Would you have an affair with a coworker?

I've never had an affair with a co-worker but that is how I met my husband, was at work! :) How about you?

Since I am married, I would not have an affair anywhere. If I were single, I would never have an office romance. Not swift.

Yes I had affair with my co worker and my experience is that its good as long it continues but the moment there is a break up its a very awkward situation for both of us.

I go by the age old antic of "never crap where you eat"... meaning having a romantic tryst of any type in the place of employment will only mess your life up for the most part. One bad moment, one big fight, one "hard feeling" and your daily life becomes turmoil. No thanks. I personally keep my social and work life separate.

I am married so no I wouldn't have an affair with a co-worker plus I work at home anyway. I don't think I'd date a co-worker even if I wasn't married though and worked out of the home cause if you end up breaking up then you have to see that person every day.

I would never do anything like this as I am married and do not believe in having affairs . If I was intersted in someone else then I would first let my husband know about this as it would not be fair to him , if I was thinking about being with someone else weahter in the office or anywhere in life .

Would love too. Infact I have some one in mind already. The only trouble is that she is at a higher postition in the company then I am. Got any suggestions ?

never as everone would find out,

Been there done that -Not once but twice (Slow learner). It didn't work out in either case. It was fun but very risky and One was married. I hated being the other woman and have never ever done that again. Uggggh talk about regrets!. But I have seen others that have worked out wonferfully and more power to them. I made a rule and haven't ever broken it again. Nope uh uh not me...never never again.

lol...it is a nice discussion,and i want to say my boyfriend is my colleague.he came to our company for earlier than me,and when i joined in here,i did not have more feeling to him.but some months later,we knew each other,and was good friends.then some months later,i found i fall in love with him,maybe he thought so .then i became his girlfriend.now we are in a same room but everything is nice.lol...

Well I'm married so that part makes it a no to any affair. But if I as single I don't think I could have an affair with someone I worked with. If things would go bad you'd have to see that person everyday.

if I could choose, I would not have any love affair with a person I work with...it is always difficult mixing work and love together because if you have a quarrel and you work together, you have to spend the whole day with him even though you wish you could break his head and you are angry with him...and moreover there is the fact that this love affair is always creating a lot of rumours in the office...I am very shy and I don't like people talking about my private affairs...I could not avoid this if I had my love where I work...moreover if something goes wrong, you end up with having to see your ex every given day..it is awful!!!

I don't feel it's ever smart to get involved with someone you work with. So no I wouldn't.

Yes- I would have an affair with a co-worker as long as i know that the person is single and has good moral values. I will just make sure that I will put a barrier between my personal and professional lfe.

I would and I have..I worked somewhere and this guy and I always made it our business to be around each other in some way..we would stare each other down and flirt until one day I just gave him my number..so eventually at work one day we kissed and decided to take our "understanding" out of work...that was three years ago..and to this day, we still have an "understanding" and see each other at least 6 times a month..

I have had an affair with a coworker in the past and it was nice, though things did not work out and we remain close friends. As long as they are not your boss, I do not see anything wrong with having a romance with a coworker.

I did once in the past, and I don't recommend anyone do it. I felt like I had to change jobs when we got serious because it was uncomfortable seeing him every day. I changed jobs and then we later broke up, but I'm glad we weren't working together still when we broke up.

I think affairs are wrong. I would not have a relationship with someone who was married or with someone if I was married. I did have a huge crush on a married guy I worked with when I was in college. He had a huge crush on me too. But, that was all it was. Some harmless flirting and picking. His wife did call me once to babysit for their baby and that was a little weird. She even told me that night that she knew her husband had a huge crush on me.

If, by affair, you mean an illicit one (one or both of us are married to other people), no. I'd never cheat on a partner/spouse. If both of us are available, I'd possibly do it. But I'd have to feel a lot more than just physical attraction towards the other person. Also, I'd only do it after getting to know the other person really, REALLY well, because it could be very awkward when the relationship ended, which statistically it's prone to do. I know I could carry on working at a place after the breakup of an office romance, but I don't know how the other person would handle it, and that's why I'd think very carefully about doing it.

Sometimes it's not a question of would but instead should. Should you have an affair with a co-worker. Generally the answer is no. Most business actually have policies against it. If you share a mutual attraction with a co-worker then possibly following up on the relationship out of work is one thing, but carrying on an office romance is usually viewed as unprofessional. Not to mention if there was ever a fall out between you and your co-worker it could disrupt yours and others works environment due to the tension, bitterness, heartbreak, etc. The idea has however been tempting in many situations. Just becareful and look before you leap. Way the pros and cons of an affair with a co-worker.
