This Woman Wants To Know If She’s Wrong For Not Disclosing Her Relationship Status With Her Coworkers
Sharing your personal life with your coworkers isn't always the best idea.
Coworkers spend a lot of time together, and some of them end up being friends, while others tend to keep their personal lives a bit more private. Sometimes, it isn't best to share your personal life with your coworkers, but on the other hand, there are times when you might find a lifelong friend at your workplace.
When you work alongside someone, you might make assumptions about their lives; for example, if they aren't wearing a wedding ring, you might think they are single. Well, we're here with another Reddit story, and this one delves into a woman's experience with coworkers who discovered, after years of working with her, that she isn't married.
The reaction from one of her coworkers was very unexpected and a little creepy as well, but we'll let you be the judge of that. This woman is coming to Reddit to see if she is in the wrong for not disclosing her relationship status to a coworker who has a crush on her, as her coworkers say she should apologize.
Let's look into this woman's story and see what exactly happened so we can form our own opinions on who exactly is "TA" in this situation.
Here's the story about her relationship status and what happened with the coworker.
neyeongReddit flooded in with comments from people saying that she's NTA.

Definitely NTA because she doesn't need to explain her personal life to anyone.

People are advising her to watch out for the coworker who reacted that way. Big red flags.

It is quite strange how her coworkers expect her to apologize to C.
TheFamousHesham
Honestly, she's NTA, and she doesn't have to remove her ring just because she's widowed.
Odd-Astronaut-92
This is a huge red flag regarding someone's behavior, and she definitely should be cautious around him.

We couldn't have said it better.
BUTTeredWhiteBread
She does need to be careful and plan just in case C tries anything crazy.
FirebirdWriter
This whole situation is completely unprofessional for coworkers in a law firm.
CommissionAlarmed247
Again, she literally has no obligation to anyone to disclose anything.
PolitelyHostile
If the coworkers were that close of friends with her, they would have known about her relationship status.
StereoOnCookingBacon
This is true, but she could have also lied about her marriage, and it still wouldn't have been their business.
attabe123
Total red flags everywhere.
starslighten
Simply put.
ucitygal
People are very concerned about her coworker C.
Somewhere_in_Canada1
She has nothing to apologize for.
IwannaBAtapdancer
Whether they assumed or not, it still isn't their right to know her personal life information.
Aethermist88
She technically might consider herself still in a relationship. She's not single; she's widowed.

The number one comment said it best.
antonio-bolonio
This story is just full of red flags, and even the Reddit commenters agreed with that. Sometimes, it's best just to keep your personal life to yourself, but it's important to know that nobody is entitled to your personal business.
What do you think about this situation? Would you apologize?
