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...
Corporate shit that just needs to die
I'm just, uh... I mean... wut?
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.
work wife=side piece, assuming he has a real wife.
