Is it ok to date someone you work with?

Answer 1

depends on how hot they r on a scale of 1 to 10 8 and higher its ok

Answer 2

it depends . working together in the same company, it will allow you to know the person better and can spend time together even when working like , having lunch or dinner together and many more good reasons. however the bad reason of it, there might be some disagreement when comes to work related issues because might have a different impression image when comes to it. it does not mean working together will have the same concept when related to work. so these are the good and bad side of it. so it all goes down to a word -> mood. the reason i have is because when work gets in the way, the mood is affected and might cause a communication breakdown. as a relationship is also about communication.

Answer 3

Although, it may feel right. It's never right to date someone you work with. You are jeopardizing way too much. Your job which gives you income that supports your life. So in actuality you are jeopardizing your entire life. If you don't care about that job and don't care whether or not you get fired. Then go for it. There are plenty of guys out there... date one of those. Or quit or job and date the one that works where you do. Hope this helps. :0)

Answer 4

I think dating someone where you work is often like sh***ting where you sleep - if anything goes wrong, it can totally screw up 2 major areas of your life.

Having said that, I know a very few people who have met and married someone they work with - 2 in fact and it's a 50/50 split. In each case they worked in different department but in one case they stayed together and in the other they divorced.

Of course, it is very different to work with someone you are married to - my husband and I are an awesome team, though we work from home together.

Answer 5

depends. If the person is a subordinate or direct supervisor, the it is probably not a good idea. If it is simply a co-worker - then yes. Lets face it, a lot of us work long hours, where else are we going to meet anyone? Just be professional and discreet (and no doing it on the bosses desk)

Answer 6

It's ok, but only if you're ok with what the consequences may turn out to be. If it doesn't work out are you going to be ok with seeing this person? Possibly talking to other girls. It's hard enough when you have to go through a break up!! But to have to see them everyday. Think about that.

Answer 7

I'd strongly recommend against dating someone with whom you'll have to see regularly if the relationship doesn't work out.

If your relationship gets serious, you will become intimate on some level... emotionally, spiritually, physically. You will learn things about your partner that isn't common knowledge. Likewise, your partner will learn intimate things about you.

If the relationship ends, whether on good terms or not, imagine going to work and having to deal with this individual who knows some intimate secret about you. It will be awkward at best, and unmanageable at worst.

Good luck.

Answer 8

Probably not a good idea. If the relationship goes bad, you'll feel akward working with each other. Plus, some employers have policies against that. You both could loose your jobs. Check with your boss on employee policies.

Answer 9

There are so many reasons that make dating co-workers a bad idea that it outweighs the good by 10 to 1.

Answer 10

Yes as long as you can remember when your at work you should be working. Do forget that the less people in your business the better and longer the relationship will last.

Answer 11

well, it's great when you are together and it's horrible when you break up. i did it twice, the first time, after we broke up i swore i would never do it again. then i met my boyfriend, and i jumped at the chance to date him. i since have left the same company,that seemed to put some strain on us in the beginning, but it got much better. i am glad i took the chance, that was 2 years ago.
