Wanting coworkers to understand what I've been through just so I can have someone at work who understands while also not wanting anyone to know anything about it because it's not their business and would just be a piece of gossip that no one would know what to do with is so tiring!! Seeing other coworkers make connections and friends with other coworkers and I feel like I'm not able to connect and bring anything to the table to socialize with. I told a coworker I'm seeing my chemical romance and marilyn manson later this year and she didn't know who either of them were. I see them socializing and making casual plans and it seems so easy. I used to be able to make friends and now its so hard and weird and complicated
