Emotional, needy - I hate being like this. Gggrrr.

brokeworkaholic

Just having a really bad emotional "taking it personally" day....boss phones me & has a go at me assuming I did something badly & wrong, wouldn't let me explain so now I really do not want to go to work tomorrow with them thinking ill of me without allowing me to defend myself.

My husbands gone on to his nightshift so I'm alone crying about work & I've tried calling friends but they've either gone to voicemail or have texted back saying they can't talk. Haven't said sorry or even sent a hug. I'm never needy & so now I'm even more down because I've come accross as just that so I'm wound up about that.

It's great that my friends are having a good evening, I'm not envious or anything, I'm happy that they're happy....I just wanted someone to talk to. I know there are people out there a lot lot worse off than me & I'm usually so positive that this has come as a big shock to me today. All hugs welcome please.

Thanks for letting me get it out of my system. I am sure tomorrow will be ok.

Sending you a Hug too. I think we all get days like this, but I would be going into work tomorrow asking your boss why he thought it necessary to ring you on a Sunday, out of order in my view.

All the best for tomorrow.

I'm sure you're already feeling better now that you've posted here. It's not needy to want to vent occasionally. It's really upsetting to not be able to talk freely when you're emotional - I totally understand that.

Aw man, who needs others to tell us off when we are perfectly capable of beating ourselves up eh?

I am fully with you on the frustration and upset over the injustice of your boss doing a hit and run during your own personal time, but then, just at the exact point where you need someone to turn to, you find an empty space.

You know what? After what has happened you deserve a break. So I gift you a free slice of neediness. We all feel this way now and again and if you aren't careful you will feel even more needy after the beating up you are giving yourself for feeling this way.

There may be some days when you may feel less sensitive over this kind of thing, this isn't one of them.

Personally I recommend some little treat, a bag of maltezers, or a hot chocolate and the distraction of a soppy chick flick and a huge box of tissues.

I really hope after a bit of self-pampering when you need it, you will feel more than ready to face your boss with your side of the story tomorrow, and if you did mess up own up and learn from it, and if you didn't, then make damn sure everyone knows that whoever got it wrong, it wasn't you.

Get up tomorrow and get in there and put them right!

Go for it, if you feel strongly enough to post on here then you must have the inner strength to sort them out tomorrow

You have my support

aww hugs its horrible when people aren't there .... it always seems that I have my crisises at "inconvienent" moments too.

Have you tried writing it down? and then moving on by doing something relaxing - I love colouring! You can get some adult colouring books from amazon.

(((((OP))))))) I'm having a day like that too and there's nobody I can talk to about the stuff that's flying around my head. Not because they're busy, just because there are some things you just can't tell your friends.

I hope you feel loads better soon and manage to get it all sorted out with your boss in the morning.

I have days like yours very often. Sometimes well in my life people you think are your friends are not actually and it's never more obvious when you need an ear or a helping hand with this and that. For example someone I haven't seen in months emails me to ask if I can look after her two girls at her house when your childcare provider leaves? WHAT? I mean I have kids aswell and a house but she doesn't want to being them to mine.... oh well she will have to find someone else. She didn't offer to provide lunch or anything... so I'm thinking I'm obviously been taken for a ride!

Thankyou to you friendly bunch, the hugs & words were lovely.
Had a great day at work - boss obviously felt incredibly guilty, told me I was fab in my job etc etc. & to top it off one friend that I texted yesterday asking for a chat (who said they couldn't talk & never contacted me back until this morning) popped round out of his way in his lunch break & gave me a hug. Yay!!
