You might even eat your breakfast at your desk, and go to a gym at work. Some of your best friends may even be colleagues. It's not surprising that dating a colleague could seem tempting.

it's almost inevitable that your love and work life may collide at some point.

After all, if you’re single, and work with other single people your age, why shouldn’t sparks fly.
