What are the rules of engagement if you are having an affair at the office? Well, it depends! Some people like to keep it as private as possible. They avoid kissing eachother in public and avoid getting physically close at the office or any office functions. In addition, they try not to be seen together at places that are close to the office (such as cafeterias or restaurants). In order to protect their reputation, they try to preserve their professional manner and keep their personal and professional lives as separate as possible. Other people are so comfortable with their new relationship and confident with its good prospects, that they dive right in and tell everyone in the office. They are more open about their feelings and clear on the fact that their love for each other will not affect their performance or influence their career in a negative way. Obviously, the choices you make are totally up to you.
