Work Girlfriend

Favourite female co-worker who you get along with really well and enjoy spending time with but in a plutonic way. She's your girlfriend between 9 and 5 without sex.
Guy: My work girlfriend said the funniest thing this morning.

Guy's actual girlfriend: WTF? you cheating on me? Why don't you go and tell your "work girlfriend" that you can't even shave your own ass.

Guy's friend: Only dumbasses used the term work girlfriend in front of their actual girlfriends.

Virtual Work Girlfriend

A relationship you developed with an exceptionally witty female colleague during the COVID pandemic while working remotely, despite having never met in person. The entire relationship is based on far too many zoom calls and slack chats talking about mindless work crap and how stupid and lame all your coworkers are. The top ranked virtual female friend receives the coveted label "girlfriend". An improvement over the traditional "work wife" in spite of being apparently lower on the hierarchy. This is because you don't share a physical space so there are fewer requirements to buy expensive, shiny things to keep her happy, and arguments can be conveniently ended with "internet issues".
Child 1 "Mom found out Dad was going to Austin to meet his virtual work girlfriend!"
Child 2 "Oh shit."

Serial Monogamist 

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.
Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
