Most people have already learned of the office romance that the “Late Night” King, David Letterman, had taken part in. Although some office romances work, it seems that others lead to nothing but problems. In fact, David Letterman’s wife worked for him on his show for years before they were married. This is a case in which an office romance worked out.

For most people, the most important areas of their lives is work and love. For some people, they spend so much time at work that it seems hard to look for a love partner somewhere else. So this brings up the question, why do so many companies ban lovers working together? Why is dating someone at work a bad idea?

Experts say that office romances are a bad idea and, most of the time, only lead to trouble. Although this is not new dating advice, this is advice that has recently been brought into the spotlight. Some experts have taken it a step further and given examples on why dating someone from work is not a good idea.

First of all, there is a potential for abuse, and this goes double when dating a boss. If an office romance is started with a boss, and the employee soon finds out that they no longer want to date their boss, they have just set themselves up for some very rough days at work.

Next, an office romance can make other workers feel uneasy. When two people love each other, they tend to treat each other differently. At work, this can lead to favoritism and, thus, make other workers jealous or uneasy. Not only can it hurt the company, but it can hurt the relationship.
