I must be the exception. My wife and I were both single when we met at a bank. The people we worked with thought we didn't like each other very much. When my wife left to take a job at another bank, her best friend at work was shocked to find out that we were dating. On the other hand, I've seen singles date, and when they break up, all hell breaks loose. Once, a woman I worked with received flowers at the office on her birthday, but because her boyfriend and her husband shared the same (first) name, she didn't know who they came from.
