Miss and I were scandalous and met at work. We actually began our relationship and rode through those early electric moments with stolen kisses and prolonged gazes behind every one else's backs, in bathrooms (another advantage to the female/female equation), and in the parking lot. Ahem... we won't go into that one.
Anyhow, we decided to keep it hidden for a couple of reasons. One: inter-company relationships were not exactly looked favorably upon by the powers that be, and Two: the inherent juciness of gossip surrounding two girls hooking up was UNDENIABLE. I won't deny it either: there is a part of having a hidden/forbidden relationship that is H.O.T.
However, there comes a time when you get sick of hiding. Almost a year into our relationship, that time has come with us. So lately, Miss and I have been casually informing long time co-workers not only of our sexuality, but also of OUR sly affair. Truthfully -- it's been quite fun. So far everyone has been great about it. It's not so bad, because we are actually not working with the same company right now (we freelance), and so the hurdle of frowning bosses is thankfully passed. What a blessing to be able to go to dinner parties as a couple instead of as "good friends!"
Except I'd be lying if I didn't admit: from time to time, I do miss those clandestine escapes to the bathroom.
xoxo,
Ms.
