With Valentine's Day coming up this week, I want to turn the tables towards a romance that is usually ignored this time of year: The Work Bestie Relationship.

Work Besties are some of the greatest friends you will ever make. You spend most of your time at your job, so it only makes sense that you bond with your coworkers. And when you change jobs? You still keep in touch with your old work friends while making more in the process of training for the new job. It's a beautiful romance.

You have common enemies

High maintenance customers, agitated bosses, and the annoying/lazy/mean coworkers all become common enemies. You initially bond over your troubles at work, lightly complaining turns into confiding in each other, asking for legitimate help on how to handle a situation.

You understand the stress they complain about

You live the stress every day when you're at work. You're usually the one standing next to them when they have to deal with the crazy customer, trying so hard to not roll your eyes or rip out your hair as they keep you well past closing time.

You might be stressed the eff out at work, but you end up looking forward to your shifts with your bestie

The work day does not truly begin until your peeps show up for their shift!!

Lunch breaks are the best breaks

Sometimes lunch breaks are literally breaks from each other and you sit in absolute silence, aside from listening to each other chew. Other times, it becomes a feast of gossip rather than tacos.

You enable each other

You buy each other drinks after a long shift, or take each other shopping. Work in retail? Oh, they will talk you into buying that shirt you've been eyeing for two weeks.

You validate each other's choices

Be it big life decisions like finding another job or applying to grad school, or something small such as the shade of lipstick you decided to wear that day to work, work besties always validate each other.
