Drunk sluts always get the attention

[minicoo]

So this is so stupid and shallow. I'm actually feeling jealous of a girl that I work with because she gets way more attention at work than I do. Now I've never been the popular one, never, but at work I'm respected and liked, but now there's a new girl. The thing is though I'm not sure that she's really respected or liked. She sleeps around a TON,

I've been thinking about this lately too. Thanks for sharing. I have a friend whose primary mission is to bag as many women as possible, sleep with them without protection, and then compete with his friends over the number. I think this is shallow, mildly destructive, and ultimately not getting him the affection and fulfillment I assume he wants. But then I realized that outside of actual harming himself or others, I philosophically want to believe that he can do whatever he likes! Who am I to say what his life goals and pleasures should be? So I'm trying to judge him less, and release him from my expectations. What do you think?

I like what you said about judging less and releasing him from your expectations. I feel like I get so caught up in this other girls life and what's the point. She can do whatever she wants and can I do what I want and what makes me happy. I guess some people are just like that and never really grow out of it, we all have our vices and we all do destructible things that make us feel good. I see this girl today and there's a lot of other crap going on at work so I'm really not wanting to go in, but if I can just remember what I think is right and just do my job then it'll be ok.

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, it's amazing how much we project our goals onto other people's behavior.

Think she likes her own life?

she kind of seems to, that's the strange thing to me. She loves to tell us stories about hooking up with guys and she's always telling me how she loves to be drunk. I guess she's happy and that counts for something.
