Ever have someone you felt you were their protector? Working intensely, …. tirelessly… sacrificing yourself for them to shield them from life’s pitfalls and perils?

However, when you see a change is needed in them for their best interest, and you give the suggested change, they ref...

We had been dating for only a few months when my ONE fell on bad times.  His injury was causing him to be unable to stay caught up on his bills. He needed someone to help manage the money he’d saved up for a crisis—a true rainy day—such a day like the current one. I saw he was becoming desperate for help and knew I had the ability to handle the job. But I had been staying quiet on this point; lett...

We met as colleagues at work. We've been dating for almost a year now. He's really handsome, witty, and I've always enjoyed the creativity of his imagination. That is until a few weeks ago.

Sadly, that’s the individual the group is looking to… to challenge your authority as a lea...

They ask….  “You’re my best friend and I want to apply for this position that is the same rank as you and I know I’m qualified, but don’t know how much money to ask for… How much money do you make? ” You think to yourself, I know I make much more than they think I do.   If I tell them, will they get upset and throw my personal information out to the world?  But if I don’t tell, will they say we’re...

You are one of the best employees they’ve got.  You’re competent. You deliver on time. You do excellent work with no hiccups. And then it happens. You’re at a weekly catchup meeting with the boss and they hit you with something—a comma you missed in a sentence, two spaces after a period versus one—some minor error in your written report that they say has placed the entire organization in jeopardy....
