Romantic relationships with work colleagues

[SextinaAquafina]

Has anyone here tried to pursue a romantic relationship with someone they worked with and become more than just coworkers?
How did things work out for you?

I only came across two olds threads like this from mybb (here and here).

Don't do it

 

[Cius]

I have not. But I have worked with 3 couples now who met through work and are still happily married. If its the right person I think it would trump a job even if it goes south. If its a casual fling I would not recommend it.

Don't schit where you eat...

I would advise against this 9 times out of 10. It can work, but if it doesn't, it's a mess.

 

[Gabe Owner]

I have. Its a cluster****! Stay away!

It never works. If you have a crush on someone at work, keep it as just that, A crush.

Yeah you got a fresh perspective.

You hound

I worked with 2 people who got together via work. Kept it hush at first, but eventually everyone knew. I've since left that company, and although they've broken up once, they got back together, and now 6 or so years later are still together.

@azbob and @I.am.Sam also had a bit of a fling but it ended pretty quick

Only if you're doing it at the water cooler and allowing your colleagues to take turns

Remember work is where we go to exchange ideas and keep our bodily fluids to ourselves.


At least, that’s what HR keeps telling me.

So you want to bang the boss?

Had a colleague and good mate at the time get pissed and hit on the big bosses wife at the year end function. Didn't end well, eventually fired for menial "transgressions".

 

[Moosedrool]

Just a no strings attached casual sex for around 4 months. She was technically a corporate customer so I'm not sure if that counts.

 

[Grubscrew]

Don't dip your pen in the company ink.

 

[s0lar]

Had a thing with the bosses secretary in my 20s. Fortunately she left before the relationship fell apart.

It worked pretty well while we were on good terms.

This is going to be good.
