Posted by EchoHonestly, I don't think it was ever him being embarrassed by you. A lot of this is just miscommunication between you two. Him thinking you should know, and you thinking he should know.Posted by nikkistarI see okay. 😥 This made me realize why he didnt want anyone knowing what was going on.Posted by EchoThat is his fault for not communicating it to you. But I almost bet, he got pulled aside by management and they had a "talk" with him. That he was more than likely being considered for a promotion, but then the rumors were brought up to him.Posted by nikkistarIt was happening around December. When I noticed he was distance with me and our communication just suddenly died out, our long joy of laughter and jokes faded. 🤷♀️Posted by EchoThere is always a reason for a specific action for most people. For him to go to that extreme, to tell you not to talk to him at all at work, had to have a reason behind it. It is especially so, when someone is trying to get a promotion, and now has to mitigate rumors of him potentially dating someone that would possibly be a subordinate to him if he received the promotion.Posted by nikkistarNikki, you nailed it. Everything you said have happened. I didnt want to say the rumor part cause that shit was too long to explain and I didnt know where to fit that part in.
I don't really condone his behavior. But it sounds like he is going to the extreme when trying to manage his social life with work. There is probably some sort of fraternization bullshit at your work, and there are probably rumors going around about you two. This is all assumption on my behalf, but him "hiding" you to this extreme, is probably due to this. His joking around with his bestfriend is likely because he isn't sexually attracted to her, so he doesn't have the same kind of stupid thought process of remaining indifferent to her at work because "I wouldn't sleep with her" comes into play.
But for you, it seems like he is being hypocritical, which causes conflict between you two because he views it as you throwing a possessive tantrum in his eyes. I am not saying that is what you are doing, but how he probably sees it in his head.
At the end of the day, all I gotta say is, don't shit where you eat. Work place romances are messy af. Because your personal feelings become intertwined with professional aspects.
And let's be real, people at work are nosy and busy bodies. The rumor mill has probably been churning about you two for awhile.
I was asking him what was going on, cause apparently I was the last one to found out that the whole entire store knew about the rumor flying around. He lost all patiences with me for asking him, and that's when he told me to back off and didn't explain anything. He didnt mention anything about a promotion until January.
So I respected his words and ignored him at work. 🤷♀️ Just watch from the distance and admired him.
This is why I say, don't shit where you eat. I will tell you a story that I recently heard. This guy, was a lead in his department. He started dating a girl in the same department. She actively disregarded work protocol, and began to systematically bully another girl in the department, that the lead (her now bf) liked prior to getting with her. Now this mean girl, also slept with a few other guys in other departments, but her new bf had no idea. She ends up leaving the company, and gets an office job. However, her and the lead bf move in together. She is still friends with the other girls from their department. These other girls come over to the lead and the ex-employees house to socialize still. Mind you, he is still their direct supervisor at work. Well, the girl continues to gossip and have the other girls still working there, go and bully the girl still, eventhough she no longer works there.
It is now so bad, that corporate opened an investigation into it, because the girl being bullied submitted a complaint. The lead, did nothing to protect her from the bullying, because his personal feelings were biased towards his gf, and her friends that worked under him, and came over to his house.
This is why policies are so strict about work romances.
Cause I was always pondering why the hell he wanted to keep it low key that we were talking to each other and I questioned myself, if he was obviously embarrassed with me or something.
Because yes, he was pulled aside from the store manager about what was going on between us in his office. And I did found out that the Scorpio was no longer getting a promotion cause of the rumor.click to expand

Long story shot. I want to send my virgo ex a happy valentines day text. Just to let her know that she will be forever in my heart. We have been apart for close to 10 months now. What do you think Virgos? will she freak out or just ignore my text?What will exactly go on in that ever working and analyzing mind of hers.

Depends on where you’re both at now? Has it been no contact or are you friends who hangout?

I hear this over and over again, all over social media
But dumb FUKING dxp gave me advice to chase the Leo sun Taurus moon
And to this day i regret it
Because it garnered me nothing and actually made me feel bad
Yet again i wrote about him recently and a crab this time told me to go hard
Instead i did what felt right, delete any interaction we've had
Wtf is wrong with you ppl
A woman should only go hard for her goals dream not a man that's not hers
A man's instinct is to chase

I mean, if you were aware that he was pulled aside by the store manager, and that his promotion fell through, I can see why he would assume you should know why he told you that. He was basically punished professionally due to whatever you guys are doing.
Remember, not to let your emotions get the better of you, and to immediately go into a negative space. Don't assume he will know everything, "just because". Half of this stuff, could have been prevented, had you just talked to him about how it bothered you he could horse play with his friend, and not you. He would have explained it to you in a better way, because it devolved into you cussing at him, and calling him a bitch, and him belittling you. And talking to you as if you are an inept child that can't understand.click to expand
