The Murders in the Rue Morgue

We took the risk. We said YES to the new job or new home. We are using our English, at last. 

Unfortunately, however, we may find that the reactions of others -- in the workplace or in our home -- are MIXED. 

Some people are proud of us and want to celebrate our success with us. Others, we may be surprised to discover, seem to suddenly DISLIKE us. They may appear to distrust us or seem jealous, envious, or more competitive. Support we may have had just a day before - that helped us get where we find ourselves -- may have suddenly disappeared.

If this has happened to you -- you're not alone. AND there are ways to feel better and get the support and care you seek. 

This is something I wish we spoke more about, for I believe it's a topic that is CRUCIALLY important in the world of language learning. 

I'd love to hear what you think!
