[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Whats up with work-wife/husband? Is this a thing? My husband and I don't have a work anything.  OP to me it seems like the beginning of an affair. [/quote]

It’s a weird term but I would say it’s pretty normal to get very close/casual with a colleague you work closely with and that’s what people mean by “work husband” usually I think - that you have crossed over to where you have unguarded conversations about the boss or whatever. [b]Or like, you know when the other person poops because you travel together so much.[/b]

There’s also a long tradition of Helpless Men who have a wife who takes care of them at home and a work wife who does it at the office, an admin assistant who also has to make sure he has an extra tie or birthday gifts for his kid a la Mad Men. But I don’t think “work wife” usually means that now, it just means close and casual. Not sexual. Like a sibling. [/quote]

WTF. You'll NEVER find out when I poop. NEVER.[/quote]
