Summary

I'm joined by Kristen and Sam, my friends who are getting married in 2023 who – you guessed it – met at work. We hear how Kristen was crushing on Sam from afar and what steps she took to assess if there was mutual interest and make her move. They share Sam's initial hesitations, how they navigated the early stages of figuring out what was between them while keeping things professional, and if they told their colleagues that they were together. We discuss getting over your work crush who isn't interested in you, handling breakups in the workplace, differentiating between work spouse feelings vs. romantic feelings, and more.
