What is wrong with me right now?
It's Christmas Eve and I don't know why but I feel like just wanting to burst. I feel like no matter how many times I've sent Christmas cards, birthday cards, valentine's cards etc to someone I still have feelings for in order to reconcile for stupid past mistakes, it feels like it just falls on deaf ears and get no response. I miss her sometimes but I don't want to make her uncomfortable like I'm stalking her so I leave her be but there are days when it's hard to not think about her.
I've also not had a number of good days at, the shop has quite a lot of disorganisation and is quite messy and it's frustrating because sometimes we've had to focus on doing deliveries than always cleaning and tidying the shop. I've not been liking coming into work to a place where a lot of things are disorganised. I've got one colleague my assistant manager whose being having a hard time and has been getting stressed and even shouted at another colleague. The new manager is leaving in January which I'm not happy about and worried the next person won't be the same bubbly person as her. I've been offered a couple of times the opportunity to be transferred to another shop where my original former colleagues now work but have found it hard to want to leave after 7 years.

You shouldn't be sending cards of any kind to any ex unless they have specifically expressed that it is okay for you to do that.
That could definitely be perceived as stalkerish behaviour.

I know how difficult this can be, been there myself. Had to let go of someone, but let others seek your attention instead.

Autism, it’s definitely Autism.
1. You don’t intuitively realize that no reply IS a reply and that your contact and communications are unwanted. That’s why they fall on deaf ears and you get no response. The person is not interested in having any communication with you and your persistent sending of cards and things is likely perceived negatively and possibly somewhat stalker-ish by someone who just cannot let things go and accept that the other party wants nothing to do with you. They’re simply far too polite to tell you, or perhaps they fear your reaction if they were to bluntly tell you. Year by year holiday by holiday them not responding IS their response and communication to you to just let it go and knock it off.
2. You fear change and won’t make one even though logically it’s most likely going to be a good change if you’re likely to be happier working with your old crew again at a different location. That’s also pretty autistic.
So, in conclusion, the answer to your query is.. Autism.
