  • I said sometimes when I talk to my mentor, she would not be really warm, like "Suppose it's not proper to talk anything other than business." She said.

    She said she used to be a reporter, I had expected chit-chats over some intern experience of her, sharing, encouragement, maybe some disapproval would be good.

    And she just "Good", "Okay", "Thanks for sharing".

    Now I'd incline to believe that she really treated me as a co-worker. Not all the time emotional-sharing, talking about a proper relationship of lukewarm concerns, private-working life. I am just a new co-worker, it seems normal then.

    It's time to grow up, cut the excessive emotional sharing, back to business.
