I had a long chat with my boss who said people have said, I’m authoritative and stand my ground. He asked me to retrospect and fix this. And I’m thinking what’s wrong with that, why’d they hire someone to think and lead when they want me to do the opposite. Eventually what I realised was that the problem was that I was a she being all this and not a he. If I wasn’t a woman in management they’d actually have listened and not dissed. And they kicked me out of the project I was anchoring and had worked quite a few midnights on.

I've noticed my close group of friends can get quite competitive with each other at times. They'll one-up each other's accomplishments, make snide remarks about jobs/appearances, and there's an underlying tension of trying to be the "best" friend. Is this typical competitive behavior that happens in female friendships or is this level of passive aggression a red flag?
So even I have my girl gang and we are a trio. We definitely have way many arguments and conflicts however we never had this thing to be ahead of each other. We always wished to get success together. So I think this is definitely a red flag and u should avoid being a part of such group

I have personally dealt with such things and have come to conclusion that it's female nature

Bu ara belirsizlikle seni ne zorluyor? sımsıkı yapıştığımız belirsizlikler,sorunlar,kutlamalar biliyorum ki kafanı yoruyor,huzursuz ediyor.Haklısın. Belirsizlik içimizi tedirgin eden bir durum. O anlara saklı bir hediye var o da özgürleşme seçimi. Özgürleşme kapısı; değişimle ve belirsizlikle barışmak. Hayatın kendisi değişim. Bebek,ergen,genç, yetişkin, geçişlerimizde hep değiştik.Her şey belirsizdi ve bak şimdi burdayız. Çok korktuğumuz sınavlar da bitti, okullar da, evlere de çıktık, ilk maaşımızı da aldık, bunlar gibi bir çok örnekte hep belirsizlikle başbaşaydık. Kalbinde kaygı ve belirsizlik yoğunsa “Özgürleşmeye Niyet et” ve tekrar et ki “Bu günler gibi bir sürü deneyimden geçtim ve hepsinden özgürleştim,şu anda da bunun içindeki özgürleşmeyi görmeye niyet ediyorum. büyük değişimler içinde özgürleşmeyi fark etsen kim olurdun? #özgürleşmek #motivasyon #yaşamkoçluğu #farkındalık

Ben daha 1 hafta önce küçük bir değişim için özgürleşmeyi başardım✨💫 eşim, biraz sağlık durumumdan dolayı biraz da kendisi istemediği için dolgu, botoksa karşı çıkıyordu. Ben de doktorumdan izin alarak gidip yaptırdım. Eşim benle 1 gün konuşmadı🥲 ben üzerimdeki gizli prangaları kırıp özgürleştim. O da bana sonrasında uyum sağladı😌

In psychology class, I learned that women tend to be more unhappy in marriage than men. Do you think that is true, and why? @RC_Mayanka
I think both male and female can be unhappy in marriage. Why they say girls/females because when they are at home alone, they might think about so much of insecurities in life. In this cycle of imagination they can think of any worst case. But nowadays girls have so much to do they don't think much about husband, family issues etc. Now if the male sees a successful smart female partner he is either jealous or insecure. On the other hand if the female partner is simple he might compare her with other female colleagues. Thus became insecure in his Married life.

There's nothing wrong in being too traditional. Whatever you do people will always find faults in you and criticize you. Just ignore them

I feel my friends are always trying to change my opinion and make me do things and think the way they do. Is this manipulation?? How do I know that these are the signs of manipulation??
