How to Make an Office Relationship Work

The workplace is full of single, young professionals who frequently find themselves pretty much living at the office. As a result they really do not have a lot of time to get out and make new friends, so quite often their circle of friends is their work mates. As friendships develop into romances, sometimes the situations can get complicated. If you are into an office relationship, here’s how you can make it really work.

How to handle office relationships.

The Upside of Having an Office Relationship

There are actually several advantages to working with your lover. First of all, you work for the same company, so you already have a lot in common. Since you know and work with a lot of the same people, you already have a lot of the same friends. It is also really convenient to work together, because you get to see each other frequently. You can even commute together if you choose.

Another advantage of dating a co-worker is that you already know them. You have had a chance to see how your partner relates to other people, reacts under stress and behaves in general long before you ever asked her on a date. By assessing her traits before jumping into the relationship, the cards are stacked in your favor for a successful relationship.

Ok… the Downside of Office Romances

Of course, you must also consider that there can be a few problems with this type of relationship. Sometimes, being able to see each other all day every day is a little too much constant contact. A little separate time is good for everyone, so if you work together, you will need to carve out some individual time at home.

Another potential problem is this: romance at work could actually affect your job. Think how awful it would be to have to approve a layoff that cost your girlfriend or wife her job, or vice versa! In this regard, it would be wise to make sure that you do not succumb to a conflict of interest.

Also, if your office relationship is a secret, you may have to endure the advances of other coworkers on your partner (and she vice versa). You both need to understand that you are choosing to keep your relationship private, so office flirtations will occasionally happen.

If your partner is your exact peer, there is always the chance that healthy workplace competition or promotions may actually hurt your relationship. On the other hand, if your lover is a subordinate at work, you always run the risk of sexual harassment when you fall out of favor with each other, or you may have to endure accusations of favoritism while you are together. If you choose to date your boss, accusations of favoritism may still occur, albeit you’re on the receiving end of any ‘favors’.

Lastly, know that many companies have policies that address employees who find themselves in a relationship so be sure to check them out.

Office relationships can be great, and they frequently grow into a happy lifetime spent together. You should, however, be diligent to make sure that your romance does not interfere with your work, and that your breakup, IF it should occur, can be weathered by both of you with minimal workplace damage.
