We weren't really ever just friends because there was flirting from day one and from the day we met we talked every single day even though we weren't officially dating until 6 months later. I would say we were dating from the beginning but weren't in an official relationship for awhile. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/friends-or-lovers#post-1884576 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 14:10:38 +0000 JennyG 1884576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We worked together, but were each dating other people when he started teaching at my school. (We now teach in different districts.) I can still remember when he walked in to our summer PD and thinking, whoa, cute guy. We were sorta friendly, mostly flirty until we were both single and he asked me on a date. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/friends-or-lovers#post-1884575 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 14:10:16 +0000 Mrs.KMM 1884575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ILoveLettie: Sounds like us.

It developed into a flirtation hardcore when my boyfriend and I broke up in April, though both of us had unacknowledged secret feelings before that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/friends-or-lovers#post-1884522 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 13:47:29 +0000 bunnylove08 1884522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we worked together </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/friends-or-lovers#post-1884468 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 13:13:40 +0000 MrsTiz 1884468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were really close friends for 4 years before we started dating! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/friends-or-lovers#post-1884457 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 13:07:21 +0000 LuLu Mom 1884457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, our relationship started with dating.
