We worked for the same company but at different offices. Normally I would avoid dating someone I work with but I hated that job so I didn’t care. She was cute. I was going through a divorce. I started chatting her up because I thought she was cute. I was still kind of surprised when she asked me out. I said yes but told her I wasn’t ready for a serious relationship and why. She was cool with that.

Eventually it turned into something serious. That was almost 7 years, a wedding, and two babies ago. She is an absolute gem of a lady and my best friend. 10/10 would definitely trade that shitty job for my awesome wife again.
