So, I am late to the game & this is my first time watching B-99! I've always loved the office & parks & rec, but recently watched the good place & loved it sooo much that now I'm here!!
Anywayss. I've come to realize that I am a Charles Boyle 1000%. I am always the loyal friend who hypes everyone up & I go out of my way to always remind people the good I see in them. Most find it odd at first since nobody is used to niceness, but then they learn that's just who I am. A positive, loyal, hype man!! I am also extremely non- confrontational, super thoughtful, & quite frankly.. a bit desperate for approval/ love!! I was told recently at my new job that I am a "certified ass kisser" 😂😂 which isn't exactly true.. I just love being positive & kind.
But what made me realize that I am Charles Boyle & he is me.. is the episode with Gina & Peminto lol. I actually loved Charles's logic about being a "beta bitch" so much that I realized I've done this my whole life!! I've ALWAYS attracted friends that are bitchy, rude, blunt, & just overall more strong in that way. Whereas I've always been the overly nice, kinda dingy but loveable, supportive, too emotional/ loving/ caring friend! & Its always been a balance of being told I need to be harder/ colder. While me telling others to be softer/ warmer basically. & This has always lead to me having people around me who will fiercely defend & protect me since I usually will not do it for myself!!
So I've managed to ALWAYS beta my way into having alphas be my friends lol. Even at my new job!! I literally got yelled at by someone, cried about it to someone else, & was put in another area with the head alpha woman in the factory who is closest with my bosses.. & she instantly took me under her wing & became MY hype person who will go hard for me & always remind me to stop letting others walk all over me or remember my worth!!
Anyways so I have been repeating Charles's logic about the alpha & beta to my family & even giving that as advice to other women at work who are sensitive/ nice like myself. Bc it's genius lol!! Every beta needs an alpha, balance!
Also the craziest part is, this morning before work I watch the episode where Amy and Gina are confronting Charles about his texting habits. & I swear to God I go to work, & in our morning meeting I raised my hand, & my boss instantly seen my face & before I could speak told the room that when we arnt at work to not text each other & to not blow his phone up lol. & I immediately knew it was about me bc I tend to over text so much the running joke at work is that I always "text a book" to people lol. Just like Charles! Over texting & overly needy to others lol. But also overly desperate to still be accepted & willing to confirm to what people say lol. Same with me!! I realize now after being called out in the meeting that I need to chill on texting i geuss? Lmao.
Anyways. I just had to share with others who get it!!
Also sorry for the "book" of a post lol. Idk how to not over-explain myself & over-share!! I'm just a Charles Boyle kinda girl! 💁😂😂😭
PS- idk how to add images to my post in this group? So I'ma comment my image instead lol.
