well i've had that experience before working with my partner. It's a good feeling that you're secured because you know the whereabouts of your partner at work but sometimes when your partner gets too observant of you at work it also feel uncomfortable. it was little uneasy for me before because the relationship i had in the office is not allowed. it's a supervisor-subordinate thing. did you ever had a relationship at work? what are it's pros and cons?

well yes i guess these are the complexities of being in a love relationship with your superior at work, or your subordinate at work. People around you at work is always on the look out for what your actions will be. That's why whether you're in a relationship or not you should always remember to act professionally. and both of you should know the consequences of getting involved.

well not everyone can but some does. If you are true professional in your work you'd know when to deal with personal issues with your partner and when to deal with the professional ones. It's i think a matter of discipline. when you're at work, it doesn't mean you'd stop loving the person at that point, but you work as professionals and you deal with relationship issues after work.

All kinds of the two opposite gender get attracted to each other. This is natural tendency. Now may it be school or work place or any sort of classes or the place where you reside. It is a but natural phenomenon. But there is a difference between work place and other place. Here first of all we get less time to think of love or any other thing not related to work. Even though if you get into love, and if it bychance gets leaked to one or two it will spread like a fire in the jungle and your love might be no more personal, this is one of the reasons why people try to keep away from relations like love at work places.

Relationships could work everywhere, even at a workplace as long as you both prioritize your job first before your relationship at work. One should know how to control his/her feelings in a workplace most especially if they do both have an argument.
