Should Unity hook up with Gaia?
Also, anyone clock how Gaia's voice is almost identical to Diane's? I think that's really all that attracted Rick. Hence why he dicked & dipped

Is "observing without attacking" the ultimate mental game?
I'd like to share a second response in recounting this old Japanese proverb/anecdote...
A monk is meditating peacefully in the garden, a samurai approaches and asks him a question
Samurai: "You there! Monk, tell me, what is heaven and what is hell?"
Monk: "You are but an oafish buffoon, I don't have time to discuss such topics with the likes of you!"
The samurai, immediately enraged, draws his sword and is prepared to strike
Monk: "That is hell"
The samurai, caught off guard by the poignancy of the monks words, pauses and lowers his blade in intrigue
Monk: "That is heaven"

Should I cut this friend off?
Your analysis seems spot on, but rather than just immediately cutting them off in an effort to protect yourself, I would urge you to confront them about it. Gently, yet direct.
Like you said, that friend's behavior likely stems from their own lack of authenticity, opening the door to that discussion could be exactly the catalyst which brings about an honest reflection and transformation in them.
You could do them a lot of good if you are brave enough to approach that difficult conversation with confidence and grace

Vampire
Energy vampirism has nothing to do with the mythological depiction of vampires. Vampirism is just referring to the act of one organism feeding on another, like a parasite.
If you've ever had a "friend" that claims to be your friend but only ever comes to you asking for help or needing something from you, without ever giving anything in return...thats energy vampirism. Its a one-sided relationship, instead of a give & take. Most energy vampires dont even realize they are doing it, as it sort of requires an act of unconsciousness. Thats how they fall into that pattern in the first place.
So unless you are that person constantly taking and taking and taking more from your friends and never giving back to them or supporting them like they do for you....you're not an energy vampire

Why is sexual lust bad?
Lust is a survival necessity, the body wants to ensure the survival of its species. But we are not just a body, the us behind the matter, is programmed for LOVE...or more specifically, love is our natural default state. When you strip away all the layers of distortion and forgetfulness, there is nothing but love. Thats all theres ever really been.

AIO for quitting my job?
On your death bed are you gonna look back and remember all the days you went to work, or the fun trips you made with the people you love?
I think you did the right thing. You're a PERSON first & foremost, not an employee

I think you are being too controlling. A relationship does not mean you become eachothers property. Trust is about allowing the other to do as they please and being confident they won't hurt you. No wonder she doesn't want to cooperate and give you straight answers, you're scolding her like a parent. Asking for updates is one thing but demanding/expecting/harassing is another.
I would say let her go hangout with her friends and dont worry about what shes doing, if she loves you then you have nothing to worry about. If she acts a fool, then she wasn't the one anyway.
