Would You Date Someone In The Same Office?
« on: April 05, 2007, 02:21 PM »

in my place of work, it aganist the company for any sort of intimate relationship to take place be it hetrosexual or homosexual Grin
i just wonder if we are missing anything because for me i feel that if i date someone in the office i will easily get bored.
since i get to spend the better part of the day with that person in the office, they wont be much to discuss in our private moments, we may even have the same circle of  friends.
wont that make the relatiionship boring?

Just like ma guy Chuckdee has said don't DO IT.

The thing is you see each other too often, when you break up, u still see each other.

Not really adviceable, don't DO IT.

for me, it will suurely b boring!

The problem with having a relationship at work is that most relationships don't end amicably.
When you break up with her because she slept with your other colleague, it will cause problems in the office!

Yeah.  I don't think it's wrong, but it probably won't be easy.  Unless you are the boss.  Wink

Rule number 1 don't have sex where you work!
Complicates everything. Besides very few office romances make it to the alter.

u may not be collecting the same salary.
@ seun
i guess my grouse is really about the break up part. u still get to see each other anyway i don't think that will be very comfortable for either party especially if the break up is messy Cry
@ spoilt
make love in the office? Shocked
do people do that?
guess not unless u r d boss and can shut ur door without raising eyebrows abi?
to me i just can't imagine dating my colleague

If ur beginning to have feelings for someone at ur work place and u really want to try things out with him, my advice would be that one of u find another job because u'll be seeing them everyday, every night n they will be no more Yourself time, no matter how fine a person is, too much of anything just aint good

Personally i wont date someone in my office, i work in a large corporation and when i got here initially there were enough advances at me but my mind was made up on that (personal reasons), but so many people in my office are married and to me they act kind of weird to each other,they pass by each other on the stair case, don't seat together in the staff bus and act weird. You will have to be told they are married before you can tell, what a life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I want an exciting marriage were i will be looking forward to seeing my husband after work everyday, not wake up together, catch the bus together, be at the office all day together and end up at home again, am sorry but to me thats boring and i will surely get tired.

@seun

lol!

i hear that they are levels of 'feelings'   u have a crush and d rest.but we also do have deep feeling which goes beyond admiration for some people,what if what u feel for this person is deep admiration?

i haven't been faced with such and pray i will not because i will really be at cross road.

the worst that can happen really is to feel an unrequited love!

It for those who can seperate the emotional entirely from business -which many can't do Undecided.
Apart from break up- even while on only few can be uptight about managing both.

Like you don't expect to be scolded b'because you are sleep with your boss or you wont want to complain about her rudeness to a collegues because she is cooking your dinner. Or she hurts you in bed so you would pay her back in the office.or she come to you office and you prefer to leap over the desk loving up.

Safe word stay off: because it rarely turns out well!

i can though Grin

If "feelings" of what you want and what u Desire doesn't worth Sacrificing some things over, why do u study all this years in order to attain a certain position or hight in life.

I tell you all if this my "feelings" will cost me just my job and not my life, i will go the extra miles.

My prayer is for this Girl that am ready to give up some thigz for will really do feel the same way i so for Her.

@ spoilt

Please tell me, Should i just fold my hands and watch myself and my feelings die down without taking a single step at least to prove the man am made of for the woman i really have deep feelings for?

i don't think i can just sit and watch.
