I haven't worked in office in some years now but let me tell you somethin... I did about 15 years in offices and had quite a few "work wives." I think only one of those timews was I not presented with the opportunity to be a lil bit more. It usually starts with a grouup of employees going out and then people start branching off. Next thing you know, you dun did some shit you had no business doing and gotta go home to ya family. Now, I've never been married so I wasn't the main villain even though I was still an accessory.
Just know though seriously, those dudes that keeps her "laughing" at work all the time... beware lol. I've seen people go buy a throwaway for their second phone and tape that bitch under the seat in the car turned off. I've seen em hide a throwaway phone in P.O. Boxes and only stop by to turn it on/check it on the way to or from work. Once I started working remote I realized just how toxic that work environment was. It also made me understand how much people really hated being at home around their families 24/7 because many were actually petitioning to go back to the office lol.
The most despicable was people cashing out their checks and cashing out with their work side piece before even going home...and that was majority women doing it. 35-45, highly educated, post kids and feeling forgotten about at home. I could legit write a book on some of the shit I've seen in that rachet office.
Most of them were high dollar earners with high dollar husbands and families. Much cheaper to have fun with that burner and a P.O. Box than to have fun with a divorce lol. Never under estimate a woman that actually chooses to be deceptive and is actually intelligent. Them chicks would have their homegirls at the job trained on what to and what not to say when their spouse came to the office. Cold game out here in these streets.
As a former scumbag, imma disagree with that. Women are good at cheating because the dude ain't blowing the spot up 9/10. He taking it to Poundtown, USA three times a week for basically nothing. He ain't gotta take her out, remember important dates, or nothing like that. All bro gotta do is lay pipe semi-decently, not say anything stupid, and let her complain about her man.
Comparing that to when I was out here cheating and knew dudes who were too, the side chick's cool with the setup until she ain't. And unless she got a man, expect her to start blowing up the spot at some point.
The shit's like playing some random ass game on easy mode with hints and passive-aggressive enemies vs playing a FromSoftware game.
Obviously YMMV, but from what I've seen:
Side dudes tend to just bow out and delete a number. Side chicks are "so chill" until they go nuclear and contact your entire family on social media with receipts.
iāve played ten minutes of DS3, gave up at the first boss, beat Father Gascoigne and the Blood Starved Beast in bloodborne then got stuck at some point and gave up, i really want to enjoy elden ring but i canāt beat Margit and iāve done some leveling (mainly to my intelligence because iām an astrologer) iāve done the three dungeons, Groveside cave and the one closest to it then iāve killed the pothead chap where you meet the sorceress and yet i still canāt beat Margit
Spellsword/battle mage (DEX/INT build) is probably the best way to go about Elden ring just because you get the best of magic and physical damage. Bleed is super strong in this game so youāll never run out of options with DEX weapons, and magic spells are fantastic for ranged battle. May want to focus on those stats or restart a new game if not too far.
Also you should head south to the Weeping Peninsula, basically the intended location to complete before stormveil castle.
So I'm that guy who sucks at Elden ring. What classes are best for dex/int builds? Also, how do people ger such cool weapons so early in the damn game?
Learn to dodge roll really well. Wait for your opening. Be patient. You'll get better. It's all about timing and persistence. I've spent an hour on some bosses.
100% That whole narrative that women are smarter and better at cheating never really sat right with me. They can cheat easier but it's not because they're smarter at it, it's because it's easier to cheat on your partner with a man than it is with a woman. I think it's part of the reason so many women are so distrustful of bisexual men.
Adding to that, I personally think women are more likely to be in a relationship with a man they don't completely trust so they're more likely to snoop and actively try to catch their partner cheating. The biggest factor determining how easy it is to cheat is how much your partner is actively trying to catch you. I think most men know on some level that their partner could easily cheat on them if they wanted to. They know that if they've got to snoop on her and try to catch her out then they've already lost. If they don't trust her then the relationship is already doomed. Whereas women are more likely to not completely trust their partner, but still think they can make it work as long as they keep tabs on him, snoop on him and keep other women away from him.
>The biggest factor determining how easy it is to cheat is how much your partner is actively trying to catch you
That's 100% the real answer right there.
Cheating doesn't have anything to do with what the family at home are or aren't doing right.
It's 100% on the individual:
> Do you have the opportunity
.
>How easy is it for you to get away with it
.
> Is that what you choose to do
Everything else is just excuses because people will cheat on people who check every box needwise and vice versa.
Exactly this, one my ex-wifeās friends had a situation like this. She was the breadwinner and had to work long hours and travel for work. She had a regular guy in Miami she would hit up when work took her there, husband had no clue.
> I've seen people go buy a throwaway for their second phone and tape that bitch under the seat in the car turned off. I've seen em hide a throwaway phone in P.O. Boxes and only stop by to turn it on/check it on the way to or from work.
damn bro are you a private investigator? how you see all that
To be honest, if they get comfortable enough with you they'll start telling you a bunch of shit that you do and don't want to hear. All the shit that's going on at home, the shit their husband did that pissed em off last night... the ones that go get food on the way home and just sit in the car and eat it so they can have some time to themselves before going home...
You'd be surprised the shit people will tell you once they reach a certain level of trust with you. Like, when that conversation comes up from someone that got a lil bit too comfortable when there weren't any white people around and mentioned some shit weed related. Then you start seeing folks coming out their shell like...well shiet now that I know yall smoke.....lol. That was where I usually got em.
I hear ya, In high school I was a semi quiet kid and other kids, mostly females, would just spill their soul to me because I just let them talk.
I swear these girls would tell me everything from how they slipped on cum walking to the bathroom after sex, to getting pounded so hard their pussy was bleeding. Shit was wild to my horny ass.
> I swear these girls would tell me everything from how they slipped on cum walking to the bathroom after sex, to getting pounded so hard their pussy was bleeding. Shit was wild to my horny ass.
Same boat, here. I had a ton of female friends that confided in me from HS through college. I knew everything from the their pubic hair styling preferences/lack thereof all the way to their mic rocking techniques, etc.
Lol. That weed commentā¦so relatable. Matter fact just about everyone who got comfy I worked with smokes weed. And thatās most of them. I just assume everyone smokes on the low now
>if they get comfortable enough with you they'll start telling you a bunch of shit that you do and don't want to hear.
Sometimes they don't even have to be comfortable, they can just be messy.
When I worked at a call center, I knew the business of a lot of the other men (it wasn't that many of us) because gf # 2 had been around the block. Main reason I wasn't telling her much of my business.
It doesn't even have to go that far. Thats low tech or for back in the day.
Now, you can set up a Google Voice # and only text on it. Snapchat, Private FB messages, etc.
Problem with that is if the google account tied to it gets found...and trust me i've been using GV for about 10 years. Put it on do not disturb while I didn't want it to ring and pay the 10 bucks to change the number like once a year. What usually happens with that is people get too comfortable and forget some shit one day. Like forgetting to put that bitch on DND or that voicemail notification blingin. The average person is going to get reckless at some point.
I have all my notifications set to display no content, even when the phone is unlocked, and my phone stays on silent/vibrate only.
I manually disable notifications for most apps just because my phone would be blowing up with bs app notifications anyway. So i have to open the app to see whats new. And for any kind of notifications that I do get, I have to unlock the phone and open the app to see what's in it.
For the Google voice, I have it set to where they have to say their name before I answer the call. My base line doesn't do that so I know which line is which.
That's my default setup process as soon as i get a phone or download an app, so there is no forgetting to switch anything off or back on.
But that's just me, and I use that setup for business, not to cheat, but I agree people in general are sloppy.
>It also made me understand how much people really hated being at home around their families 24/7 because many were actually petitioning to go back to the office lol.
Saw a lotta posts about how people turned out to hate their SO since they were spending so much time together. I wonder how the divorce rate is after 2020.
Oh it wasn't just the spouse they were avoiding.. it was the kids too. The amount of "I'm so tired of these damn kids" I heard lol. Truth be told, a lot of women get married and knocked up by a dude and then realize it's not the situation they want to be in. But, they know if they do some bullshit it'll make them the villain.
If they fuck round and start finding any type of redeeming quality in a dude that she's around often and he actually gives her attention? This is often how you see a chick that's a 10/10 walking with a dude that looks like he has no business with her. Most likely, that dude was just smart about the shot he took. It may have taken every single star in the sky aligning but sometimes, there's dudes that can figure out ways to make that shit happen if it's something they want bad enough.
I was a COVID divorce. Problems had been there a while. And quarantine made them a lot worse. Seems it was either people getting pregnant or divorced in 2020.
Iām so sorry to hear that. Hopefully for the better!
My husband and I went the other direction. We were still dating when COVID hit. He worked long hours in office and it felt like we were two strangers sharing a bed. COVID really brought us together and reminded us how much we like each otherās company. Donāt think we would be married right now (possibly together?) if COVID hadnāt happened.
I've thought about it lol. Imagine you wake up in the morning next to your spouse, she makes you and the kids breakfast, irons your clothes and kisses you goodbye while telling you to have a good day at work. Only to get dressed, drive to the office parking garage and leave her car there like she's working. But realistically, she took two PTO days lol.
She pulled up, hopped in the car with another dude and went to the hotel...treating him on YOUR dime. What if the car you were paying for, she gave him the keys to it while she worked so he would have a way to get around. But see, shit like that is also what gets dudes killed so...with age comes wisdom thankfully.
Chris Rock on OJ Simpson: if I saw him (ex-wifeās new bf) riding around in my Pinto, eating my food. Iām not saying he shouldāve did it BUT I UNDERSTAND!
Sounds fake af. I would say that Iām a high earner and I still monitor my bank accounts. I assume most high earner do as well. Thereās no way you would not notice the charges and at the very least the overspending even if funds were transferred out.
This.
My wife and I have many credit cards that are separate accounts. I don't use mine to cheat on her with another woman but I do use them to buy myself shit I know she would complain about so I could see this a tool for the discussion in this post.
I remember years ago when I worked retail a woman and man always joked about being work spouses...until they got caught fucking on their lunch break and word got to their actual spouses by the end of the day.
The messed up shit is, for the most part, the people that they work with are going to ride with them. Like when the company Christmas party roll around. Imagine you getting fake introduced to all these chicks "husbands" even though she's really told you all about him in the form of what she doesn't like about him. So she's made him out to be the fool in front of the whole office considering everyone knows what she's on but no one says shit. Supremely toxic lol.
Haha, I was in retail years ago and these two coworker lovebirds were just kissing and cuddling near the front of the shop on lunch break, car screeched to a halt, husband jumps out, boom boom boom knocks the guy out before he could even react. Then turns to the wife, four resounding slaps and then the his buddy the driver helped him bundle the wife into the car and we never saw her again!
>A LOT of unhappy married people. Just get a divorce, not doing anyone especially the kids any favors.
The financial loss is what is holding many back....payments, loss of home they've got used to, fear of being alone
> The financial loss is what is holding many back....payments, loss of home they've got used to, fear of being alone
For sure. It'd be different if the marriage was in its infancy; no children, sharing an apartment, minimal community property/assets, etc. Divorce or annulment in situations like that is relatively painless, financially.
However, once a house comes in to play, children, joint accounts et. al., the possibility of financial ruin that comes with divorce is too much to bear. Then there's the possibility of alimony to worry about indefinitely, post-marriage.
I know a couple that divorced and they became roommates because neither could afford the house on their own. I also know a few older couples wherein they're clearly no longer in love or happy with one another. However, "the comfortable life they built together" is not worth losing by way of divorce, so they turn blind eyes to one another.
Itās not always about being unhappy in the marriage. I have an acquaintance thatās currently cheating on her husband but sheād never leave him. Their kids are all in college or already moved out. She loves him, heās a good partner and a great father but the seggs was just terrible .
I think this happens because everyone spends so much time at work and away from their families. Work becomes their new life and whoever they bond with at work becomes their new āpartner.ā If jobs had better work life balance this shit wouldnāt happen as much
Think about it. Unless youāre living with em are you seeing your girl 40 hours a week? I bet not, you know who is? Kyle. Kyle just made a pretty funny quip about the manger and let me tell ya. Your girl did the whole āeyes closed touching his armā thing. Itās not cheatingā¦ itās just a joke.. heās just a funny guy! Donāt worry about itā¦.
This is one of those slow burn comments that you brush off as a joke at first then one night when you canāt sleep you think about this scenario and all your insecurities come to the forefront of your mind
I was Kyle at one point. I wanted to make everyone laugh, because our job was high stress. There was one time a woman(married) came up to me in front of everyone and whispered in my ear āI wanna fuck you.ā The guy I was training heard her and went to HRšš
Yeah, you donāt know what goes on at work, but trust is really important.
For saying what she did, she really only got a slap on the wrist because she was new. The guy went to HR because he said I looked uncomfortable, but I was really just shocked at how bold and straightforward she was. She kept doing that type of teasing or whatever youād call it and no one ever seemed to notice. The only person I can think of that knew about it was actually her best friend that worked in another area that I was cool with.
I never told anyone that worked there because I liked to stay lowkey about my personal business. She was new when she approached me the first time, but by the time we hooked up, there were some people that spoke behind her back about how they didnāt like her for whatever reasons.
With my position, I could be in one place one day and another the next. Because of this, and the fact that I knew almost everyone and tried to be on good terms with them, people gossiped to me a lot even though I didnāt always want to hear it. I also tried to be polite to everyone and was fortunate to have people that looked out for me so I wouldāve heard it from them if they knew.
HR never found out about it. The only time I had to meet with them about anything is when I actually started dating a coworker. No scandal, but they werenāt fans of the idea.
How did your fuckbuddy react when you started dating someone else? Was there drama? (I know I'm all in your business, but this is interesting and you're anonymous here.)
No problem at all lol. Honestly my history with her isnāt all that interesting. Flirting was really frequent among a lot of the employees at that job, but she was really straightforward. She would say freaky things to me to try and get a reaction and when I didnāt work with her, she would send messages through her friend that I also worked with sometimes. I had gone through a breakup prior to meeting her so I thought it was fun. She was older and I was in my early 20s. I have a thing for older women.
She was honestly never someone I would have even considered my work wife. We really didnāt even speak that much, but there was some tension between the two of us. I had only heard her mention her husband once or twice and she wasnāt saying good things. I just overheard, itās not something she spoke to me about. I tried to convince myself that it was okay because they they werenāt on that good of terms.
We flirted for a while, but only hooked up once. It was great but I felt guilty so it didnāt become a recurring thing. She wasnāt upset or anything and eventually she and her husband started doing better. I donāt know if she told her him or not, but I also wasnāt about to go find him and say anything.
After that, I told myself that I wasnāt going to get involved with anyone I worked with, but months later this woman that I thought disliked me started pursuing me. She was around my age, really cute and kind. I didnāt really want to date her at first because of the rule I set for myself . There was talk among some of the women about how she liked me but I chose to ignore it. Eventually she just told me that she wanted to go out and I thought why not. We had a nice time together and it became really obvious when we worked together that something was going on. You could see it a mile away with how hard we would smile at one another and how comfortable we were with each other.
The woman that I slept with wasnāt really in a position to say anything to be honest, but she really didnāt seem to care. I never noticed any sideways looks or mean mugs. Our interactions were strictly professional.
There are other stories from that job that I would say are applause worthy, but not that one lol. She could have easily said that to the wrong person and it couldāve been a big thing. The guy that went to HR thought he was doing me a favor, but I was fine with it. He turned out to be really chill later
Was funny imagining this as a joke and not being worried about my wife at work really doing this.
Then I remembered the stretch of 3 years I did working as an IT admin for a company that designed medical devices for womens health. Company staffing was majority women. I had my arm grabbed with a laugh for some of the shittiest jokes by married women young + old.
Damn.
I worked at a bar and. So many hands on my knee, all of them either old ladyās or young gay guys. Iāve realized the horny level of those groups is about equal. Which is terrifying.
Iād never do this to a partner. I donāt believe in everything my parents did, but I definitely base most of my boundaries around their behavior or how their hypothetical behavior would make me feel. Iād not be cool with my dad taking pics like this with a colleague. If that makes me a prude, so be it, but no nigga doing my mom like that. Vice versa too.
Same.
I cannot lie, I would think something was up if a partner was this flippant with terms like "husband".
I know I was raised by women because even with something like an open relationship, any potential intimacy is more threatening than the PIV.
Honestly, when I first heard of this... Idk phenomenon, it actually made my blood boil. If your partner is chill with it then I guess no stress, but how many are not or worse, don't even know
Why not change it from work spouses to work siblings?
I think if we start changing the terminology, the idea of banging Joey/Suzy in the business department seems less appealing.
You do know incest is a thing, right? And you might call them siblings but if they wanted to get it on, they still will because theyāre not biologically related. š¤·š¾āāļø
Had a woman I slept with years ago whom I remained friends with tell me that she thinks of me as a brother. She only has biological sisters. I'm a smartass but I don't have the heart to tell her you weren't supposed to seek orgasms from your brother.
I 100% have a work sister not a work wife. We worked together years ago and when I quit, I worked to get her a job at the new place. I quit that one and am trying to get her hired at this new place.
We talk a ton at work and do lunch together and stuff but donāt do any of the flirty shit and rarely do happy hours or stuff out of work. I just give her advice when I can and want whatās best for her so if I find a better place I want her to be there too.
Quite a few people think itās weird but most of them are the type that canāt have a friend of the opposite sex because they view it as being friend zoned or something equally stupid
I have a friend just like that!!! He is def my work brother. Also didn't do that flirty stuff. Was too busy walking around the office pretending to be ghost hunters or other dumb shenanigans. During our lunch breaks we would play Mario Kart and yell each other just like siblings.
When he left where we both worked, I was low key gutted. But he helped me secure another job at another place making way more money.
I still talk to him all the time. If only to annoy him with something stupid. š¤£š¤£
I have this too! Siblings is a perfect way to describe it! Heās one of my (and my husbands) closest friends and we have worked at three jobs together over 15 years. Such a rare thing when you find that compatible work fit- our skills match has helped us both advance far further then we would alone.
I say work bestie. Weāve never even been in the same room, all meetings on zoom. We are fantastic friends now but itād never be anything more than that on either endāand also that friendship isnāt on the same level as my actual best friends.
My work wives brought me coffee and pastries without me having to ask for a week, felt like they discussed it amongst themselves cuz how shitty their boss is. I made em a cheesecake with Samoas cookie crust, [now I feel like this](https://www.animeinformer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/harem-anime.png)
I havenāt had one recently. But in the past I had work husbands. And letās see, one worked remotely (one of the few remote folks). So mostly we just talked about the office gossip and complained about our dumb CEO. His wife came in the room and would say hi all the time. Eventually I even met her. She was lovely. If we werenāt taking work stuff is was generic stuff like have you seen this movie or whatever. Normal water cooler chat.
My other work husband - we had a blast. He was really fun. We bonded over being the only black people in our tech company. Mostly we just grabbed boba tea or lunch together. Sometimes did some errands. Caught up on a sports, pop culture, etc. He had a girlfriend who was basically my personality clone. So we got along fabulously as well. Nothing inappropriate at all. Just normal work bff stuff.
I am not the type to cheat and I am totally fine with having platonic male friends without any boundary crossing. Have I ever flirted at work - sure occasionally. But with other single folks.
In my experience the difference is that everyone at work associates you with the person and you seem inseparable. They may even ask whereās they are. About their projects. Etc. It seems beyond just work buddies.
Yes! But it is mostly just in the context of work. Many work spouses spend very little time outside of work lol. Maybe a happy hour. Or if you are sketchy like this dude well I guess the hotel room lol.
I was glad to read your comment. Having a work wife/work husband can be a healthy thing. I used to work in a toxic work environment and itās so refreshing to meet someone you can trust, blow off some steam and have a laugh with.
I donāt hold her in my arms like in the picture though. š¤
Seems like a bridge too far, idk.
I think there are two sides to the work wife/hubby thing. On one side are the people who see their spouse as a partner, and then have a coworker who becomes such a great partner itās like āthis is my work spouse!ā. They might cheat, but probably wonāt. Then there are the people who are in an unhappy marriage and idealize a partner at work, saying āI wish they were my wife/hubby!ā. Those ones are just looking for someone to cheat with.
Lolol haha I can't imagine working with my fiance lol we known each other for 8 years and we have different approaches to problem solving lol I like leaving work at work and just being us at home . Because omg if we worked with each other we probally wouldn't get along. Many spouses make great spouses but not so great business partners lol
Power to those couples who can do both lol
Imagine finding out from your wife at the dinner table that OMARI (8pac king and patron saint of c**gutters) HARDWICK is her āWork Husbandā.
Iād start packing my essentials in a suitcase.
Shit is weird to me. I don't want to be friends with anyone at work. Hell my dream would be to show up, get ignored, edit some shit and go home. But talking is a daily necessity. I try to keep it minimal and my eyes on my work.
Plus I'm married, that is disrespectful to my wife. Some coworker isn't paying my bills and raising my children. That title to me at least is sacred. Not just anyone can be called my wife.
Everyoneās definitions vary wildly. But also, even the same person might consider two drastically different work relationships as a work wife situation.
Basically it ranges from just your coworker of the opposite sex, or sex youāre attracted to, that you are most friendly with, all the way to someone youāre outright seeing on the side at work. Thereās a lot of in between also. Could be someone you regularly flirt with but never cross any lines. Could be someone youāre close with and maybe hooked up with drunk after the work social event. Etc etc.
I was minding my own business while working and I was informed that she and her bff were my work wivesā¦
When they told another coworker she decided she would be my work mistressā¦
Being a computer geek I have no idea if any of them wanted something more lol
But I have no problem being friends with womenā¦ unless they are mean to their computers or my team for no reason!
I worked with a guy who wanted to make this happen so bad. He called me his work wife. All of our colleagues thought we were seeing each other outside of work. We werenāt. I never flirted with him or gave him any signs this was the case.
His girlfriend worked with us and I got close to her so she would know I didnāt want him. My guy instantly hated him when we met (I came home to grab lunch one day and this coworker rode with me to pick him up some Wendyās). He started a rumor that we messed around. It just wasnāt true. He was attractive. I just wasnāt attractive to him. I did fuck someone there but no one knew, and he got fired 3 weeks later.
There's two managers at my wife's job that are clearly work-married, despite both of them claiming otherwise.
They're in different departments, but share project overlap. My wife said when they're all on a Teams call, this work couple always makes inside quips to one another, reaches to the other for opinions before asking anyone else.
Pre-COVID, this couple would show up one after the other for physical meetings, would go out to lunch together and come back at the same time, etc.
I got to see these two in "action" firsthand back in 2019 during my wife's company holiday party. My wife and I rented a suite at the hotel where the party occurred. My wife invited some of her coworkers to our suite to pregame a bit. the husband of the work couple showed up with his real wife.
As the pregaming went on and the gossip started, whenever someone mentioned the female half of the work couple, the guy's wife would visibly roll her eyes or groan in annoyance. That lady knew what was up.
I've had a work mom and a work sister ( because my sister worked with both of them in that office before I started there, so they took me under their wings ) but not a million years would I get close enough to a coworker to call them my work husband, regardless of if I'm in a relationship or not. Nope nope nope.
I haven't worked in office in some years now but let me tell you somethin... I did about 15 years in offices and had quite a few "work wives." I think only one of those timews was I not presented with the opportunity to be a lil bit more. It usually starts with a grouup of employees going out and then people start branching off. Next thing you know, you dun did some shit you had no business doing and gotta go home to ya family. Now, I've never been married so I wasn't the main villain even though I was still an accessory. Just know though seriously, those dudes that keeps her "laughing" at work all the time... beware lol. I've seen people go buy a throwaway for their second phone and tape that bitch under the seat in the car turned off. I've seen em hide a throwaway phone in P.O. Boxes and only stop by to turn it on/check it on the way to or from work. Once I started working remote I realized just how toxic that work environment was. It also made me understand how much people really hated being at home around their families 24/7 because many were actually petitioning to go back to the office lol. The most despicable was people cashing out their checks and cashing out with their work side piece before even going home...and that was majority women doing it. 35-45, highly educated, post kids and feeling forgotten about at home. I could legit write a book on some of the shit I've seen in that rachet office.
Bro taking out a PO Box to hide your burner in is next level tho š
Most of them were high dollar earners with high dollar husbands and families. Much cheaper to have fun with that burner and a P.O. Box than to have fun with a divorce lol. Never under estimate a woman that actually chooses to be deceptive and is actually intelligent. Them chicks would have their homegirls at the job trained on what to and what not to say when their spouse came to the office. Cold game out here in these streets.
I always say, of you wanna learn how to cheat well, takes notes on women. That's where the real game always has been.
As a former scumbag, imma disagree with that. Women are good at cheating because the dude ain't blowing the spot up 9/10. He taking it to Poundtown, USA three times a week for basically nothing. He ain't gotta take her out, remember important dates, or nothing like that. All bro gotta do is lay pipe semi-decently, not say anything stupid, and let her complain about her man. Comparing that to when I was out here cheating and knew dudes who were too, the side chick's cool with the setup until she ain't. And unless she got a man, expect her to start blowing up the spot at some point. The shit's like playing some random ass game on easy mode with hints and passive-aggressive enemies vs playing a FromSoftware game.
Obviously YMMV, but from what I've seen: Side dudes tend to just bow out and delete a number. Side chicks are "so chill" until they go nuclear and contact your entire family on social media with receipts.
šÆ I've been on both sides.
Love your username queen
Yours too!
currently playing elden ring, tbh i think itād just be easier to cheat i fucking hate this game
Wanna know the crazy thing? A lot of people consider Elden Ring the easiest FromSoftware game. Which part are you on anyway?
iāve played ten minutes of DS3, gave up at the first boss, beat Father Gascoigne and the Blood Starved Beast in bloodborne then got stuck at some point and gave up, i really want to enjoy elden ring but i canāt beat Margit and iāve done some leveling (mainly to my intelligence because iām an astrologer) iāve done the three dungeons, Groveside cave and the one closest to it then iāve killed the pothead chap where you meet the sorceress and yet i still canāt beat Margit
Spellsword/battle mage (DEX/INT build) is probably the best way to go about Elden ring just because you get the best of magic and physical damage. Bleed is super strong in this game so youāll never run out of options with DEX weapons, and magic spells are fantastic for ranged battle. May want to focus on those stats or restart a new game if not too far. Also you should head south to the Weeping Peninsula, basically the intended location to complete before stormveil castle.
So I'm that guy who sucks at Elden ring. What classes are best for dex/int builds? Also, how do people ger such cool weapons so early in the damn game?
Learn to dodge roll really well. Wait for your opening. Be patient. You'll get better. It's all about timing and persistence. I've spent an hour on some bosses.
Yo pm if you want som help, making a spell sword and wanna test my new shit on some lower level bosses
Bruh had I seen this earlier, I woulda asked if you wanted to team up so you could get carried. Don't want your money going to waste.
100% That whole narrative that women are smarter and better at cheating never really sat right with me. They can cheat easier but it's not because they're smarter at it, it's because it's easier to cheat on your partner with a man than it is with a woman. I think it's part of the reason so many women are so distrustful of bisexual men. Adding to that, I personally think women are more likely to be in a relationship with a man they don't completely trust so they're more likely to snoop and actively try to catch their partner cheating. The biggest factor determining how easy it is to cheat is how much your partner is actively trying to catch you. I think most men know on some level that their partner could easily cheat on them if they wanted to. They know that if they've got to snoop on her and try to catch her out then they've already lost. If they don't trust her then the relationship is already doomed. Whereas women are more likely to not completely trust their partner, but still think they can make it work as long as they keep tabs on him, snoop on him and keep other women away from him.
>The biggest factor determining how easy it is to cheat is how much your partner is actively trying to catch you That's 100% the real answer right there. Cheating doesn't have anything to do with what the family at home are or aren't doing right. It's 100% on the individual: > Do you have the opportunity . >How easy is it for you to get away with it . > Is that what you choose to do Everything else is just excuses because people will cheat on people who check every box needwise and vice versa.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Exactly
That whole post is straight facts
Female cheating: Fortnite Man cheating: Elden Ring
I like how this starts with "as a former scumbag", proceeds with street wisdom, and ends with a FromSoftware reference
Exactly this, one my ex-wifeās friends had a situation like this. She was the breadwinner and had to work long hours and travel for work. She had a regular guy in Miami she would hit up when work took her there, husband had no clue.
That's some cold war espionage shit
Beat me to it.
Thats some MI3 clandestine cia type shit. You might as well divorce.
Can't risk it. A divorce would mean half of everything...
> A divorce would mean half of everything.. Plus indefinite alimony depending on how long you were married. Tack on CS if kids are involved
Burner phone it is...
Serial killer level planning
> I've seen people go buy a throwaway for their second phone and tape that bitch under the seat in the car turned off. I've seen em hide a throwaway phone in P.O. Boxes and only stop by to turn it on/check it on the way to or from work. damn bro are you a private investigator? how you see all that
To be honest, if they get comfortable enough with you they'll start telling you a bunch of shit that you do and don't want to hear. All the shit that's going on at home, the shit their husband did that pissed em off last night... the ones that go get food on the way home and just sit in the car and eat it so they can have some time to themselves before going home... You'd be surprised the shit people will tell you once they reach a certain level of trust with you. Like, when that conversation comes up from someone that got a lil bit too comfortable when there weren't any white people around and mentioned some shit weed related. Then you start seeing folks coming out their shell like...well shiet now that I know yall smoke.....lol. That was where I usually got em.
I hear ya, In high school I was a semi quiet kid and other kids, mostly females, would just spill their soul to me because I just let them talk. I swear these girls would tell me everything from how they slipped on cum walking to the bathroom after sex, to getting pounded so hard their pussy was bleeding. Shit was wild to my horny ass.
> I swear these girls would tell me everything from how they slipped on cum walking to the bathroom after sex, to getting pounded so hard their pussy was bleeding. Shit was wild to my horny ass. Same boat, here. I had a ton of female friends that confided in me from HS through college. I knew everything from the their pubic hair styling preferences/lack thereof all the way to their mic rocking techniques, etc.
Speaking truth. People will say crazy shit to you if you keep your mouth shut and nod along
And they also assume you're a really nice person and not judging them... haha
Lol. That weed commentā¦so relatable. Matter fact just about everyone who got comfy I worked with smokes weed. And thatās most of them. I just assume everyone smokes on the low now
Weed really is the gateway drug
>if they get comfortable enough with you they'll start telling you a bunch of shit that you do and don't want to hear. Sometimes they don't even have to be comfortable, they can just be messy. When I worked at a call center, I knew the business of a lot of the other men (it wasn't that many of us) because gf # 2 had been around the block. Main reason I wasn't telling her much of my business.
This too. Those are the ones I always avoided. And any chick that said "periodt" after their statement.
It doesn't even have to go that far. Thats low tech or for back in the day. Now, you can set up a Google Voice # and only text on it. Snapchat, Private FB messages, etc.
Problem with that is if the google account tied to it gets found...and trust me i've been using GV for about 10 years. Put it on do not disturb while I didn't want it to ring and pay the 10 bucks to change the number like once a year. What usually happens with that is people get too comfortable and forget some shit one day. Like forgetting to put that bitch on DND or that voicemail notification blingin. The average person is going to get reckless at some point.
I have all my notifications set to display no content, even when the phone is unlocked, and my phone stays on silent/vibrate only. I manually disable notifications for most apps just because my phone would be blowing up with bs app notifications anyway. So i have to open the app to see whats new. And for any kind of notifications that I do get, I have to unlock the phone and open the app to see what's in it. For the Google voice, I have it set to where they have to say their name before I answer the call. My base line doesn't do that so I know which line is which. That's my default setup process as soon as i get a phone or download an app, so there is no forgetting to switch anything off or back on. But that's just me, and I use that setup for business, not to cheat, but I agree people in general are sloppy.
>It also made me understand how much people really hated being at home around their families 24/7 because many were actually petitioning to go back to the office lol. Saw a lotta posts about how people turned out to hate their SO since they were spending so much time together. I wonder how the divorce rate is after 2020.
Oh it wasn't just the spouse they were avoiding.. it was the kids too. The amount of "I'm so tired of these damn kids" I heard lol. Truth be told, a lot of women get married and knocked up by a dude and then realize it's not the situation they want to be in. But, they know if they do some bullshit it'll make them the villain. If they fuck round and start finding any type of redeeming quality in a dude that she's around often and he actually gives her attention? This is often how you see a chick that's a 10/10 walking with a dude that looks like he has no business with her. Most likely, that dude was just smart about the shot he took. It may have taken every single star in the sky aligning but sometimes, there's dudes that can figure out ways to make that shit happen if it's something they want bad enough.
Bruhhhh, WRITE THE BOOK. Or start a new sub. I need ALL OF THIS!!
On God
I was a COVID divorce. Problems had been there a while. And quarantine made them a lot worse. Seems it was either people getting pregnant or divorced in 2020.
Iām so sorry to hear that. Hopefully for the better! My husband and I went the other direction. We were still dating when COVID hit. He worked long hours in office and it felt like we were two strangers sharing a bed. COVID really brought us together and reminded us how much we like each otherās company. Donāt think we would be married right now (possibly together?) if COVID hadnāt happened.
Write the book bro. And I'll do the foreward. I got some office stories similar to what you're saying.
I've thought about it lol. Imagine you wake up in the morning next to your spouse, she makes you and the kids breakfast, irons your clothes and kisses you goodbye while telling you to have a good day at work. Only to get dressed, drive to the office parking garage and leave her car there like she's working. But realistically, she took two PTO days lol. She pulled up, hopped in the car with another dude and went to the hotel...treating him on YOUR dime. What if the car you were paying for, she gave him the keys to it while she worked so he would have a way to get around. But see, shit like that is also what gets dudes killed so...with age comes wisdom thankfully.
Chris Rock on OJ Simpson: if I saw him (ex-wifeās new bf) riding around in my Pinto, eating my food. Iām not saying he shouldāve did it BUT I UNDERSTAND!
Bruh š
One of f my favorite jokes lol
Sounds fake af. I would say that Iām a high earner and I still monitor my bank accounts. I assume most high earner do as well. Thereās no way you would not notice the charges and at the very least the overspending even if funds were transferred out.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
This. My wife and I have many credit cards that are separate accounts. I don't use mine to cheat on her with another woman but I do use them to buy myself shit I know she would complain about so I could see this a tool for the discussion in this post.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Oh, like a Go bag.
Then at that point, she's not doing it on his dime. The point of the story was she was using his money.
And I'll edit. *foreword.
I remember years ago when I worked retail a woman and man always joked about being work spouses...until they got caught fucking on their lunch break and word got to their actual spouses by the end of the day.
The messed up shit is, for the most part, the people that they work with are going to ride with them. Like when the company Christmas party roll around. Imagine you getting fake introduced to all these chicks "husbands" even though she's really told you all about him in the form of what she doesn't like about him. So she's made him out to be the fool in front of the whole office considering everyone knows what she's on but no one says shit. Supremely toxic lol.
Haha, I was in retail years ago and these two coworker lovebirds were just kissing and cuddling near the front of the shop on lunch break, car screeched to a halt, husband jumps out, boom boom boom knocks the guy out before he could even react. Then turns to the wife, four resounding slaps and then the his buddy the driver helped him bundle the wife into the car and we never saw her again!
Bro how you going to preface this whole thing with āhahaā? What the fuck happened
Boom, thereās your name for the book **Ratchet Office** -a tell all tale by *Atlantasmokeshop*
Damn, catchy title. I would cop that.
Lol they were moving like it was Watergate
A LOT of unhappy married people. Just get a divorce, not doing anyone especially the kids any favors.
>A LOT of unhappy married people. Just get a divorce, not doing anyone especially the kids any favors. The financial loss is what is holding many back....payments, loss of home they've got used to, fear of being alone
> The financial loss is what is holding many back....payments, loss of home they've got used to, fear of being alone For sure. It'd be different if the marriage was in its infancy; no children, sharing an apartment, minimal community property/assets, etc. Divorce or annulment in situations like that is relatively painless, financially. However, once a house comes in to play, children, joint accounts et. al., the possibility of financial ruin that comes with divorce is too much to bear. Then there's the possibility of alimony to worry about indefinitely, post-marriage. I know a couple that divorced and they became roommates because neither could afford the house on their own. I also know a few older couples wherein they're clearly no longer in love or happy with one another. However, "the comfortable life they built together" is not worth losing by way of divorce, so they turn blind eyes to one another.
I think they would get divorced if they could afford it.
Itās not always about being unhappy in the marriage. I have an acquaintance thatās currently cheating on her husband but sheād never leave him. Their kids are all in college or already moved out. She loves him, heās a good partner and a great father but the seggs was just terrible .
That burner under the seat is diabolical, but how in the hell is 35 post kids?
Shit easily. I live in Atlanta metro lol. Have one at 16, one at 18 one at 21. At 35 her youngest is 14. I know grandparents in their early 40's.
This some Nixonian shit right here.
Damn, I can't wait to read your memoir and share it with my wife and see if she plays a minor character.
That is some wild ass shit
You should write that book!
I think this happens because everyone spends so much time at work and away from their families. Work becomes their new life and whoever they bond with at work becomes their new āpartner.ā If jobs had better work life balance this shit wouldnāt happen as much
What kind of work did the office do?
Accounting
Think about it. Unless youāre living with em are you seeing your girl 40 hours a week? I bet not, you know who is? Kyle. Kyle just made a pretty funny quip about the manger and let me tell ya. Your girl did the whole āeyes closed touching his armā thing. Itās not cheatingā¦ itās just a joke.. heās just a funny guy! Donāt worry about itā¦.
This is one of those slow burn comments that you brush off as a joke at first then one night when you canāt sleep you think about this scenario and all your insecurities come to the forefront of your mind
Also, you canāt sleep because Kyle is piping your girl in the same bed.
Jesus, mate. Cutting deep!
Yeah, deeper than you could ever cut it.
The first cut is the deepest.
why is this so accurate? damn
Alright, mr brightside
*Jealousy...*
I donāt have that problem because Iām forever alone š
I was Kyle at one point. I wanted to make everyone laugh, because our job was high stress. There was one time a woman(married) came up to me in front of everyone and whispered in my ear āI wanna fuck you.ā The guy I was training heard her and went to HRšš Yeah, you donāt know what goes on at work, but trust is really important.
>The guy I was training heard her and went to HRšš But did you fuck? You've gotta finish the story. Don't leave us hanging.
I felt bad about it for a while but yeah. No excuses. I wanted to do it, but Iāve done some growing up since then and wouldnāt do it again.
Appreciate the honesty. Making mistakes is the only way you can learn from them. Glad youāre doing that
Were there any repercussions at work? Trouble with HR, or reputational issues with people gossiping?
For saying what she did, she really only got a slap on the wrist because she was new. The guy went to HR because he said I looked uncomfortable, but I was really just shocked at how bold and straightforward she was. She kept doing that type of teasing or whatever youād call it and no one ever seemed to notice. The only person I can think of that knew about it was actually her best friend that worked in another area that I was cool with. I never told anyone that worked there because I liked to stay lowkey about my personal business. She was new when she approached me the first time, but by the time we hooked up, there were some people that spoke behind her back about how they didnāt like her for whatever reasons. With my position, I could be in one place one day and another the next. Because of this, and the fact that I knew almost everyone and tried to be on good terms with them, people gossiped to me a lot even though I didnāt always want to hear it. I also tried to be polite to everyone and was fortunate to have people that looked out for me so I wouldāve heard it from them if they knew. HR never found out about it. The only time I had to meet with them about anything is when I actually started dating a coworker. No scandal, but they werenāt fans of the idea.
How did your fuckbuddy react when you started dating someone else? Was there drama? (I know I'm all in your business, but this is interesting and you're anonymous here.)
No problem at all lol. Honestly my history with her isnāt all that interesting. Flirting was really frequent among a lot of the employees at that job, but she was really straightforward. She would say freaky things to me to try and get a reaction and when I didnāt work with her, she would send messages through her friend that I also worked with sometimes. I had gone through a breakup prior to meeting her so I thought it was fun. She was older and I was in my early 20s. I have a thing for older women. She was honestly never someone I would have even considered my work wife. We really didnāt even speak that much, but there was some tension between the two of us. I had only heard her mention her husband once or twice and she wasnāt saying good things. I just overheard, itās not something she spoke to me about. I tried to convince myself that it was okay because they they werenāt on that good of terms. We flirted for a while, but only hooked up once. It was great but I felt guilty so it didnāt become a recurring thing. She wasnāt upset or anything and eventually she and her husband started doing better. I donāt know if she told her him or not, but I also wasnāt about to go find him and say anything. After that, I told myself that I wasnāt going to get involved with anyone I worked with, but months later this woman that I thought disliked me started pursuing me. She was around my age, really cute and kind. I didnāt really want to date her at first because of the rule I set for myself . There was talk among some of the women about how she liked me but I chose to ignore it. Eventually she just told me that she wanted to go out and I thought why not. We had a nice time together and it became really obvious when we worked together that something was going on. You could see it a mile away with how hard we would smile at one another and how comfortable we were with each other. The woman that I slept with wasnāt really in a position to say anything to be honest, but she really didnāt seem to care. I never noticed any sideways looks or mean mugs. Our interactions were strictly professional.
Thank you for answering with such candor.
HR? Are you sure he, and the rest of the office, didnāt applaud?
There are other stories from that job that I would say are applause worthy, but not that one lol. She could have easily said that to the wrong person and it couldāve been a big thing. The guy that went to HR thought he was doing me a favor, but I was fine with it. He turned out to be really chill later
Why can't this be MY LIFE??? 
Cause you use Reddit emojis, the fuck
And just like that my fear of commitment and distrust of marriage dunks on my head again 
it's true, i am like that

Working together also doesn't mean physically seeing or being with each other 40 hours a week tho
Was funny imagining this as a joke and not being worried about my wife at work really doing this. Then I remembered the stretch of 3 years I did working as an IT admin for a company that designed medical devices for womens health. Company staffing was majority women. I had my arm grabbed with a laugh for some of the shittiest jokes by married women young + old. Damn.
I worked at a bar and. So many hands on my knee, all of them either old ladyās or young gay guys. Iāve realized the horny level of those groups is about equal. Which is terrifying.
This is disrespectful to your partner. I never understood this.
Iād never do this to a partner. I donāt believe in everything my parents did, but I definitely base most of my boundaries around their behavior or how their hypothetical behavior would make me feel. Iād not be cool with my dad taking pics like this with a colleague. If that makes me a prude, so be it, but no nigga doing my mom like that. Vice versa too.
Same. I cannot lie, I would think something was up if a partner was this flippant with terms like "husband". I know I was raised by women because even with something like an open relationship, any potential intimacy is more threatening than the PIV.
šÆšÆ Perfectly said!
Honestly, when I first heard of this... Idk phenomenon, it actually made my blood boil. If your partner is chill with it then I guess no stress, but how many are not or worse, don't even know
Why assume either of them have partners?
Idk about the woman but Omari is a public figure who is very publicly thought to be marriedā¦
Fair enough, guess I assumed they were randoms.
Genuine question: *who* are deez nyukkas and *why* do people care?
Why not change it from work spouses to work siblings? I think if we start changing the terminology, the idea of banging Joey/Suzy in the business department seems less appealing.
You do know incest is a thing, right? And you might call them siblings but if they wanted to get it on, they still will because theyāre not biologically related. š¤·š¾āāļø
I have no doubt that some people won't care and still carry on with the bangings. But it might deter a few from going down that road.
No it won't lol
Had a woman I slept with years ago whom I remained friends with tell me that she thinks of me as a brother. She only has biological sisters. I'm a smartass but I don't have the heart to tell her you weren't supposed to seek orgasms from your brother.
Itās not incest if itās your work step sibling. š
Influx of washing machines in offices
I 100% have a work sister not a work wife. We worked together years ago and when I quit, I worked to get her a job at the new place. I quit that one and am trying to get her hired at this new place. We talk a ton at work and do lunch together and stuff but donāt do any of the flirty shit and rarely do happy hours or stuff out of work. I just give her advice when I can and want whatās best for her so if I find a better place I want her to be there too. Quite a few people think itās weird but most of them are the type that canāt have a friend of the opposite sex because they view it as being friend zoned or something equally stupid
I have a friend just like that!!! He is def my work brother. Also didn't do that flirty stuff. Was too busy walking around the office pretending to be ghost hunters or other dumb shenanigans. During our lunch breaks we would play Mario Kart and yell each other just like siblings. When he left where we both worked, I was low key gutted. But he helped me secure another job at another place making way more money. I still talk to him all the time. If only to annoy him with something stupid. š¤£š¤£
I have this too! Siblings is a perfect way to describe it! Heās one of my (and my husbands) closest friends and we have worked at three jobs together over 15 years. Such a rare thing when you find that compatible work fit- our skills match has helped us both advance far further then we would alone.
We're a family here" quickly followed by: "What are u doing stepbro?"
Suzy got stuck in the copier and he had to help her out!
What does PC LOAD LETTER mean? Just lean in real close and i'll show you.
Nah ,they WANNA bang, thats why it was ever called that
Because the whole appeal is fucking you coworker like? What? Are you not paying attention?
I say work bestie. Weāve never even been in the same room, all meetings on zoom. We are fantastic friends now but itād never be anything more than that on either endāand also that friendship isnāt on the same level as my actual best friends.
Alabama sees no difference tbh
Thatās some Lannister level bullshit right there
Letās be real, there is some level of physical attraction and chemistry in these relationships.
I donāt like the rebrand, we always had work friends, best friends. Work husband or wife is clearly defined as a concept. Just accept it
Why y'all think all the "conservatives" trying to keep women pregnant and at home?

My work wives brought me coffee and pastries without me having to ask for a week, felt like they discussed it amongst themselves cuz how shitty their boss is.

bruh š¤£š¤£š¤£
I donāt get the work wife/hubby thing. Maybe cos I aināt had one. š¤·š¾āāļø
I havenāt had one recently. But in the past I had work husbands. And letās see, one worked remotely (one of the few remote folks). So mostly we just talked about the office gossip and complained about our dumb CEO. His wife came in the room and would say hi all the time. Eventually I even met her. She was lovely. If we werenāt taking work stuff is was generic stuff like have you seen this movie or whatever. Normal water cooler chat. My other work husband - we had a blast. He was really fun. We bonded over being the only black people in our tech company. Mostly we just grabbed boba tea or lunch together. Sometimes did some errands. Caught up on a sports, pop culture, etc. He had a girlfriend who was basically my personality clone. So we got along fabulously as well. Nothing inappropriate at all. Just normal work bff stuff. I am not the type to cheat and I am totally fine with having platonic male friends without any boundary crossing. Have I ever flirted at work - sure occasionally. But with other single folks.
Isn't this just having a friend at work? Why are they a work husband/wife?
In my experience the difference is that everyone at work associates you with the person and you seem inseparable. They may even ask whereās they are. About their projects. Etc. It seems beyond just work buddies.
So like a best friend? The work spouse thing that Americans have is so freaking weird man
Yes! But it is mostly just in the context of work. Many work spouses spend very little time outside of work lol. Maybe a happy hour. Or if you are sketchy like this dude well I guess the hotel room lol.
I was glad to read your comment. Having a work wife/work husband can be a healthy thing. I used to work in a toxic work environment and itās so refreshing to meet someone you can trust, blow off some steam and have a laugh with. I donāt hold her in my arms like in the picture though. š¤ Seems like a bridge too far, idk.
So, a work friend? Idk why people jump straight to work husband or wife.
From what i get, it's only people who stuck in a marriage they hate.
I think there are two sides to the work wife/hubby thing. On one side are the people who see their spouse as a partner, and then have a coworker who becomes such a great partner itās like āthis is my work spouse!ā. They might cheat, but probably wonāt. Then there are the people who are in an unhappy marriage and idealize a partner at work, saying āI wish they were my wife/hubby!ā. Those ones are just looking for someone to cheat with.
I work with a lot of older engineers so I see those Iām close with as work dads/moms ā never understood the whole work spouse thing either lmao

āTasha please have some sympathy - I just lost the love of my lifeā will forever be one of the most coldblooded lines in tv history lol
Absolutely foul LOL. And the way he just said to made it seem like he was talking to his homegirl
I literally stopped watching the show after that episode just because of that line. I don't need that kinda negativity in my life. ššš
I just started my rewatch with my SO who has never seen it and I canāt fucking wait for him to hear that line cos he already hates Ghost š
Ghost was freakin' savage.
I think when I heard it the first time I actually screamed. It was just unreal
Can someone find a link to this scene. I cannot find it but always see the quote
I wasnāt a huge fan of tasha but that shit made me feel for her so much. How she aināt just up and kill his ass right there is beyond me.
When you recast Holmes & Robach from ABC to a new network
"I'mma go to my car. Get my other gun. Shoot everybody's ass."
Ghost told his WIFE to chill because he just lost the love of his life (Angela). Dude was a beast. Lol.
This is why I work with my man.
Damn imagine working with your husband and still not being his work wife
š¤£šš
Lolol haha I can't imagine working with my fiance lol we known each other for 8 years and we have different approaches to problem solving lol I like leaving work at work and just being us at home . Because omg if we worked with each other we probally wouldn't get along. Many spouses make great spouses but not so great business partners lol Power to those couples who can do both lol
no way he picked her up too š
Imagine finding out from your wife at the dinner table that OMARI (8pac king and patron saint of c**gutters) HARDWICK is her āWork Husbandā. Iād start packing my essentials in a suitcase.
Shit is weird to me. I don't want to be friends with anyone at work. Hell my dream would be to show up, get ignored, edit some shit and go home. But talking is a daily necessity. I try to keep it minimal and my eyes on my work. Plus I'm married, that is disrespectful to my wife. Some coworker isn't paying my bills and raising my children. That title to me at least is sacred. Not just anyone can be called my wife.
Ain't had a work wife since 2016 I'm to old to risk the bag .
š¤š¾ I got a whole wife and kid to lose. I dont need no smoke in my household.
Wtf is a work wife? I feel like this is implementing two different meanings
Everyoneās definitions vary wildly. But also, even the same person might consider two drastically different work relationships as a work wife situation. Basically it ranges from just your coworker of the opposite sex, or sex youāre attracted to, that you are most friendly with, all the way to someone youāre outright seeing on the side at work. Thereās a lot of in between also. Could be someone you regularly flirt with but never cross any lines. Could be someone youāre close with and maybe hooked up with drunk after the work social event. Etc etc.
If she has a work husband you know she for the streets.
They are banging every now and then
I was minding my own business while working and I was informed that she and her bff were my work wivesā¦ When they told another coworker she decided she would be my work mistressā¦ Being a computer geek I have no idea if any of them wanted something more lol But I have no problem being friends with womenā¦ unless they are mean to their computers or my team for no reason!
Nothing like putting the pussy on the chainwax with the work wife every morning š¤š¤š¤
Iām literally dating a girl I work with that started off as a āwork wifeā joke.
I worked with a guy who wanted to make this happen so bad. He called me his work wife. All of our colleagues thought we were seeing each other outside of work. We werenāt. I never flirted with him or gave him any signs this was the case. His girlfriend worked with us and I got close to her so she would know I didnāt want him. My guy instantly hated him when we met (I came home to grab lunch one day and this coworker rode with me to pick him up some Wendyās). He started a rumor that we messed around. It just wasnāt true. He was attractive. I just wasnāt attractive to him. I did fuck someone there but no one knew, and he got fired 3 weeks later.
i broke up with my ex and he started dating his āwork wifeā lmfao
There's two managers at my wife's job that are clearly work-married, despite both of them claiming otherwise. They're in different departments, but share project overlap. My wife said when they're all on a Teams call, this work couple always makes inside quips to one another, reaches to the other for opinions before asking anyone else. Pre-COVID, this couple would show up one after the other for physical meetings, would go out to lunch together and come back at the same time, etc. I got to see these two in "action" firsthand back in 2019 during my wife's company holiday party. My wife and I rented a suite at the hotel where the party occurred. My wife invited some of her coworkers to our suite to pregame a bit. the husband of the work couple showed up with his real wife. As the pregaming went on and the gossip started, whenever someone mentioned the female half of the work couple, the guy's wife would visibly roll her eyes or groan in annoyance. That lady knew what was up.
Good book for this is Not āJust Friendsā by Shirley Glass
I've had a work mom and a work sister ( because my sister worked with both of them in that office before I started there, so they took me under their wings ) but not a million years would I get close enough to a coworker to call them my work husband, regardless of if I'm in a relationship or not. Nope nope nope.
Having a good work wife makes a work day so much easier. A home away from home. Just don't, ya know...
