I did not want to be her friend. I just wanted to be civil. But we kept talking and sharing and now we're inseparable.

I realized early on that she enjoys my company and I thought it would be rude of me to shut her off and push her away because she hasn't done anything to me. My guilty conscience went, I wronged Mimi by allowing her boyfriend to disrespect her so the least I can do is at least try to be a nice person to her.

She carries some guilt, but it's skewing her understanding of how it all went down. Exactly. Yeah. I told my boyfriend about Bob and Mimi and he's the only person whose opinion about me matters. But I can't help but feel like an absolute piece of trash when Mimi shows me pictures of her kids and I have to pretend I don't know which one is which.

I'm not going to tell her anything about Bob, it's not my place, it's up to him to decide whether he's going to be truthful towards his girlfriend. But I'm tired of always feeling like a horrible person while I'm just trying to live my life the best I can.

How can I navigate this without hating myself every day? How can I have a stable work life when every day Mimi comes in, I'm scared she found out? How can I go through life thinking that I'm a decent person when I'm basically lying to the person I spend the most hours in the day with? Signed, feeling like a traitor, almost like I baited her for butting up to my neighbor when I was the invader.

Jordan, I was thinking when I was working on this letter, we need a word for when a Feedback Friday situation won't end. Like when you think the doozy is over, but then it just keeps coming back. And I came up with one.
