Oct 16, 2017 at 11:41 comment added usr-local-ΕΨΗΕΛΩΝ In general, people engaged into a romantic relationship should never work together. This brings home the office issues and vice versa. Management has failed in the beginning as they stepped into dangerous ground.
Oct 15, 2017 at 8:48 comment added Peter The words I'd use are "mislead" and "pressure", but your words also work. Bottom line is, management is aware of the harm their actions caused, they do have the ability to do something about it, yet nothing has happened for 4.5 months.

Oct 14, 2017 at 16:42 comment added JeffC 2. Lying implies intent which is not proven by the statements made. Lying is stating something that you know is not true. As you've probably experienced, sometimes management estimates incorrectly. Estimating two weeks when it takes two months is not lying, you're probably just really bad at estimating. 3. That's not blackmail... it's not even coercion. At worst it's guilting them into doing what they asked or it may have been an attempt at a warning... consider the consequences if you do this. You are attributing intent which is not clear.

Oct 12, 2017 at 12:45 comment added Daniel @bvoyelr: I would concur with you if the employer would have been honest, but they employed classic delay-tactics instead of solving the problem. And trust me, it is possible to replace somebody in 6 month time - it is just a matter of money and that is obviously more precius to them than human beings
Oct 12, 2017 at 12:30 comment added bvoyelr I'm wary of the beginning of this answer: it feels to me like a case of negative attribution bias. The employer may be blackmailing the OP, but it sounds to me like the employer is in a bind as well, and they're simply stating that the OP is not replaceable right now. In short, ascribing bad motives to the employer is a bar that I don't think has been cleared in this case. That said, the conclusions are still correct: it is a two way street, and the employer is unable to meet OP's needs.
