Our story is a little different than your normal love story so here goes all in a nutshell. I started working as a payroll administrator for a pipe manufacturing company in which I was there for 5 years. I ended up getting pregnant with my second daughter and I found out that my ex husband was having an affair for the past 3 years and got his affair partner pregnant at the same time I was. (His son and our daughter are only 5 months apart) I ended up quitting my job because I was offered a better paying position and I was able to work from home doing the same. So, I ended up being a single mother of two for a 5 year old and a newborn, managed to leave my loser of an ex husband and got divorced almost immediately, sold our home etc... I took time for myself and my daughters.... Now fast forward two years after I left my work I ran into my FH in sushi we exchanged numbers and the rest is history! He asked me to take a chance on him and I'm glad I did!! We are blending families happily...

We did! We also still work together 5 1/2 years later. We do warehouse/sorting work and for half the we work across from eachother and for the other half of the day he's usually my second in some way. I love that we work together; we always make such a strong team!

We did and still work together! I'm a front office manager and he's a security guard. We actually often work the same shifts because our shifts (hotel reception and security) are the same.

We didn't work with each other but next door to each other. We used to take smoke breaks together which is how we really got to know each other and ended up dating. He's quit smoking since then (I'm working on it lol) and I am now working in a different city but he has been job searching lately and one of the places he has applied for is directly behind my work place. I'm crossing my fingers on that job opportunity going through, I miss working near him!
Side note: I could NEVER work with him so I'm impressed by all you ladies that work with your husband/ FHs. We are both extremely headstrong type A overachievers so we would probably kill each other.

We didn't, but had to share the story of a couple at my work. He was the boss and she worked in the same area and they had two kids. Then he started having an affair with another subordinate and he and his wife got a divorce and he married his mistress and now they have a baby. But their weird part for me is NONE of them moved on from the team and now his current wife and ex wife both directly report to him!! That is crazy, yes?
