My cowoker is annoying me!?

Ok i have shared an office with my coworker for about 2 1/2 years and she's driving me insane. First she would get too much into my personal business. She has recently met this guy who's she's "in love with" (he's still married and is going to separate soon. BUt that's all she ever talks about, she tells me just about everythign they talk about, she forwards me some of his emails, reads me his texts. he has even looked at places where they going to have their honeymoon once he divorces his wife. they keep telling how perfect they are for each other, blah blah blah. is making me sick. im happy she found someone, but she's in cloud 9 and i don't want to hear it!!!!! Is like i want to get my work done w/out her having to tell me everything 24/7! am i being mean?? help

They recently saw each other over the holidays and have been talking for about 3 weeks. and they are already apparently in love.

If she is not your friend just tell her you are not interested and you want to get on with your work. There is no easy way out in matters of personal relationships.

I know how you feel. I also have a coworker that has been bothering me for a few months now.
I struggle with trying to keep a conversation going with her but each time, I struggle and my thoughts come rushing back. The whole office is out of wack because of her and no one knows what to do.

If I were in you shoes, I would be just as frustrated. Honestly, theres nothing that you can say or do to her and will make it better. She's just that type of person. (I've come to realize that with my current coworker.) No, you aren't being mean. What you can do is listen to her and politely say that you don't want to hear what she has to say about her personal life.
Hope that helps.

just tell her that whatever decision she made NOW, you are not keen to know at all, because it's not your problem anymore, it's best to avoid her rather than getting involve with her personal problems, focus on your work yeah.

Tell your co-worker that you want to still want her as a friend, but when you are both are working you want to keep it on a professional level.Tell her that maybe after work you could both go out for drinks after work and discuss her personal problems, not while you are working, because it is a big distraction,and you
really don't want to get fired.because you really need the money.Hopefully she will get the hint.Good luck and your not being mean....

Show your Latin temper.... Just kidding


Be nice and tell her "As much I would love to hear what happened this weekend I really need to get this done but I cant concentrate I get distracted a lot maybe we can talk later. I'm really getting behind work because we are always talking let鈥檚 ton it down. Thanks.

That鈥檚 all you need to say then next time she is annoying you, you have more of a reason to ask her to stop. Be honest with her you don鈥檛 want to hurt her feelings but honesty is the best way to go. Ask her to tone down the talking

why don't you just tune her out? in the end she will catch on, and realize you are annoyed as hell, or maybe just busy working. either way she will shut up. that is the best way to handle a person that has no respect for other people and their space!!! didnt you ever do that as a child? its the sweetest revenge.
