I had an Ellie in my life. Her name was Dora and she passed away 12 years ago at the age of 80. She was the first straight person I knew who could have cared less if I was gay, loved me unconditionally. Also, she was just a hoot to be around. I learned a lot from knowing and loving her ...
I am working on not keeping men at arms length. In the past, I haven't known how to get past the have sex first, then get a name, progression of knowing another gay man. I'm figuring it out, slowly, but surely. LJ has helped me with that.
I do have one leasing consultant who is all over the place emotionally. We recently had to have a "come to Jesus" meeting about her behavior and how it affects everyone in the office. I told her if she came in again, was a bitch to the other people and couldn't focus on her work, that she would be asked to go home without pay. Our boss is a woman and suggested this as a solution.
