What does it mean if a girl calls me her "work boyfriend?" She keeps calling me that and telling everyone that I'm her "work boyfriend" and I have no idea what's going on
It just means that you guys spend a LOT of time working together. That's all.
Oh, and she wants to blow your cock in the supply room. But, whatevs
Work boyfriend = I think you're cute and I like your company but I'd probably never date you
>>27086962
Really
She likes to put her head on my shoulder if I'm just standing around and say she loves me and tries to get me to say it back
She's got a real boyfriend though and he's a big guy who could blast my ass
Work boyfriend = work beta orbiter. She probably already has a real boyfriend.
>>27086989
>>27087033
I'll never understand girls
>>27087026
Well if you did go through with it
Would getting caught be part of your plan?
bang her in the break room to be sure
>>27087026
Maybe she wants him to blast your ass in front of her. Could be hot anon.
Thank about it
>>27086912
It means she's pissing you
around and playing weird little emotional manipulation games.
Stop talking to her yesterday, you sap.
>>27086989
>>27087033
Pretty much this. I had the same situation at my old job and she did have a actual bf. I didn't really care because I wasn't actually attracted to her in that way.
>>27086912
It's a joke that you hang out a lot at work and are probably close.
It's literally the friendzone.
Either she's just joking because she's a funny idiot or she's mocking you because you're so pathetic and autistic she can get away with it.
>>27087134
without a doubt it would be extremely painful
>>27087182
now there's an idea
>>27087216
>>27087246
She doesn't really seem like a cruel enough person to do that kind of thing but what do I know
>>27087218
you're probably right i'm just too sad and hopeless to realize it
>>27087246
>>27086912
This.
It's the grownup friendzone. It's literally the same shit as guys in the friendzone with girls in school, only from 9 to 5 in an office instead of school hours.
Congratulations on not graduating
>>27087364
nothing ever really changes does it
>>27087334
>She doesn't really seem like a cruel enough person to do that kind of thing but what do I know
Do you remember the story of the scorpion and the frog?
It's in her nature. She is about as self-aware of it as a tiger is of its own stripes
There doesn't have to BE any conscious, malicious intent. That's where most guys fuck up in their line of thinking, betas and alphas alike. They assume women do what they do out of of some conscious agenda to mentally fuck men over
Of course some women -are- black widow sociopaths and do the shit with real cruel intent, but the point is that the intent is not necessary. They don't have to want to use it. They wouldn't believe they're doing it if it was showed to them. They do it with as much effort as breathing. Nature encoded them to be able to cattle weak men around like stupid donkeys, and if you think she's too sweet to do so, you only have yourself to blame
>>27087460
No, it doesn't
However, one unchanging thing is that there have always been men who wake up
>>27087513
That's a hell of a worldview
I love Gondolas.
They're so comfy.
>>27087574
And where has that gotten you
>>27087699
totally agree
>>27087699
I've never been. How so?
>>27087699
come for the strange story, stay for the gondolas
>>27087699
>mfw I drew the gondola in the OP
It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
>>27087813
It's not that strange is it?
>>27086912
it's a joke at your expense, she probably means it as a term of endearment but the underlying joke is "haha, just kidding faggot"
I mean, it probably isn't malicious in intent, but everyone else at the workplace will think that she is leading you around on a chain even if she isn't, which is probably her intent. Kind of a female power play, where you are forced to either disassociate with her or tell her you want to go through a workplace breakup.
cheat code is getting HR involved, but there's probably no need for that, you can handle your own business right, anon?
>>27087829
It really is.
"Work Boyfriend"?
That's the kind of outlandishly retarded shit you'd hear on a Nickelodean Sitcom.
>>27087829
It's pretty weird, especially putting her head on your shouder and asking you to say you love her. Tell her if you're her boyfriend, you guys are gonna fug in the closet or bathroom. Be dead serious, and grab her hand leading to do it. Keep pressuring her for sex like in a real relationship.
>>27087738
>And where has that gotten you
Out of the friend zone and into a place where girl problems don't exist
Money problems and health problems are enough to deal with already
>>27087868
>Keep pressuring her for sex like in a real relationship.
Are you trying to get this nigga fired?
Do you know how fucked the system is with women and sexual harassment claims in the workplace?
Do you know that the courts don't think rape has to included physical contact anymore?
Even regretted sex counts as rape now.
>>27087574
>men who wake up
but not necessarily becoming any freer for it
>>27087828
It's probably my favorite out of all the gondolas i've saved
>>27087834
yeah maybe. getting hr involved would be a huge overreaction because it really doesn't matter to me much anyway
>>27087855
when you put it that way it makes me think you're 100 percent correct
>>27087868
i'm a socially retarded borderline autist and i even know thats a bad idea
>>27087910
lmao who gives a shit they're in a relationship and its official and they love each other
>>27087761
>le tricky hook maymay (but original)
>>27087855
I pass as autistic although I'm not. Some bitty at work started calling me her work boyfriend after we worked a couple shifts together despite me having a gf at the time and her having a bf.
I essentially told her to zuck my dick after the third time as a joke and she stopped, but I was weirded out by it initially. She later described herself socially as a "queen bee", but I think it was probably delusion.
OP's situation seems to be much more of an actual friendship than my situation, but another autist anon has been given the same moniker.
I don't know how serious it is, but you can always tell people to stop. I do not think this means she wants to jump your bone or is humiliating you, but I don't know.
I assume the term is from some 90's sitcom or something, cause it seems to retarded to be used independently by two sentient beings.
>>27087935
Not even trying to be funny, man
Men have had their lives legally ruined over this for literally nothing. Especially married men.
A woman's word has become law in the west. It's not a joke
>>27088113
>it seems to retarded to be used independently by two sentient beings.Maybe it's the same girl. Where do you two anons live, and where do you work?
>>27088156
Girl's name was Mel, was in Southern Ontario at the time. Was 6 years ago at this point, assume she's married by now. Would kind of be pissed if she had moved onto other workboyfriends so quickly, but maybe I should move on myself
>>27088113
>>27088156
I can't imagine it's a thing they've just made upI live in northeast ohio
>>27088113
>>27088156
I just googled it.
It's a thing. Even Urban Dictionary has a page for it.
>>27088240
ahh now see, google solves this whole thread in one fell swoop.
>>27088288
Dammit, I was hoping this thread was gunna end with a twist ending.
>>27088311
like he has a work girlfriend at his second job?
or she has a benis :DDDD
>>27088337
No, like it was the same girl or something
>>27088379
there can be a lot more twists than that
>>27088288
>>27088240
thats pretty underwhelming
>>27088337
>or she has a benis :DDDD
could you imagine
>>27088407
bet you'd be a lot more interested in being work boyfriend with a cock in the mix
>>27088427
work buttbuddies 4 life
>>27088427
it would probably get a lot more replies on r9k
Would date you but you don't date coworkers because when it goes south (AND IT ALWAYS DOES) shit becomes unbearable and someone has to quit.
Easier to just be flirty and not date, cuz money
>>27087026
Whatever word stands before "boyfriend" just means you are so close to her emotionally that you are like a boyfriend but still not in the position to have sex with her.
>>27086912
>People at work say "wheres your boyfriend?" to the one grill
>She brushes it off
>Kills me on the inside
Someone put an end to my suffering please
>>27088730
What's your story buddy
>>27088810
>Work with grill 2-3 / 5 days of the week
>We have 2 stores in the mall
>We always try to work in the same one when we can
>Both cynical assholes(if she weren't a girl she'd definitely be on r9k)
>Make each other laugh all day
>Go to the bar for a few hours each day after we work
I dunno i'm probably seeing it for more than it really is but i hardly get along with my guy friends this well, let alone a girl.
I just know its never going to amount to anything -.-
It's the friendzone by another name. She tells other people about it because girls like showing off what kind of people they can turn into putty to be shaped at will by the smallest social gestures.
