Witchcraft 🧙‍♀️

I would like to… perform some witchcraft on some ppl…

Umm… is that ethical?

Is Witchcraft even real?

Ummm… what do u have in mind?

I feel like I’ve let my guard down recently and that’s a really big mistake.

Huh?

I’m not usually that friendly at work. Yes, I can be friendly, but I’ve worked in too many places. I don’t like to get too close.

But u’ve hung out with work ppl outside of work. 

Those are the OGs.

What?

The longer I’ve known them, the more comfortable I feel around them.

I am very overwhelmed with the energies of new coworkers. I don’t fuckin know who the fuck they are. I don’t know these people. I don’t really particularly want to talk to them if it’s not necessary.

Hmmm… I didn’t know that about u.

Now u know.

So… what is the witchcraft? Ur not hexing them are u? 😅

No. They haven’t done anything but be extremely friendly there’s no reason to hex.

You… don’t trust… extremely friendly… coworkers……. 😳

Not initially, no. Everybody is friendly initially. How is that trustworthy?

Oh… 🫠…

My witchcraft involves a visualisation of a protective bubble of personal space.

Think of it as energetic social distancing.

I don’t fucking want to get too close to ANYBODY.

Unless they’re the OGs?

It takes time to even assess the OGs.

I need room to be my best self at work. And that means my protective energy field is maintained. 

Why r u saying this like it’s my fault? 😅

BECAUSE IT IS.

😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

I don’t like it. U made me let my guard down.

How?!

By being too emotionally supportive. I turned soft.

Oops?

I don’t want to talk unnecessary discussions at work. I’m done. It feels exhausting and I need a mental break from it.

I don’t think ur coworkers have said anything more than what normal cowokers talk about at work?!

THAT’S ENOUGH. NO MORE!!! 🙅‍♀️

Why ru feeling this way?

Because I don’t know them.

What does that even mean?

It’s not the same as the OGs and most of the OGs have left.

What does that mean?

It means I don’t know any of the new people and because I don’t know them I don’t trust them. This is the fictional character’s inner journey for this blog by the way it has nothing to do with real life.

Ummm? So as your emotionally supportive husband... how else can I support u? Emotionally? Without u getting mad?

Sigh…

Don’t ASK ME about my WORK DAY.

I’ll just TELL U if I actually feel like TALKING ABOUT IT.

Uhuh…?

I feel like this is counter-intuitive… for us…

What’s really going on?

I don’t trust new people.

U feel like u can’t read them?

No. It’s not that… their energies are sticky… and I don’t like sticky energy around me…

What is “sticky” energy?

People who are too curious about me.

Huh?!?!?!

STOP ASKING ME QUESTIONS ABOUT ME AND JUST TALK ABOUT YOURSELF AND LET ME LISTEN UNTIL I’VE SUSSED YOU OUT BECAUSE I DON’T KNOW WHO THE FUCK YOU ARE YET THAT’S WHY YOU’RE A NEW PERSON!!!

Woah… 😅😅😅

I don’t understand how anyone would naturally become coworker friends if both sides felt the same way as u… lol…

So it’s already a jarring dynamic. It’s an incompatibility even in friendship. How did I get along with the OGs? It developed slowly, gradually, over time… it takes time……….

Sigh. U need time with new ppl…

Yes.

And if I suddenly appeared that is also overwhelming?

Maybe.

U need me to chase u… gradually…

Maybe.

U need time to trust…

WHO DOESN’T?!?!? WHY R U SAYING IT LIKE THAT?!?!?

I’m just trying to understand u!!!

I’m also genuinely curious what are the personalities of the “new coworkers” that ur like “they’re too new, too friendly, I don’t trust them yet”

Well u just described it my love.

Sigh. I see.

Aren’t you also Mr “I don’t trust anybody” — ?!

Yes… (chuckles)… I’m just wondering how u developed this mindset and how I missed that memo… at what point in time? What else was happening? How? When? Huh? What?!?!?

I’m almost 40. It just creeps in. The scepticism thickens with age.

Sigh… are there any semi-OGs?

U mean peripheral OGs?

Lol… I dunno 😅

I don’t want to go to drinks tomorrow night.

What?!

I’m gonna observe how people react when I say I’m going but then I don’t go… 👀

WHAT?!

Also I simply don’t feel like going. I’ve changed my mind. I don’t feel like going.

Why…?

Something is off about the energies. I’m not going.

What’s off?

I don’t know. I barely know any of these people. I’m not going.

Is this fiction? R u going or not?

If I go… I will stick to the OGs I trust, and keep my guard up with newbies that I’m still sussing out.

I’m not gonna say I don’t trust them… but I haven’t sussed them out…

OMG. UR LIKE A CAT.

What… r u talking about…

UR A CAT. UR LIKE A CAT HIDING UNDER THE COUCH WHEN NEW PPL JUST WANT TO SEE U AND SAY HI AND GIVE U A QUICK CUDDLE AND UR INSTINCT IS TO HISS AT THEM BECAUSE U DON’T KNOW WHO THEY ARE!!!

… … … 😑 … … …

Yeah, ur right. I’m like a cat.
