Search Results: time to let go

In my friend group, there are 2 guys that are married and they have completely different marriages.

Friend A: His wife constantly checks on him. He works from home, she works in office, and whenever she has a break, she calls to see what he’s doing. He claims that he loves it, but to me it seems like she’s always monitoring him. During my birthday party 2 years ago, she called him 4 times in a 3 hour span to see where he was at and ask if it was over. One time, we left his house and drove 15 minutes to pick up pizza. As we’re driving back, she calls to see where we’re at because in her mind it shouldn’t have taken that long. I don’t think she trusts him. She’s also forced him to change where he does his hobbies. He likes to play pool, but he can’t go to his favorite pool hall 30 minutes away. He has to go to the one 7 minutes away and be home by 9:30 pm.

Friend B: His wife never checks on him. Every time we hang out, his wife never calls or texts. For instance, the other day, he told her that he was going to play basketball with me from 8:30 to 12. He only lives 10 minutes from the court. After basketball, we went to get protein shakes and chatted until 1. A complete contrast from my other friend. He said that if he’s out late, she’ll just go to sleep and hear what he has to say in the morning. She trusts him completely.

I like Friend B’s marriage, however I wouldn’t mind a little text after let’s say 30 minutes of when I was going to be done to see what’s up. I could not do Friend A’s wife’s excessive calling.

What kind of partner would you rather have?

My boss has stabbed me and all my coworkers in the back countless times. Do they really get that tmuch pleasure out of screwing someone over when they could get so much better cooperation and maybe volunteers? For doing nothing?

She goes out of her way to screw us over. She canceled my vacation and never told me so flying off at 5pm and getting a text after hours that she needs me. I'm on the schedule this weekend!

My coworkers can't do it without me cause heaven forbids she let them have a brain or her keys!

Her social life needs to stop affecting her work life. No wonder her bfs never last a month with how clingy she is.

Department head just got an award and just before they went to the event she flat out tells her that she will be accepting the away with her.

My boss has no idea what the program does never entered her building and is demanding she share credit so the higher ups see this useless boss stealing an award.

Maybe when I get back I'll give her a copy of the key just tweaked so it won't work!
