>This is completely absurd. How many current great relationships would have never existed under such a rule? How many great relationships/working relationships wouldn't be ruined because of that rule? How many people wouldn't have lives and careers ruined because of that rule? Frankly if you love someone that damn much, move to a different job and avoid the potential conflicts that are involved. Good luck arguing that a boss absolutely needs the option to date a subordinate because what if a serious relationship never happens? I mean it's nice if you can pull examples out of the air when it worked out for two people. But for everyone else? What's the ratio of happy couples to victims do you need to tilt scales to one side or the other?
