Let's talk about it for a minute...it seems as of late, soo many people in my office are hooking up. And no, not "hooking up" but dating (but there is also a whole lot of hooking up going on, especially when there is an office party). There is a string of office romance in this place, but what do we think about it? Is office romance taboo as it was so many years ago, or has it become commonplace and acceptable since we workaholic young people spend majority of our day in the office with the same people?
I heard an alarming statistic that some 65% of people meet at work. How does that work if you're not supposed to date people you work with? I have a theory that it's a somewhat misleading statistic...you can meet someone at work then move to work somewhere else but stay in contact, so while you met them at work, you don't work with them any longer. Just a thought.
But, personally, I don't think I could date someone I work with. I am the type of person who needs my personal space and having to spend the day in the office with that person as well as traveling to and from work with them in conjunction with spending after work time with them, might just drive a sista nuts! I prefer to keep my romantic life and professional life separate. As for everyone else...date co-workers at your own risk!
