- Well............ The obvious ones 1) Don't touch 2) Don't stare longingly into each others eyes 3) Try not to speak to each other, except on a professional level 4) Don't draw attention to yourselves 5) Don't EVER mention or talk about who you're dating to ANYONE at work, things get around 6) Don't call each other at work, (unless it's strictly job related) 7) Don't email, or contact by work computer, or at work email addresses Luck
- stay away from each other
- well walking around with a erection probably wont be good
- keep it away from office just ask for him to call you at home.
- well, you can't ask for personal experiences without people telling you how it blew up in their faces.
- Just keep it light and professional. No touching or flirtatious conversations--don't hang around each other unless it directly pertains to business.
- Too much unnecessary interaction would pretty much be a give away. Excessive touching, talking closely and flirting are obvious give aways.
- If you are really into the person you're dating - it's the electricity in the room.. the trying not to look at eachother, the fire when their eyes meet... the not so well hidden hidden touch.. it's the slip of the tongue about things that happen outside of work.. It's the subtle change in attitude / behavior that happens when the other person walks in the room or moves close.. But mostly, it's that "intuition" from the sparks flying around the room - have you ever been in a room with two people who are into eachother? You can feel the charge.
- I am assuming this is a hetero relationship. First, few women can keep from revealing that they are sleeping with/dating a guy...in the office or outside. Men are slightly better at it because they just draw on their jerkiness toolbox. However, one of my bosses is clearly contemplating an affair with another faculty member. Here are the signs: they mention each other randomly and speak unnecessarily highly of one another; they were talking one day and when I spoke to them, they both jumped as though they had been saying or doing something wrong when they were just discussing work; they know random things about each other and volunteer the information; there is electricity between them. I personally am not one to sh*t where I eat, but, I can't get a date at all, so you do your thang.
- That never works....but you will learn it your way.. body language that give away, the way you look at each other..... the extra attention you give him/her... the extra attention on your grooming that was not there before.. There are many things to list here but anyone who works in the same office will notice even the slightest difference in your routine... You can almost touch the hormones in the room when romance is in the air...
- the ONLY way to keep the office from knowing is to never get into it. ok that said, you're asking about body language? so is this a discussion between the 2 of you? or is this your own little pipe dream and you're wondering if it can or will happen? now back to the lecture, the 1st thing to consider is, is she a superior, or are you? 2nd thing, does the company have a policy against office romance, if so DEFINITELY re-think the situation, it could cost you BOTH your jobs. 3rd thing, experience tells us that its NEVER a good idea to get into these things, because its like a pass in the NFL, only 3 things can happen, and 2 of them are BAD!! 4th thing, sexual harassment is running rampant, and you may be setting yourself up for disaster, or she may be setting you up.
- It's hard to make it work, and your coworkers will lose respect for you. You'll probably think that you're being discreet, but trust me, it won't be discreet. If you're sure he's the guy for you, I'd start sending your resume out. It will make the relationship much easier to manage.
- to secret...it has to be a secret...discreit encounters... little or no touching in the office...try to remain professional...and above all, no sex on the boss's desk....
- keep your personal life at home and your professional life at work....simple.be mature about your relationship,no need for body language give aways as long as you are confidant in yourself and your relationship.but take heed to my first suggestion and you should have no problems.
- no sex.
- It's only once a week! Act like professionals once a week. Seems the least you could do for the one who pays you.
