Ick, flea. I hope it is just work coziness. I know that the comfort level of co-workers can look like more than it is. I really hope that is the case.

Oh, he's her boss and your boss? I totally misread that before. Oh no. I'm really sorry there isn't anyone for you to go to, that's awful.

Flea that is a weird vibe. I feel like this is a Ask A Manager post where everyone wants an update. I hope for your sake that one of them comes to their senses and stops before it becomes a major thing.
As I was leaving today M was like "have fun on your playdate," .. but I did have fun. My crafty friend (whose name also starts with a M) has sooo much crafting stuff. Seriously I think she has as much stuff as the recraft store. We struggled to figure out one technique but had fun. Hit some thrift stores. Had lunch, and she jad several boxes of stuff to donate so she let me pull what I wanted.
And she plays DnD. Her husband was DMing but they lost their group. So they are thinking of starting up again.

Wait, the director and HR don't feel safe speaking to them?? That is some BS. What if it was actually a harassment situation or something? Good grief.

No, I don’t feel safe going to the director or HR. I mean possibly I have trust issues, but I don’t know the HR person and I don’t trust the director.

Yeah, if either is tight with the boss that could backfire and make you the workplace atmosphere problem to be solved rather than the weirdly vibing boss-employee duo.
I’ve had work besties but I tell you what I never ate off the same plate with them at lunch.
I work in the family business with multiple relatives who babysat me when I was a child and I've never done that! Well, at work anyway; I don't specifically remember from the days when they babysat me...

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I agree the eating off the same plate is way past "vibes" and into hostile environment territory

Oh, that makes way more sense. What an awkward situation. Yikes.
