7 REASONS WHY DATING YOUR BOSS MAY BE A BAD IDEA



Is your boss a fine man? Does he fit into your picture of a dream partner? If your answer to both questions is yes, then, you may be in trouble! Well, not really that kind of trouble, but we're saying, chances are that you may fall for your boss sooner or later, if you're not careful. This is something we have seen happen time and time again, even when you didn't plan for it. Because it is a work environment, you will always be interacting and working closely with your boss. And then you find yourself falling slowly for his charms. Before you realize what's happening between both of you, you have ended up in bed with him. It's too late to back out now...Well, we will help you retrace your steps before you fall completely for your boss. Here are seven main reasons why dating your boss may not be such a great idea.

*You will have problems drawing the line between your work and your love affair with your boss. And people in the office will start to notice. From the flirty looks you give yourself to the quick body contacts you make, people will
start notice to notice and that might not be easy for you to deal with it. 

* It will be hard for you to stand up for yourself the way you would have if the man you're dating wasn't your boss. Because he's always been a man you hold in high esteem and you suddenly find yourself sharing same bed with him, it will be difficult for you to look him in the eye and disagree with him on certain issues concerning your well being or interest because he's your boss. It's going to be hard for you to see him as your equal. 

*He could make life miserable for you. Yes, believe it or not, if he's angry with you, your boss could make sure he makes your work and your life really terrible. For instance, if he thinks or suspects you're seeing someone else but doesn't have a proof yet, he could start treating you badly at work. He could ignore you when you try to talk to him even in the presence of your colleagues, or out rightly embarrass you. And if you try to fight back, you could end up with a suspension or even a termination of your appointment.

*Your colleagues in the office may think lowly of you. Once they find out for sure that you're having a tango with their boss, they
begin to grow wary of you. And some, envious. Of course, some of the other ladies would wish they were in your shoes, hence envy will begin to creep in. But the real problem here is that non e of your colleagues would respect you when you get a promotion or raise in salary. In their mind, you have not earned any of that, you were only given on a platter of gold because you're sleeping with the boss. 

*You will the butt of office gossip in the office. If you're not someone who can take it when you're being talked about negatively, then don't even try dating your boss because you certainly will become the butt of cruel and dirty jokes in the office by mostly your female co-workers who secretly wish the boss had chosen them and not you. 

*Can you deal with it if your boss and lover starts flirting with a female guest, or worse still, a female colleague openly in the office? Most women in this sort of situation can't control the jealousy that takes over them. Before you know it, you realize you have become quite possessive and this could spell problem for you because your boss might not take kindly to it when you begin to lecture him on how to behave in the office and who to talk and not talk to. 

* When the romance is over, what next for you? You can be certain that people will mock you in the office, knowing the boss has had you and dumped you. And even if it turns out you dumped your boss and not the other way round, there's still a problem- the man may never forgive you. And he may just kick you out of job. So, it's always wise to be exploring other job opportunities while dating your boss because any crack in your romance could portend danger to you.
