Long story short. One of my colleagues at work has really upset me recently.
So recently I went on holiday abroad and before I went i was getting a weird vibe from her, normally we talk and laugh with each other fine .
However, I feel like she has been using me.
She started working on the unit 3 months after me and in the beginning no one liked her because she was a very slow learner and was seen as rude by many because of her tone sometimes. So I took her under my wing and taught her a lot of things and even helped her get extra work with an agency(we are nurses). And she would often ring me and rant to me about work.
However, as I mentioned before going on annual leave her tone changed and it seemed as though she was avoiding me in a way? Something just felt off. She is from India and her family were supposed to fly down to the UK from India to visit her before I left so I asked her "are you excited for them to come?" And she answered by saying "why do you want to meet them you seem more excited than me" which I was a little taken a back by and couldn't tell if she was being sarcastic or not but when I looked at her face she was being serious. I just thought this was a very weird thing to say and just didn't seem right.
I brought back some Turkish delight for her from holiday and told her I'll drop it off to her as she is on annual leave and I didn't want the food to go bad, however she kept saying next week, yet next week never came around and I found out she is actually on annual leave for another 2 weeks.
I feel like she has just thrown me to the side and I bought the gift specially for her as she got me something from India the last time she went aswell. But I'm starting to realise she's not the person I thought she was and feel upset and betrayed by her attitude and actions.
I want to bring it up to her but don't know how to approach it, as I don't want it to turn into an argument knowing were going to be working together.
