Dangers Of Having An Office Affair
Fooling around with your co-worker might seem to be a good idea at the time, especially if your hectic work schedule leaves you no time to have a social life.
Office flirtations and romances have become common, though they very rarely lead to something concrete. The dangers of office affairs gone wrong are well-know. Ending a relationship is hard enough, but imagine seeing your ex everyday at work. And that isn't even the worst part! However well you think you can hide it, the people at work will eventually find out about your affair. Everybody in the office will be talking about you, and the things they say probably won't be all that complimentary.
Here are a few reasons why office affairs are never a good idea.
Dating
a
Colleague
Having
an
affair
with
a
colleague
is
like
sleeping
with
the
enemy.
There
will
be
constant
rivalry,
and
you
will
be
constantly
competing
with
each
other.
Healthy
relationships
are
based
of
mutual
support
and
love,
not
competition.
A
break
up
will
only
make
matters
worse.
When
the
time
for
promotions
come
up,
things
will
definitely
get
messy.
Dating
the
Boss
In
this
case,
you
will
definitely
be
accused
of
trying
to
sleep
your
way
to
the
top.
Your
boss
will
constantly
be
charged
with
showing
favouritism.
And
if
things
go
sour,
working
under
your
ex
can
be
your
worst
nightmare.
Dating
a
Subordinate
It
will
be
considered
a
definite
abuse
of
your
powers,
if
you
sleep
with
your
subordinate.
Even
though
it
would
be
consensual,
rumours
will
start
flying
about
your
unprofessional
behaviour.
And
after
the
break
up,
what
are
the
chances
that
you
won't
be
slapped
with
a
sexual
harassment
suit?
Compartmentalise
It
is
always
preferable
to
keep
your
work
and
your
love
life
separate.
Having
everybody
at
your
workplace
analyse
and
criticize
your
relationship
will
affect
it
in
a
very
adverse
manner.
If
your
partner
gets
a
promotion
that
you
wanted,
you
will
not
be
able
to
celebrate
with
him
wholeheartedly
after
work.
If
there
are
public
displays
of
your
affection
at
the
workplace,
the
management
will
not
take
it
too
kindly.
Office
Gossip
It
will
be
a
traumatising
experience
when
all
the
office
gossip
is
directed
towards
you.
Your
professional
achievements
will
be
ignored
and
you
will
have
your
co-workers
scrutinise
your
private
life.
If
your
boss
is
swayed
by
office
gossip,
you
might
even
miss
out
on
a
promotion!
Lose
your
Job
Before
you
embark
on
an
office
romance,
you
should
evaluate
how
important
your
current
job
is
to
you.
Some
companies
have
policies
against
co-workers
dating,
so
you
might
get
fired.
Most
of
the
times,
after
the
relationship
ends,
there
might
be
numerous
uncomfortable
situations
and
confrontations
that
might
end
in
you
leaving
the
job.
Is
your
office
romance
worth
your
career?
These are the pitfalls and dangers that comes with an office affair. If you still think it will be worth it, then embark on your office romance at your own peril. You might just be the exception to prove the rule!
