Romance Isn't Dead - It's Alive and Well in the Workplace

VISTA, Calif., Feb. 21, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Despite the cramped conditions and unflattering fluorescent lights, the typical office space can be a hotbed for meeting your significant other. With most people now spending 50 hours a week at work, there are not many free hours available to meet that special someone. An inter-office romance can be dicey, so follow some tips to avoid a bumpy road.

Tips for a successful inter-office romance:

• The first step is making sure you only pursue other singles. Some harmless flirting with those poor married folks is okay, but that's it!
• Been flirting with Mike in payroll but he hasn't asked you out? Some people are very shy about office romance, so take the initiative!
• Not sure if Sally in Marketing is the right one for you, try the "it's just lunch" concept and gather a group of like-minded individuals for an inter-office lunch and see how she interacts with everyone, including you.
• Keep it casual. You never know if things will work out with an office romance, so set some simple ground rules from the start so if the relationship ends, there are no hard feelings.
• Copiers can be used for more than printing the quarterly report! Let your imagination run wild and print up some interesting inter-office memos to each other.
• Need to keep your office romance quiet? Be smart about it. Don't drive to work together and park in the company lot! Smooching sessions in the elevator are also fraught with danger. Keeping it secret is smart for your careers and can add a bit of danger and spice to the relationship.
• Don't hit the "All Company" email address when you call her "Snoogy Snookums." It's best to keep your work emails and chats rated PG. In fact, it's probably best to avoid personal messages in work e-mails.  Save your sexy messages for home.  
• Limit your group trips to the supply closet. If both of you are required to get supplies and it takes 25 minutes to retrieve paper clips and pens, you might raise some suspicions.
