Ugh! I'm done.

Last Thursday we were chatting and had what I thought was the beginning of an interesting conversation. He said he had to deal with a crisis at work and I asked if everything was OK. He said he needed to explain to his boss why he needed a transfer to a different branch (he works at a bank). I inquired about the transfer and he said, "yeah it might be a better fit."

I asked "why is that?" and then he abruptly stopped talking to me. I heard nothing from him until Monday morning. No explanation. Was I prying? Should I have asked no questions? A "better fit" is a vague reason for changing jobs and is often a lame excuse for personal failure. I know people who have used "better fit" as a reason for leaving a job. In reality they were fired. And probably for good reason.

Now the texts and chats are very superficial. "How are you?" "How's your day?"

Please just stop.

I think it says a lot when I would rather do work than talk to him.

Just go away.
