Too obvious!

One of our young female staff has been the subject of gossip at work. Why?
She is in a "secret" relationship with one of our male staff. They both have their significant others but staff at work noticed something is brewing between the two.
At first, I thought they were just teasing them until I saw something with my own two eyes.
It's never against the rules to have a relationship with a co-worker because we have hired couples in the past. So I don't really care much what they do as long as it doesn't affect their work.
However, their co-workers couldn't stop talking about them coz they kept denying the obvious!

@LadyDuck They would stop anyway, the moment these two would stop denying and just admit the obvious. The thing that makes people around them talk more is that they kept denying. And even if I saw them brushed each other hands softly, they till lied about it.

@toniganzon - This is sadly true. They are only happy if they can gossip about someone they know.

@toniganzon That is true too--especially if it is THAT obvious.

If they don't want others to talk about them, they shouldn't have given them any reason to in the first place.

Yep. It's their life and if they don't want to be in a messy situation they better straighten things up.
Co-workers have been telling them to just admit they they're together but according to them, nothing is going on. And the female staff said she'd never leave her guy.
Can't blame the co-workers for gossiping coz they're giving them reasons to.

Same. Already warned the female staff that she should focus on her job and not get distracted.

Couldn't care less but I already told the female staff that she better concentrate on her work. She's the one who easily gets distracted.

I can understand why the gossip started, especially if their coworkers noticed something was going on and then watched both of them repeatedly deny it. People tend to become even more curious when something seems obvious but everyone involved insists otherwise.

I totally agree. If they just admitted hit upfront, for sure, people around them will have nothing to talk about anymore.
