My friend landed her Dream role, through her ex

They say you shouldn’t mix personal and professional lives, and honestly, I believed in it until her (let's call her Anjali) things turned

A little backstory: Anjali and her ex ended things on good terms. No drama, just two people who realized they were better off as friends. After the breakup, they stayed in touch occasionally — exchanging memes, random updates, and sometimes chatting about work since they’re in the same industry.

Fast forward to a few months ago: she was stuck in a career rut, interviewing but not getting anything. That’s when her ex messaged her out of the blue. He’d joined a new company and said, “Hey, there’s an vacancy here that has you written all over it.” He’d already passed on her profile internally, and they were impressed. She was ofc hesitant, but the role (and pay) were good.

Lucky thing, she landed the role. What really hit me was when she told me that he texted her after she got the offer: “Told you you’d crush it. Proud of you!” (Such a cutie tbh)

I doubt if I can be so mature like her, and also god give such current and ex to everyone 😂

Don't need to date people to help them out. I've hired people through dating apps and referred them for jobs too. Helping someone with their livelihood is one of the most meaningful things one can do for someone imo.

Just referring someone and saying good things fascinate people nowadays, strange.
