Getting it On at Work

[kitkat826]

Do any of you have any stories of work flirtations/affairs/hookups gone bad?

 

I am considering it myself and would love some dirt on other people's experience before I take the plunge myself.

I did it twice. Neither time worked out, and I regret them both. Two people where I work now just got married. I think it's something to be very careful about, but I know better. When you really want to be with someone, there aren't many "practical" matters you'll let stand in your way.

Johan -

 

Were these relationships or casual situations?

As difficult as they are to avoid, I definately recommend doing so. It can make going to work a lot of fun.....but it can also make it hell.....

did it twice..one worked out very well, one worked out real badly. they were both boyfriends, the first one i went out with for 6 months, then he quit and got a better job in another state. we tried to do long distance, but we never saw each other cause he worked so much so we broke up. i kind of wonder what would have happened if he would have stayed. i probably would have ended up in the same situation i did with my other ex bf i worked with.

 

the other relationship was a guy who i only went out with for 2 months, but we were a horrid couple and had a real bad breakup. i had to see him every freaking day and pretend to be nice to him, when i really wanted to kick him in the "u know where."

 

my advice: sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesnt. if u think that its worth the chance than go for it, but just think about how incredibly bad it could be to get involved with someone, have a horrible breakup, and then have to work with them day in and day out and pretend to be nice to them. its not easy, BELIEVE me. i seriously dont recommend it, there are a ton of other fish in the sea who u dont work with.
