You know what, seal Hormuz up again.
i have great news
You heard it here first folks 👆. People ask whose idea it was and if I’m perfectly honest it was my idea. People say it all the time I have the best ideas of the history of thoughts. It can only good think if the thinking is I’m doing it 👐
Dunno why I was totally expecting the Madagascar penguins for some reason.
This guy is desperate to:
-
fuck her
-
pretend he doesn’t
If she is meeting him out of work, going to dinner, “cackling” whatever that means.
There’s something in it for her too. Ain’t nobody that naive
-
Take a work wife (which is already a psychotic term), remove the “work” part, and act like you invented this new type of relationship…
What are you even talking about!?
Tech morons are always acting like they’ve just discovered fundamental features of the human experience for the very first time.
Oh it is not just tech. Sailing and ships have ship wives which usually just means taking advantage of a newer person that is scared of saying no to a higher rank.
Everyone likes to think they are new and original and good morally while being awful.
They probably did
You could not pay me enough money to admit something like this publicly, yet bro just did it for free. Lmao.
The expression “Bestie” is pretty weird in Germany, as it is pronounced besty-uh and literally translates to “wild animal” or “monster”. “Larissa was a real “Bestie” in bed last night; I’m completely bruised and scratched all over. Glad I have my work wife!”
beast
You dislike Bestieality, and that’s OK.
LOL. Beast mode is best mode?
I’m bald so I don’t remember … is that what hair is supposed to look like?
No, that’s what denial looks like
most of my colleagues are women, I get along with them great. We occasionally socialize a couple of times a year outside work. I would be mortified for anyone to think they were anything more than purely colleagues.
like I wouldn’t really be happy to think of them as friends - not that they’re not lovely people, just that I have my friends who are friends, and these are nice people I work with.
Intersting the way people assume “wife” means sex, and not the more likely analogy that she does all the shitty work to aid his career.
Wife implies sex. The whole thing is usually “we would be fucking if we weren’t married to other people”. They can deny it all they want, but it’s mostly true.
Hey, now. Manipulating someone to do work for you and then taking credit for the whole thing is also fucking!
Friends are good for you
Semantics aside, I wonder how she would describe the same relationship and what prompted him to post this in the first place.
Externally?
He’s just a friend
Internally?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Especially after this awkward message…
I’ve had a “work wife” or two at every job I’ve had. Most of them were married, and I never hooked up with them. One of them told me she loved me, and divorced her husband because she wanted someone like me, even though we never so much as kissed. Two of them (single) became girlfriends, so not really “work wives.” I had two bosses’ wives hit on me, which I avoided. I haven’t kept in touch with any of them.
There are a lot of women in the art and design field.
Corporate shit that just needs to die
I’m just, uh… I mean… wut?
work wife=side piece, assuming he has a real wife.
Assuming he’s not cheating with her (emotionally or physically), this is called having a friend.
“Cheating emotionally”? What is that?
like if buddy here was behaving romantically towards his ‘work wife’ without the consent of his actual wife.
What does “behaving romantically” mean, though? Can they go see a movie together? People become emotionally intimate with their friends, and it seems pretty fucked up to claim that’s cheating.
It probably depends on the person/couple. But if he were being emotionally intimate with the work colleague in a way he wasn’t with his actual spouse that could be problematic.
That’s reductive and throws away most of the meaning. A cell mate is not just someone you live with.
Guys don’t have women friends bruh /s
