New Delhi: When Delhi resident Payal started working in a private company, her focus was only on her career. But he met a colleague who changed his life.
Initially their conversations were limited to work topics only, but gradually it also focused on personal life and likes and dislikes.
Laughing and joking during lunch breaks and coffee became a part of their daily routine. Now Payal used to look forward to going to office, which she disliked earlier.
A recent survey found that about 86 percent of employees believe that remote working has promoted office romance.
However, Payal’s relationship was not always a happy one. Work pressure and misunderstandings put a strain on their relationship, resulting in their breakup.
It was extremely difficult for Payal to see her former partner in the same office. He faced jealousy and anger.
After several days of mental turmoil, Payal realized that she should channelize her energy in a positive direction. She asked herself how long she would carry the sadness with her.
Instead of crying, Payal started reading books and decided to visit new places on weekends. Most importantly, he stopped looking at his ex-partner’s social media profiles.
