Again, I do think that she can solve it with money.

But if it's because she feels lonely, that's a relationship problem.

That's not even like a childcare thing.

That's just purely a relationship thing.

And maybe you guys should talk about the things you expect from each other in a relationship.

But you can't really ask someone to quit their job because you feel a bit lonely.

I don't know.

Okay, let's read another one.

This is from the Reddit thread Coworker Stories.

How to politely tell someone to F off.

I'm a manager.

Someone has recently joined my business area.

I'm not his direct manager, but he does kind of feed into my team slightly.

He seems to think sending me messages offering to help is the way forward, but they're coming off as condescending and they're pissing me off.

Example, this morning he's messaged me asking if I need help setting up two meetings.

I don't need help setting up fucking meetings.

My initial reaction is to go back with, I know how to set meetings up, but thanks.

But I fear that's too bitchy.

Any suggestions?

Also, I understand that he's probably just keen, but this isn't the way to go about it.
