Just when you thought your workplace couldn't get more boring, Mr. Clooney-look-a-like winked at you when walking by the photocopier. Hmmm, just an innocent wink, or has he noticed you eyeing him in those amazingly perfect fitting dress pants? A little office hanky-panky might be just what you desire to get through an endless day of paperwork and meetings, but before you have a rendezvous in the supply closet, brush up on your office romance etiquette and see ELLE's list of pros and cons. Our two Toronto-based relationship experts, Dr. Rebecca Rosenblat (aka Dr. Date) and Lori Denis, give tips and office romance etiquette advice.
PROS:
1.
"You get to check out the goods before you take them home," says Rebecca Rosenblat. No ladies, not just the goods you look at, but mood swings and behavioral patterns, too.
2.
You get to know his whereabouts. "You don't have to worry about what he's doing with the cute girl in accounting, since you are already in the know," says Rosenblat.
3.
Playful perks. When no one's watching, you get to share a glance, or brush hands in the elevator. It makes that boring desk job fun when you are bumping into your cutie.
4.
Dressing up for work as a new meaning. "Your stilettos are bound to hurt his neck more than your back!" says Rosenblat.
5. "It feels like high school, lunch dates, stares across the room, love notes ... " says Rosenblat. Ahh, to be 16 again.
