My Gf works for the Airport. A job opportunity just came up at my job which pays $5 more than what she is making. She asked me to put a reume in for her. I thought at 1st it would be a good finacial move, but then I thought about it. lIVING AND WORKING TOGETHER CAN BE 2 MUCH. She is pissed now because I asked her did she think that would be healthy? The thing is I work with mostly females (and I dont have anything going on with any1) She works with mostly guys (She hasnt given me reason to belive shehas something extra going on). She just got mad and aaccused me of not wanting her to work here bcuz I have something going on. (BTW her older cousin also works with me, thats more insintve to keep my u know what to myself). What do you guys think?
P.S. I think its that time of the month for her. Is she just being extra sensitive?

i don't blame you for not wanting to work with your gf. i love my hubby but if we had to live together and work together i just might go insane cuz that would just be wayyyy to much together time and everyone needs at least a little break from their significant others. plus when i go to work it makes me miss my hubby and i can't wait to see him when i get home. im sure your gf will realize that your right and she just might be on her time of the month :)

One thing you have to do is once you leave work, you also leave work behind. And that has to happen the other way too - what happens at home, stays at home. If possible, keep your interaction at work to a minimum. Do things with different friends, and each of you has to develop your own interests, so you have some time apart. That will help make your time together special.

If you can put your personal life aside for eight hours, give it a try. My husband and I met at work and for 10 of those years, we worked together, drove to work together, had lunch together and went home together. When we got home, he watched sports on TV and I read.
We enjoyed sharing our information. He worked at that company for over 40 years and I worked there almost 30 years. When we were assigned to different departments (and for eight years, I worked in a different building), we had even more to share.
BTW, the assignment was because the company was merging and he was put in charge of his department and I was assigned where I could put my skills to the best use. It had nothing to do with how we behaved toward each other at work. (That was always professional.)
We've made it 25 years, now, and we've spent the past five years retired and in each other's faces 24/7. And we love it.
If it doesn't work out, she can go find another job. After all, you're the one with seniority, right?

If she feels comfortable working with you, I don't see why that would be a problem. I have worked with my husband for 6 years before we got married. You just have to know how to separate home from work. There were a few conflicts becuase there were men hitting on me when they didn't know that my man and I were together and guys talking about me to him as if they wanted to get with me but after a while, everyone knew we were together but we still kept home at home and work at work. It is possible to work and live together. I don't think that time of the month has a lot to do with it.

Well it depends on the two of you. I worked with my fiance for a few months (we met at work though). No problems; we did our crappy job and then went home together. I was 28 and he was 21 at the time though. We were both mature enough to know a job is just a job, not social hour. PS If you ever tell a woman she is just being overly sensitive because of PMS, she will probably kick you in the ****s. And you will have deserved it.

I don't blame you for not wanting to work in the same place as your mate, that is not a good thing. Tell her if you help her get a job there, you can't be with her anymore because you never date people you work with! That's my opinion. And really, I think it would be awful to work at the same place as your mate.

She probably doesn't like being told where she can't work. The extra money would help but I do believe living and working together would be to much.

I agree with you. I think the working together is a bad idea. You could lie and say you handed the resume for her. But that could back fire. If she were to start calling them for an answer or why they haven't called for an interview.

She'll cool down.
But seriously you do not want to live & work together!!!My roomates tried doing that and it ended very gracefully...NOT!!!He would never leave her alone and she just wanted some time to be by herself.
She no longer works with him and there back together.But you have to maintain your own life and space to be in a healthy relationship.

WELL I AM NOT MALE, AND I STILL AGREE WITH YOU,, I THINK THAT YOU WERE LOOKING OUT FOR THE FINACIAL STABILITY OF THE REALTIONSHIP. IF YOU GUYS ARE OK WITH BEING AROUND EACHOTHER THAT MUCH THEN HEY IT MIGHT BRING YOU CLOSER, BUT YOU GUYS SOULD TRUST EACHOTHER ENOUGH TO DO WHATEVER IS RIGHT FOR YOU GUYS AND THE RELATIONSHIP.. I WISH YOU THE BEST OF LUCK.
