Neither of us work there anymore out of choice and our relationship had nothing to do with that. I think it can work. You are at work all day every day, chances are you are going to meet someone there. As long as the two of you don't let it affect your work in anyway then go for it. I know a few people who have met their other halves at work and it's all worked out fine. Obviously it doesn't always, life isn't perfect, but you'll never know if you don't try! Good Luck x

You don't choose who you fall for and as long as neither of you is in a long term relationship then go for it. You can always move jobs if it doesn't work out and if you are both mature about it, you could make an agreement where personal hanky panky is out of bounds at work. this can often be oK because you get rid of your steam out of working hours. Why do you think so many nurses are married to doctors and nurses to nurses etc. At a meeting recently, I met a dietician who had married the consultant who interviewed her one year later!I think a lot to do with it is the view of colleagues and bosses going out as a one off undeniable good match, or a succession of office relationships where the boss is taking advantage, so just be careful and take it very slow.

 I agree with TUX you need to change jobs before you start a relationship with your current boss. No matter how well or poor the relationship turns out, you'll never be able to enjoy your job again and get along with your co-workers as well again.

 If you want anything to become of this, look for another job and then consider him. a) you shouldn't place him in a situation where it would looks like he'd favor you over the others because this will always create bad blood in the workplace and you'd end up seeing yourself hated by the others.. B) if it doesnt work out, you'd end up finding yourself out of there to begin with as well.. That's my take on it.
