Sounds awesome, so happy for you.

In regard to your work colleague though there are some people who never talk or mentions their other half or partner, even with people who I’ve worked with for over a decade, some of them rarely talk about their other half though they do talk about other aspects of their lives including their kids.

Just a friendly little heads up about it.

Oh for sure. Most people I've worked with have the age and circumstances to be partnered even if without kids, so I generally assume that unless said otherwise.

Not that I care 99% of the time; this is just an incredibly stupid crush that will go away soon enough... but it'll go away faster if I know there's a partner for sure!

But at the same time who knows what could happen!

Especially if this person isn’t with or seeing someone.

New beginnings and all.
