she has done it once before as well, I run my own business which I have done for years now and, randomly, about a year ago, she started EXACTLY the same business, after first asking me all about my work, how I get my clients, etc
I found it odd but obvs it is a free country so of course I would never have said anything....she gave it up after a few months, not sure why
I have now decided to do some volunteer work. I won't say what it is as it is quite niche and identifying, and certainly not something for everyone (what I will say it is working in quite difficult situations with vulnerable individuals - its not something like working a few hours in a charity shop or similar)
a couple of days after I told her, she has asked me if they need anyone else and has asked me for their number ...
and for the sake of full disclosure something else weird happened, a few years ago I introduced her to a friend of mine (they had never met before) within weeks they were "best friends" and joined at the hip and now they are closer with eachother than either of them was with me iyswim...I was a bit hurt at first but, again, its a free country
I just find it a bit strange - I sort of feel like she maybe wants to compete with me in some way...?
maybe I am being U am not sure, putting it to the mn jury just out of interest! as sure as hell cant say anything to her!
