What I say: I’m fine

What I mean: the intern that Michael thought looked like Alan Thicke actually looks like Matt Damon??

My absence from Tumblr...

Hey all,

I’ve been off Tumblr for at least 6 months (I think). School (and life) got crazy and now that summer has started, I wanted to announce I’m back!

I wanted to take this opportunity to 1) thank you for 11k (yay!) and 2) answer questions either about “The Office” or I would love to give advice on anything you guys are struggling with right now, this is something I have done on my blog in the past and I would love to hear from you guys and help you sort things out if you need someone to talk to or get advice from. So please don’t hesitate to ask me anything!

So Ive been in this situation for the past year and then I started to realize it is literally season 2 of the office. So I am Pam and I have a bf Roy who is great but we’ve just been together for over 4 years and it’s not really exciting and I’m worried I’m settling. There’s this guy Jim who is great and we are best friends and always hang out together during school. I’ve had a friend visit and meet Jim and she said that he seems really into me. What are your thoughts?

First of all I just want to say I have no idea when you sent me this, but I have been off Tumblr for like 6 months so I’m so sorry if I’m getting back to you super late. Idk if my advice will be relevant now, but I hope it is!

Alright, so here’s what I think. Obviously the writers of “The Office” wrote the show with the intent of having at least two characters who are so obviously in love that the audience can’t stand it. It was one of the reasons all of us kept watching the show...their “will they won’t they” relationship. I think “The Office” shows a lot of sides of love, and a lot of types of love and in some ways it is an accurate depiction of what love is like but in other ways it’s not accurate. If you’re in a committed relationship, you have to ask yourself if you are ready to risk that security and what could be a really good relationship. Are you happy with this person? Would you truly be happier with someone else? Or is it the idea of someone else that’s tempting? Not every “Jim and Pam” scenario is destined to work. Yes, I believe there is such a thing as true love, but it’s hard to know what that looks like. 

Let me know if this helps, or you need me to elaborate!

you know I never found John Krasinski attractive and like 7 episodes into the office God he is The Sexiest Man Alive.

This is true.

“The Office” is leaving Netflix??

Please tell me that this isn’t true...

There’s a lot of beauty in ordinary things. Isn’t that kind of the point?

Me never updating my Tumblr...

Ryan: Thought you checked my Tumblr. Andy: You never update it.

I just feel like this scene omits so much power. The fact that Pam finally took control of her life and stopped just letting things happen around her was a true character development moment. I think a lot of people can learn from her courage.

“I’ve been trying to be more honest lately, and I just need to say a few things… I did the coal walk! Just… I did it! Michael, you couldn’t even do that. Maybe I should be your boss. Wow, I feel really good right now! Why didn’t any of you come to my art show? I invited all of you, and that really sucked. It’s like sometimes some of you act like I don’t even exist. Jim, I called off my wedding because of you. And now we’re not even friends, and things are just really weird between us and that really sucks. You were my best friend before you went to Stamford… and I really miss you. I shouldn’t have been with Roy. And there were a lot of reasons to call off my wedding… but the truth is I didn’t care about any of these reasons until I met you. And now you’re with someone else… and that’s fine. It’s… whatever, that’s not what I’m… I’m not… Okay my feet really hurt. The thing that I’m just trying to say to you, Jim, and to everyone else in the circle, I guess is that I miss having fun with you. Just you, not everyone in the circle. Okay… I’m gonna go walk in the water now. Yeah… it’s a good day.”
