this happened about an hour ago and i have not stopped replaying it since.

was deep in a long email thread with my boss, going back and forth quickly about a deadline. she signed off her message with "thanks, talk soon." i was typing fast, half distracted, finishing up a reply to my partner in another tab at the same time.

hit send on what i thought was a normal closing line. looked back at the email a minute later to double check something and saw, in full clarity, that i had typed "love you too, bye" as my closing line to my boss.

no context. no explanation. just appeared at the end of a professional email like it belonged there.

sat in complete silence for about thirty seconds. considered sending a follow up to clarify. decided that would only make it worse. she has not responded yet. it has been fifty eight minutes. i am refreshing my inbox like it owes me something.

TL;DR: accidentally signed off a work email to my boss with "love you too, bye" meant for my partner in a different tab, and now i'm waiting in dread for a response.
