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".

A prison girlfriend is like your identical twin sister, but closer. You share a brain, but you don't share men, and you don't share each other.
