Emotional tension with a coworker in a position of authority is exhausting me
I just need to vent because this situation has been weighing on me for a long time.
Since the very beginning of my job, there has been a strong connection between me and a coworker who is in a higher position than me. Over time, we grew close. There’s obvious chemistry, flirting, sexual jokes, lingering looks. It’s not subtle. You can see it in our eyes. It feels mutual, but also unspoken, like we’re both afraid to cross a line.
I’m in my late 20s and he’s in his late 30s, which sometimes makes the dynamic feel even more complicated.
We’re both rather shy in general when it comes to emotional or romantic situations. He tends to be reserved, and I am too, which I think has contributed to how much remains unspoken between us.
There is also physical closeness between us. Nothing explicit, but frequent touches that feel charged brushing hands, standing very close, small moments of contact that don’t feel accidental. Alongside that, he’s very caring toward me checking in on me, being gentle, attentive, and protective in a way that feels personal, not just professional.
When I first started working there, coworkers told me that before I joined, he had said he didn’t want a relationship a

Device had driver_power_state_failure and now drivers won't stay installed
Hello, I have a computer that had DRIVER\_POWER\_STATE\_FAILURE (0x9F) BSOD. I did sfc /scannow and DISM, neither helped. It continues to try install updates in Windows Updates and drivers (Bluetooth, net) which are not sticking. Once I restart and check windows updates they're there to be downloaded and installed again.
I did reset the windows update service, restart the computer, checked event viewer for anything awkward.
Where to start?
what to do if you lack critical thinking skills but are also self aware of it
hello everyone! i am a 27F and in the last few years i have realized i am kind of an idiot, lol. i value intelligence, but as i’ve gotten older i realize that i am kind of dumb— it’s like im air headed and lack critical thinking skills compared to everybody else i interact with. the issue is, im horrifically self aware about this and as much as i have tried to change and improve it’s gone nowhere. ive been dealing with this for years, but my self esteem since i’ve gotten a new job in the last six months has absolutely tanked because it’s even more obvious in the field that i am in. i have tried everything, being more “invisible,” educating myself more, just trying to laugh off whatever embarrassing thing i did in front of my coworkers, etc.
i guess it’s just an extremely hard pill to swallow, and i have got to figure out how to not feel any lower than i currently do because i am at rock bottom, lol.
thank you in advance!
edit: edit to add that i don’t feel like i don’t have value or bring anything to the table, but this one aspect of myself is dominating all of the other qualities about myself that i view as “good” because this constantly impacts everything around me
what actually helps depression?
im sixteen and ive honestly tried everything and nothing seems to do anything to help it, the whole of last year i was severely depressed and i begged and begged for professional help but i cant afford it and doctors tell me im not sick enough yet.
i just want it to be out of my system now, its been almost seven years. im so beyond tired of it. i just want a week where its not there and i can breathe. i think i have a decent life besides being poor and in a fucked up house hold. im confident and i have a friend, one friend. i cant seem to find any other friends yet but collage is soon so thats helpful.
it just never seems to leave, i cant have a week where it isnt there. anytime i feel good and am happy something happens to ruin it. i was having the absolute best month of my life. i was so unbelievably happy constantly. i was so excited to be awake and then i get hit with my mother being a drug addict and hiding it from me for the last five years.
