Today I found out that my coworker (the groomer I actually like) is in an open marriage
When i said “my boyfriend”, he responded with something I said once about Joey (who i usually call “my fiance”) so I had to clarify
I said “okay, uh, yeah this is gonna sound weird but um, my boyfriend is different than my fiance”
and i was expecting some sort of reaction but he was so nonchalant about it, and just said “ohh, i get ya”
and i got flustered bcus i was worried he thought I was cheating, and started trying to explain, but he just said “no, i know what you’re saying. i’m in an open marriage, i get it. you don’t need to explain”
and i was just…so overwhelmingly relieved?
he and i ended up talking a lot about our relationships for like, HOURS today, and he said at one point “it’s nice to be able to talk to someone about this without worrying about judgement”
it was a really, really wonderful bonding experience
he makes me not want to quit this job lmao
