Ain't nobody tryin to get indicted.
Well said young man. Fam, I have been ugly my whole life. I am not funny, handsome, or tall. I'm broke and I piss people off. The girls I have pulled are fukking beautiful.
Do not count yourself out G. It sounds corny but this is true, you have to be confident and know yourself.
Girls like excitement and danger. Don't listen to anything they say about stability. Be wild while she's stable. Dating is about balance, not symmetry. Imagine dating yourself, shyt would be boring right?
Identify what type of girl the chick is and balance her out, be yourself no matter what, and be edgy. No girl is out of your league.

You're in too deep. Respecting your boss is different than being intimidated. I bet you don't know many people keep people under them they know will succeed. This successful person did not hire you because you are not good at what you do. Draw boundaries, give people a lot less of you and block your coworkers on FB. She may know what it takes and she knows you have it. That's why she's all up in your business. She wants to know where it comes from. Jay Z is a good example of what I'm trying to say to you. He's been able to stay relevant by associating himself with new talent by "mentoring" them.I can no longer randomly vent on Facebook or igboss follows me. I had been doing really well. I always do with not giving out my social stuff. I barely post anyway. But some how with this job they have suddenly gotten all in my business literally. It happened so fast
The pressure of working for a creative, when you have your own stuff you are trying to create. I am intimidated because she is so far ahead of me and her knowing people who are where I want to be already makes me feel incompetent. Partly because I feel she expects a lot because she knows what to expect what it takes so her seeing my stuff I automatically feel judged. Maybe its my own insecurities and frustrations projecting.
I really like this job, and getting to do side things for her company is amazing. I feel like I have been put in the position to learn a lot and make connections...If I can handle it.
Be Neymar. Be Kyrie Irving. Be Kobe. Go your own direction and be confident. Mentorship is great, but do not be a victim of your psyche. You have what it takes and everybody sees it. You just have to believe in it. Be arrogant and observant.
You are building her brand. fukk her side projects. You need to be doing your own projects and building your own network in the industry. Stop building someone's brand and thinking you are not good enough to build your own. Your work is being used to build a brand, it just isn't your brand. View it like that, that is the reality of the situation.
I'm about to cook a big ass breakfast.

Low Key breakfast is the hardest meal to cook. You're probably a better cook than you think.
Thank you for this
The thing is I was hired for something else. It's a small company so everyone is like close, in your face. It just so happens she is an artist. Neither of us knew what the others outside life was. I mean she told me she was an artist in passing when I started. People say that and it's just like oh ok that's a broad term. But I learned and also researched she is a for real for real artist with murals, a real studio, commissioned works, in museums, etc... Really connected and heavy in the Art community here and other places. She isn't necessarily intimidating me, like brow beating... but I do feel like she judges even if unconsciously. But I also know some of this is my in head.
She found out what I am trying to do, and includes me in things and also has me on different projects outside of the company that has to do with her art. She does think I'm talented and sees my creativity. That's why I say I've been put in this position for a great opportunity. I had no idea coming in. But yea I feel like sometimes I am too invested. I do need to draw lines with her and just personally with how much of my spin I am putting on things for her.

What you see, is what you get
I'm out at the mall and some random guy comes in behind me asking when the movie opens. As I'm walking we have general conversation about the theater/mall. He asks me how I get out here tell him I use a Transportation service for ppl with disabilities. He's says he knows ppl who use the same service we talk about the different transportation providers.
At this point, I'm ready to cut conversation short to go to get something to eat. Dude gone "say I'll roll with you" I'm like :notsure:[take a hint] so I get to walking dude is still following me. I said "You know I got something else to do talk later."
No way in hell am I gone let you follow me all around the mall. Point being some ppl need to learn boundaries.

I found a poem I wrote for somebody I cared about when cleaning my computer. The crazy part is I wrote it a year ago almost to the day (8/22/2016) and the crazier part is we were in a similar space in our friendship, not speaking. I wonder what that means or is it just a coincidence? I would like to send it to them but we don't speak anymore and that's a shame.

She's judging you. She declared she was an artist. That's arrogant.Thank you for this

You've said a lot about yourself in two posts and did not call yourself an artist. You described yourself as having creative projects. You have a great opportunity to learn the game. Don't play yourself. Art is competitive so is a business. You remind of a young kid on a team of vets. Yeah, you don't have the accolades of your teammates but you wouldn't be on a championship team if you couldn't play at a championship level.
Learn as much as you can but always focus on what's best for your goals. You weren't put anywhere, you earned it because you have the skills to do it.
I have very low self esteem. It takes me years to take small steps. Recently I took a step in my profession I did not think I was ready for. I haven't applied for a job in like ten years. People offer me jobs and I still think I suck at what I do. My first day of work proved to me I got to be more confident in my skills. I have a lot to learn, but I have a lot of skills too. I think you and I are in a similar space. We are professionals for a reason.
I stopped doing something three years ago and I still get calls and texts from former clients to work for them. I thought I sucked at that too which is why I changed careers. 3 years out the game and I still get contacted to come work. I guess I deserved to be where I was. I played myself by listening to my psyche and thinking I was too young and not successful enough to be where I was. I didn't realize I was where I was because I earned it and had the skills to be there.
