It's very common. My friend has slept with most of hers. She even broke a couple that were together 10 years and is now engaged to him but everyone saw her as a rotten person so she quit :deadbanana4:

Yeah honestly I am surprised everyone says no I wonder if ppl are just speaking on experience. I hear it’s actually quite common for ppl to date there co-workers. I guess I just ****** up lol.

It's a mess because it'll **** up your professionalism in some way, or least be questioned. I worked for the same company as my boyfriend (accidentally) and I hid it throughout my 6 months of working there lol.

I try to have an open mind, but, sadly, I have to agree with mostly everyone on here: it's not a good idea. 

 

Unless y'all are going to get married, and even marriages end in divorce (quite frankly), there is a huge chance you two will break up. Then you have to potentially see this person EVERY day you go into work (and, even worse, see them with someone else). Even if the relationship goes super well, coworkers are GOSSIPY and will talk. 

 

Also, I saw your post about asking out your coworker and regretting that decision. If this coworker is truly your friend, you both will move past this-- just please give this person space because, while you did nothing wrong, your coworker might not have expected that turn in your work and/or platonic relationship. Wishing you the best of luck <3

The dramatics LOL. You obvi can and actually should date co-workers. Many people get to know their partners either from friends family or from work. Don't fall for the corporate propaganda that shouldn't date coworkers. The most successful bonds are those that come out of habit of seeing the person very often so work is very suitable for that.

 

My most successful relationship thus far was with a colleague from work.

 

Some of yall really gotta reflect on yallselfes. Yall keep finding dumb reasons to exclude potential partners and then complain about being lonely and single.

Please keep in mind some of us are basing our opinions off of our personal experiences, just as you are based your opinion off your own personal experience.

 

Also, OP mentioned he asked out his coworker and things got weird. Do you still wanna tell OP to get back on that horse?

 

In my personal experience, work should have never interfered with my professional life. It burned a bridge between the teacher I shared a building with, and my students could put two-and-two together (fortunately, they believed me when I wrongfully said I had no idea who the band teacher was/we never talked). Had that relationship became public, I would have been in BIG trouble by my admins., and my students would not have respected me as a professional.
