictures. And things seemed to be going splendidly with them. But at seeing her last week, she commented how she lives in a new city now, thus she's not in the area much any more. And she has a 95 year old roommate, so she might as well be living alone. I asked "You're alone? But what about...?" I admit, I forgot his name. But she wouldn't have let me finish anyway. She shook her head and said "uh uh". So I bit my lip. How sad! They were so happy a year ago, and so in love! I have no idea what happened, and I'm uncomfortable asking. I guess I'm hoping she'll contact me on the web and tell me, but I doubt she will. And what makes things worse, she looks totally different and was dressing in a much more "trashy" way. And her personality seems to have changed. She's much more loud and aggressive now, not sweet and soft spoken like she use to be. I'm sure the split up had something to do with that. That's always sad to see. I know I probably don't really know her anymore.
