I found this site like a hundred years ago when I had a crush on a coworker. I thought he was just the greatest. I was crushing on him so hard.

Eventually, I left that company. It was such a toxic, soul crushing environment and my life is infinitely better not being employed there anymore.

The interesting thing was once I left, I realized this guy wasn't all that. He wasn't anything extraordinary. His looks were average. His personality was actually kind of dull.

I realized that developing a crush on a coworker was a coping mechanism. It got me out of bed and into work when even the money wasn't enough. He was the only thing that kept me going another day at that awful company. It wasn't love it was a manufactured happy place to keep me from up and quitting on any given day.
