Will anybody admit to having an office romance?
I know that companies have rules against them but they still happen. |

I've got some funny stories about what happens behind the scenes. |

Yes. Did not work out well for me. Once the fling is over, very awkward. | | | |

I started work at this paper company and immediately had a crush on the secretary; however, she was engaged to a guy who worked in packaging. I eventually confessed my love to her, but she did not feel the same. So, I ended up transferring. It ended up that her fiance took a swing at me and was fired. She broke up with him and we actually ended up together. Last Thursday we actually got locked in The Office together. 
In all seriousness, I was dating a girl who decided to join an organization on campus that I was in charge of. We ended up breaking up but were both involved in the organization and it was very awkward for a while. |

If you are in an office relationship, you should disclose it to HR.
Even if its a one night stand? |
Some People see things as they are and say why? I dream things that never were and say why not? When I took this job I said why not Iowa State? Why not winning? Why not bowl games? Why not sell outs? Why not national respect? Why not us? Why not here? Why not the cyclone family? | |

I think allot of people here hit the nail on the head, it isn't the romance that is the problem, it is the break-up. | | | |
