so its been about a year since Stan has been in our life. looking back on the situation now i laugh. i think i laugh because of how awkward, cringy the whole thing was. of all the weird texts, complements, and comments he would say to our coworkers. some stuff still bothers me, but most of it i look at that a weird grown ass man trying to hit a a girl 10 years younger than him lol.
i shared this story in one of a podcast i did for one of my classes for school and i think speaking out on what happened gave me some closure that I didn’t know i needed. i got feedback on my story and people understood how i felt which i thought no one would. Because i didn’t see it the same as other’s experiences who were a lot worse then mine.
i am now at a different job and have someone special in my life. and you’ll never guess where i met him… at the job with Stan. yes he was my coworker, but he’s not half my age and approached interest in me like a normal human should. He actually helped me through what happened and took up for me when Stan would talk inappropriately behind my back. so i guess good things came out of that situation and that is why I always look to a new tomorrow. Because better things and greater might be waiting for you in the days to come.
