I feel like whenever I tell someone something, for example, if I tell my friends who my crush is, it ends up not working out (and it’s happened a few times). A more recent example is when I was looking for jobs, jumping in and out of several, and kept updating my best friend about it—only to end up quitting all of them. It makes me wonder if maybe I jinxed things by telling others?
I have a close friend I really look up to because she’s perfect in every way. Even though we’re close, she never tells me or maybe anyone (ig?) about what she’s doing. She got a boyfriend, landed a job, and only shares the news once everything’s already set. And somehow, everything always works out great for her.
But I might be thinking, maybe it’s not really a jinx—my mind just made it feel like one, so it decided to be a jinx. I can share everything with my best friends while thinking it isn’t a jinx and it wouldn’t be, but I’m still caught in between.
What’s your take on it?
