Susan - tell me what you think about her

You want to hear this one. I spoke to Linda tonight and Linda said today Susan called Linda and told Linda not to talk to me and if Linda does Linda should not say to much to me. Linda could not believe what she was hearing. Linda said what happened that Susan said this and I told her about my conversation with Holly. Susan is almost 60 but acting 12. Linda told Susan she does not see me that much, but Linda knows that Susan will call her again so I told Linda just say to Susan that she has no right to tell you who to speak to or what to say and you will talk to her another time and then hang up on Susan. I also told Linda that if she says anything else to Susan then she is feeding into this nonsensical conversation and Susan will be thrilled like a child. Linda likes my advice. I told Linda that Susan told me that three people told Susan they are not going to go Holly's house for a party because Holly was so happy about Susan being fired. Linda said "No one said that, Susan twists and turns the truth, I was one of the three, I did not want to drive to Holly's alone at night so I was going to go with someone else but they just had surgery so they did not go, so I didn't either and I dont know about the third one, and the party was two weeks ago - it was not for Thanksgiving" She does not like Susan at all. She calls Susan a troublemaker. I told Linda that Susan called me and said "I heard you spoke to Holly about a job where they just fired me from and Holly and Linda still work and I never want you to call me again you are a horrible person" I just hung up on Susan. No one can understand why Susan is so upset that I sent my resume in to the company. First of all I was not applying for her job because I was under the impression Susan had a completely different job from what I do but it turned out she lied and is just a secretary and not an Account Executive.

BACKGROUND ON SUSAN: Susan never grew up. She is 58. She is in for a rude awakening with the job market because of the recession and her age. Any one I tell what Susan did is in disbelief, no one understands it - a month after she was written up at work she went to HR and her boss and said "I cannot stand the stress - when are you going to fire me" and guess what they did. She wants to meet men like my male cousins, my brother-in-law, and my male exbosses (good looking and powerful). I told her men like that will never date her or look at her because she is very immature. Susan said in a childlike way "Do you think my mom knows I loved her" and things of nature. Susan dwells on all the fights she had with her mom when her mom was alive. Her mother passed away a year ago, but was in a nursing home for a year so Susan was on her own the year her mother was in the nursing home as well as a little over a year since her moms death. It is not that she is a victim it is the fact that her parents kept her as a child. They never let her grow up, so now that both parents are deceased she is still in the childlike mode. Her father drove her every where, never encouraging her to buy her own car and drive herself. Both her parents took care of her up until 2000 like she was still a little kid. They never encouraged her to be an adult once she reached adult hood. Her father died in 1999 and her mom died February 2009. When they wrote her up at work a month ago, they told her that the paper would be ready to sign on Monday, she was just going to sign it, until I told her to sign it BUT sign it under protest. She did not know what that was and I had to explain the concept of "Sign Under Protest" So not a victim, but a baby, immature. Also she never had her own health insurance plan - she was always on her parents. Afraid of growing up. She does not complain she just looks to people to be her parents, instead of her being the grown up woman.

Voterperson,  Then do as Susan asks.  Don't call her anymore.  You need a job and money, so you can feel free to apply anywhere and everywhere.  Things are hard for everyone right now.  Just because Susan got fired from the company, is no reason you cannot apply there.  Maybe she is just a little jealous that you may get hired.  If Susan does call you again, just tell her that you are going to honor her wishes, and not bother her anymore.  Tell her you would love to still be her friend, but you can't if she won't let you call.  Then don't worry about it anymore.  Just give it a little time.  I am sure Susan will soon realize what a mistake she made, and that she will be losing all of her friends if she keeps talking the way she does.  If Susan still does want to be friends, maybe you can encourage her to seek some grief counselling.  She is feeling guilty over the fights with her mom, now that mom is gone.  Maybe talking to a counsellor will help her to get over her grief and her guilt, and make her a more enjoyable person to be around.  I hope you have a very Happy Thanksgiving, voterperson.
