Last November a woman at my place of work was hell-bent on romance with me. I wasn't interested. In an act of resistance I posted about it here. I also consulted with professional counselors. Long story short, my course of action was to write a letter to the woman stating plainly that I did not want romance. The result? The woman retaliated, and became angrier than a nest of molested hornets. Wouldn't speak to me, wrote nasty emails, and spoke against me to anybody that would listen.Difficult situation, eh?
The counselors then had more advice for me. I was told the next step was to write to the woman again, and ask her how we could improve our working relationship and restore congeniality. And after that I was to invite her into joint counseling sessions.
I really didn't want to write letters or extend invitations to this woman, but that's what the counselors said, and I would have followed their advice to the letter. I even kept a freaking diary, just so I'd have good documentation if my job was ever in jeopardy.
Just today the situation turned around in my favor. This woman is leaving for employment elsewhere. DELIVERANCE! Thank God, thank my counselors, and thank Centralians.
I hope nobody else here ever has to go through this kind of crap. Responding judiciously to a blundering love-sick angry woman is sheer hell. Thank God she is moving on! I could have been stuck with her at my place of work for years.
