Ooft! I’m sure I’ve asked you this before NV but is it just you that’s clocked this or are a few of your colleagues in the know?

We shouldn’t speak about this while there’s an HR investigation pending.

I need to get back to work.

Just me. Although there has been the odd comment from colleagues about their 2 hr lunch breaks…

How many times have you used that as an opportunity for an “eating out” comment?

Fair play for not spilling this to any work wives/husbands.

Well we both have partners and even though people say he likes me like that, I like to remind him on an almost daily basis that I wouldn’t touch him with a barge pole!
Just because I have previously dated someone at work, doesn’t mean that I’m always game for a work based relationship GEOFF.

But I do always think with work crushes, you don’t crush on someone forever. Like usually you get to a point where you get over it cause you’ve spoken to them and they’ve done something cringe. I don’t think I’m particularly fancyable and I’m just like even if you do fancy me, I am quite gross and annoying that you MUST be over this crush now.

I have remained tight-lipped

I think I did about two years ago. In a small department we kinda paired up. We were the normal ones, obviously, and the other two were weird. Then she left and I became closer to one of the weird ones.

I’d go for a pint after work with the first one. We’d talk about things I would never talk to other colleagues about.

We’d joke together.

I’m not married but I heard being in a continuous union with one person forever is no joke :joy::rofl::sweat:

Or you realise that you’re only crushing on them because you’re really bored.

oooooof!

Any money this guy crywanks himself to sleep every night.

I think I kind of had a work wife for a while

I was recently separated and was in need of a friend - we ended up hanging out together a fair bit. She is a fair bit older than me so I didn’t think there were any romantic feelings on her part, and there weren’t on mine.

Anyway when I told her I had started seeing someone she started crying and I realised the situation was not what I thought it was :confounded:

I know this - was just saying HIS mind will be thinking you might be.

I don’t have any work crushes or whatever but yeah work does offer a unique opportunity for you to go “haha nah I don’t fancy this person any more now they’ve done that”.

oooooooooooooooof

Oh wow that sounds incredibly awkward man! Was she alright in the end or were things left a bit open?

luckily we had stopped working directly with each other - we just stopped hanging out

I still see her around the company from time to time (it’s a big place, and she is a contractor so doesn’t tend to be there all year round) - we are cool I think, but the closeness is all gone now
