People indulging in office romance.

I have 2 friends who used to teach at the same school. School rules do not allow them to have a relationship, they both are new teachers, if they want a relationship (marriage) then one of them must quit from school. Finally, after teaching for 6 months they decided to quit from school. They just got married two months ago and they are teaching again in same school but no rules against them now in this new place. They are very happy now, I'm sure. I still do not understand why there are rules that prohibit workers/officer to build relationships if they can maintain professionalism?

as much as possible I avoid these types of influences, I worry about my work instead. Work first before romance because I still need to make plenty of money before I get into a serious relationship. Everything has to be in order or planned properly so you won't regret it in the future.

I have had 2 office relationships. I sure am was not able to mix up whatever i do at work and do not let it interfere with what i have to do. He works in IT and i work in operations. My other ex was well i had to transfer to another company at the time i met him hehe so we weren't able to be together in the same workplace for a long time. Oh well I think it is not really that inappropriate to have met someone in the office. What's going to be inappropriate is when you both are being inappropriate during office times!

Hey , good evening dear Varunkrisna007 , hmm thinking back , i used to have just once , the type of "office romance " wich had two years later end it up in a full marriage , and its has been now over five years since we've been togheter , altough , we had both changed the work place. Have a nice evening dear mylloter friend VARUNKRISHNA007 HosmanF.

I had one in the past. We dine together, he waits for me to finish my work and then he'll drive me home. We say 'i miss you' sometimes we give each other a quick peck on the lips but we we're never officially became an item. It lasted for three to four months and when I left the company, so was the 'relationship' we once had. I think it just depends on the two people involved. If you are both single, I see nothing wrong with that. Just go with the flow and follow your heart as long as you're not hurting anyone.

Yes, I have observed the same in our work place. In my recent job, the boss' executive assistant and my co-officer are romantically involved. Both of them are married and with kids; my co-officer's wife is working in Canada, while the husband of the executive assistant is living elsewhere (they are like separated but not annulled). They say that the co-officer used his influence to advance in the organization, I'm not sure but I think what they're doing is really wrong. First of all, office romance doesn't really work at all. IIf they are really intent on keeping the relationship, then one of them has to go. Secondly, it is unfair to both their spouses and children. They are there to work, and not to engage themselves in extra-marital affairs. They have their own families to feed. They have their own commitments to take care of.

Hey i support your thoughts too. People have started to create relationships at office also so much so that they have turned the work place as the place of romance and all. They have brought all the personal stuffs in to the professional world which is absolutely intolerable. i have also heard about office romance but this is very much bad as far as the progress of an individual and a company overall is concerned. This should always be kept at check so that such things can be avoided at office and a decorum can be maintained always. What say?
