I had a friend in college who would interrupt me whenever we were hanging out as a group. She was incredibly kind, so our group figured she just didn't realize when I was talking. Finally we let her talk over me for a while to test our theory and had to stop her after 10 seconds.

Don't let the situation kill your joy. Joy is the best way to fight back in your everyday life.
The best part of Capital One having cafés in some of their branches is that you can arrange to meet someone there with minimal chance of it being misinterpreted as anything other than business.

Personal news for those who know me: my mom died yesterday. I've been in California at home with her for the past few weeks, and I'm still trying to figure out how grief is going to impact me. I'll be fine, eventually, but wow what a hole she's going to leave.
