Lalania,

If you don't mind it, I'd like to give you a little friendly advice from one who has "been there, done that". The old saying is you don't sh*& where ya eat. I dated someone from work for 4 years. It was a very bad break up and I ended up leaving my job because I was humiliated (he cheated on me with one of my good friends who also worked there). Needless to say my nose was rubbed in it ever single day. My life became an open book. To say it was VERY unpleasant is putting it mildly.

The only advice I can offer you is to think about the repercussions should it NOT work out. You'd still have to work with him and it could turn out to be VERY awkward, as it did with me.

I have since learned and have kept my word not to date someone from work. It's not worth the hassle.
