Yet another situation that could be avoided by simply TALKING to the other person. People are so afraid to rock the boat that they hold on to their minor annoyances until they fester. That is how mole hills become mountains. Tell your office mate in a respectful yet firm way what you just told us. She might take it personally and think you're a bitch, but I'll bet she leaves you in peace.

I think she likes you.

Maybe even LIKES you likes you.

My advice...

Never ask for advice on I,Anon. Nothing good can come of it.

Tell her you spent the weekend at the Ace of Hearts.

Advice you say? Well, what I would do is get real chummy with her. Start it nice and casual, go get a drink after work, eat lunch together, etc. Then, when she trusts you enough to let you over to her house, upper deck her toilet AND THEN TELL US ABOUT IT ON HERE SINCE THAT'S WHAT THIS PLACE IS FOR, NOT ASKING ADVICE!!

god i'm proud of our commentarazzi on this one

(with the exception of 1 participant who mistakely is trying to help) this is a shellacking the I,A team will not soon forget. Those fools.

Here's what I do:

1. Get a t-shirt that says "I'm not prejudiced, I hate EVERYBODY"

2. Put a sign on your desk that says "Excuse me, but you must have mistaken me for someone that gives a shit"

3. Come in to the office on the weekend and set up an elaborate prank that will be blamed on her.

4. Get a sense of humor and lose your sense of entitlement. If it was all fun, they wouldn't have to pay you to be there.

For genuinely helpful advice, try Quora.com.

Pull your self together. You are being taken hostage by someone's emotional need to blab. Tell her "Shutie, can't work and talk".

So *are* you seeing anyone special these days? You can tell us. Also, how many oodles are in a bazillion?
