1. You didn’t like them at first, the same way every Great Love Story begins.
But your unguarded heart knew that you would consciously couple in the end.
2. They distract your boss while you're obviously online shopping.
And they save the day.
3. They know exactly how to react when the co-worker you hate gives a presentation.
They got your back.
4. They will never bring up what you did during that really messy holiday party.
Or maybe they will, but they'll be cute about it.
5. They've seen you cry.
More than once.
6. Having them around feels like a job perk.
And it makes quitting that much harder.
7. They are totally game to drink vodka out of a coffee cup at 4 p.m.
And you never loved them more.
8. They lose their shit when you're out sick.
And it makes you feel so loved.
9. They volunteer to help talk through your relationship issues.
Even thought they've heard about them all day, errday.
10. You have a secret language that is comprised entirely of glances.
This one means: "At dawn, we ride."
11. You've had disagreements in the past.
But, like a good work couple, you've gotten through them together.
12. They know just how to make you feel better.
Even on the worst day.
13. They make those awkward office events bearable.
Because you always have fun no matter what.
14. They try to lighten the mood when you're giving a nerve-racking speech.
They are in it to win it.
15. You get jealous when they eat lunch with anyone that's not you.
And you dwell on it for the rest of the day.
16. They always remember your birthday...
And they make sure that other people do, too.
17. They celebrate your victories.
As if those successes were their own.
18. You like really love them...
Not in a romantic way, but in a thank-god-I-found-you-because-you-brighten-up-my-day way.
19. They will be in your future wedding.
You just know it.
20. They have slowly stapled, paperclipped, and Google-calendared their way into your life.
And now you can't live without them for the foreseeable future.
21. They are one of the highlights of your day.
And you couldn't do a thing without them.
