Here are some of the rules for dating your co worker

Not everyone in the office need to know you are dating, it would make some coworkers uncomfortable

As long as all parties are okay with moving forward, you may decide to take the plunge. That doesn’t mean you should go public with your new relationship at work. It could make your coworkers uncomfortable.

Set some rules and limits in the work space

Decide how to proceed at work. For example, will you try to keep your romance a secret or will you let others know about it? Will you avoid arriving at work together or leaving at the same time? Do you plan to share your lunch breaks?

Don’t Let Your Feelings Get in the Way of Doing Your Job

If you and your partner are also subordinate and boss, there’s some trouble ahead. It’s a tall order, but don’t let your feelings for one another influence how you do your job. If you can’t follow this rule, you may find yourself looking for a new place of employment and a new partner.
