Understandable. It is scary the first time. Mine got stuck too, I used a spoon handle to break the suction.

If you can get past the fear, it is great!! It’s like not being on your period, and you only empty it 2x a day. That’s a whole day at work or school not worrying about it!

I was on the Paris metro when I made a similar mistake. It was in July in the midst of a heat wave.

I stepped right into a pile of vomit and it was too late to escape when I’d realized what I’d done.

Sandals ruined, lesson learned. You will most definitely not make this mistake again :)

Hi thank you for reading and your input!! True it is a bit unusual, when we first started hanging out we were both fresh out of shitty relationships so I think paying for things was my way of still feeling valuable to someone, it's just something that never phased out I guess, but it's mostly small things like coffee/breakfast/lunch things under 40$ but lately it's been rather expensive in an effort to cheer her up 😅. It is possible I may have feelings on a small scale I do love her as a friend no question, we do rely on each other for emotional support quite often when I have guy/girl troubles and she's having guy troubles, even non relationship troubles. So I think there's a part of my brain/heart that recognizes that she would be a good partner. Maybe I should take a step back for a while, figure things out on my own

Brother, you're learning a lesson right now. The former boss was too good and you got spoiled. Sucks to have to learn the hard way that most bosses aren't like that

You should apologize to her though. I know you feel too guilty to reach out, but you should still. Be the adult you should have been before and at least let her know that you regret it and miss her presence. Being fired messes with your self confidence, she needs to know that she was good
