    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.

          I’ve never gotten it as an effective insult, tbh. It boils down to:

          I wish I knew half of you better, and I’m a crab about some of you

          No? If he doesn’t like them as well as they deserve, then the “problem” is with him, not them. It’s definitely not welcoming, but it’s not exactly insulting if I’m reading it right.

    Take a work wife (which is already a psychotic term), remove the “work” part, and act like you invented this new type of relationship…

        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.

    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!”
