Things can get very messy. If the relationship goes bad, one or other of you will have to leave. Been there, done that. It's not good, especially in a workplace that has less than half a dozen people, and it's impossible to avoid seeing the other one all day long. Having said that, there is the situation where the workplace is pretty large and the two of you are in (or can move to) different departments. That can work quite well because you don't meet or see each other every five minutes. Been there, done that too. We're still together after 30 years.
