It’s only bad if one of you isn’t single or if you like your job and don’t want to risk losing it. Work relationships are 50/50 on whether they will work or not. It’s best to keep your personal life separate from your work life but only you can decide that. I had a few work romances through the years , some were ok and some were not so ok , so I decided to stay clear from work romance as much as possible especially these days , because I like my job and I don’t need anymore drama at my job. Work romances usually brings drama to the table. I am Not saying I wouldn’t do it again , but definitely not on my priority list , unless I meet a girl that makes me melt lol
Is it risky? Yes it is…. But is it worth the risk? You have to decide for yourself. I would never recommend having casual relationships with your coworkers or just dating them to date them. If you do that’s on you but if you genuinely truly like someone…. Maybe they are the one.
That’s a decision you have to make. If you like him enough date, take it slowly, and see where it goes if anywhere at all. If you just don’t feel the sparks for him then don’t waste either of your time and break it off.
I agree work romances can be messy but at the same time if you truly want someone give it a chance.
As long as you're both SINGLE and registered it properly with HR, you should be fine. It's when shady stuff is involved that everything falls apart.
Personally, I've set up a Terms and Conditions contract for core team members working with/for me not to be involved with other core team members; it's considered a conflict of interest.
Yeah. You have to know what the policy is. BUT there should be a caveat if you both report it to HR and are above board, consenting professionals. (Personally, I don't recommend an at-work relationship. It's different from meeting someone in class or something... your professional reputation often ends up hanging in the balance at some point... It's not something I'd ever risk bc I'm responsible for a lot at work and at home.)
Lol. Guys will always try. I can't really blame them. But the gal tends to set the tone of what an association will be (romantic, friendly, professional, etc.).
Only if you didn't value your career or if your job was really crappy then I would go for workplace romance.
But making 190k a year at my job as a nurse, I love my job. I would never endanger my high paying precious job just for some romance fling. Its hard as hell to find another job as well paying and laid back as this.
No it's not bad to have a work romance, as long as you're both single. There is no "wrong" scenario to find love. If you find your ideal partner at a funeral, are you just gonna be like "Well it's a funeral, so wrong time and place, oh well." No... get their contact and communicate with them at a better time later.
Don't be a sheep that says "He's perfect! ... But he works with me, so nope."
The bad part about that is. When you break up it seems like 1 person always gets fired or leaves. So if you like your job I would say it's not a good idea
@Simslover92 Discussed this with a friend two nights ago. Had four affairs at work. Three outside the department and one with a girl I worked directly with in my office. Never failed to blow up in my face.
After moving to California, worked at McGaw Laboratories, and soon after starting there, went to a Happy Hour with "the girls"... after closing in the parking lot, a girl in the office, standing with me in the darkened parking lot put her hand down my pants and I IMMEDIATELY backed away. No way to start a new job, even though I was tempted to pursue her..... It was always a bad decision to do that at work... for me at least.
Well we spend a lot of time at work and don't have a lot of free time outside of work. So where are you gonna meet people and really get to know them?
Is it smart? Well it can be risky depending on the maturity level of the two people involved. Do you want to come to work everyday after a breakup and get the cold shoulder from the guy you were fucking until two weeks ago?
Is it dangerous? Well if you're peers in different departments you're likely safe. If it's a manager and subordinate thing, "DANGER WILL ROBINSON".
With all that said, can it be the chance of a lifetime? Should you let a great person slip away because of a job? One or both of you can always get another job. It may be harder to replace a person you could possibly end up spending the rest of your life with.
Like everything in life, there are no risk free, simple answers. Evaluate the situation and make a decision.
Once upon a time I worked at a large defense contractor, Raytheon. We had about 3,000 employees. There was this young 20 something guy who was apparently dating this young 20 something girl both of them maybe 3 years out of college. I didn't really know either of them but had seen them in the hallways.
The parking lot was huge. I lived close enough to walk home but this one day my cousin who also worked there offered to give me a ride. So we get in his car and this guy who's romantically involved with this girl is parked none to nose with my cousin's car. We're just shooting the shit about our day and getting ready to get in a long line of cars waiting to exit the parking lot at end of day.
All of a sudden the girl shows up and she be pissed about something. She starts screaming at the guy. No response. He just looks straight ahead and doesn't respond. She starts beating on his window. The glass doesn't break. He remains unresponsive, won't roll the window down. She starts kicking his door and fenders. He remains calm and cool and gently reverses out of his parking spot and slowly rolls into the line waiting to exit the parking lot. She's out of control now. She runs to her car, backs out of her parking space and buries her right foot in the gas pedal. She smashed into his car at maybe 30-35 mph. By now, maybe 200 people are witnessing this fiasco.
Never found out what the outcome was or even what the drama was all about. But... note to self about workplace romance, ROFL.
I dated girls from work before and even met a couple of my girlfriends there.
I know people who met at work and got married.
Businesses didn't have rules about that when I was dating. As long as you kept it professional and didn't let a relationship interfere with your job, it was okay.
Work and school are actually good places to meet people.
It's not bad, just risky and could cause a "conflict of interest".. Companies usually don't wanna risk any fall that would come with that.. But that depends on if you guys even work in the same department.. Then there's not much to it..
Love is a wonderful thing & when it comes to romance in the work place a lot of companies prohibit it or frown upon it. If your work romance doesn’t work out & you still have to work with the person good luck.
@Simslover92 usually in my lifetime, someone either quits (usually after they'd gotten a better job or other job elsewhere) and then it's no longer a conflict of interest to use the terminology 🙂🤩
Now yes. You have to prepared to lose your job. Recently a big office tower was demolished and there was a piece in the newspaper about how many marriages happened from guys and girls working together in it. Past times.
It kinda iss yess... I used to enjoy just flashing my Puss to my guy co worker by opening my legs in my pencil skirts... showing my pussy lips and opening the wettt lips under the desk... got me offffff
