Forbidden Love; Corporate Love











Some people just find the office setup and suits sensual and so they cant be able to resist getting into relationships in the corporate scene.

But this relationship is a forbidden love that needs to be fought for.
This love is tied down by corporate and ethical policies.
 It is so hard to see and be with each other the whole day having to hide how you feel towards each other.

                    Boss - Employee

When someone's job is to do their best to impress a superior, they go out of their way to be the best at it. It becomes so easy then to develop a connection between the one being impressed and the one doing the best to please the other. Hence they find themselves in a relationship they hadn't even planned for.

The downside:

The boss has to always try so hard to treat the employee, who doubles as the partner, non-discriminatively. It is just so frustrating.
The employee finds it hard to relate with fellow employees and is often in opposing sides with them.
And we all know what they say; mixing business and pleasure just spells trouble.

The open window:

The only way this can work is if either the employee or the boss leaves. One of them either has to go to another department or company.
They have to cut anything that gives them the direct boss-employee relationship. That's the only way they could break from their forbidden love.

                                 Colleagues



This really hot someone works by your side five days a week, always so good at it..,there's just an air of mystery about this person. You really get drawn to this someone and you suddenly have this pressing need to uncover this mystery that seems to always baffle you.

The downside:

You relationship might end up being quite boring and dry since when you want to talk about each other's days, it's monotonous and far from different. You easily get tired of each other very fast.
It gets hard to work when your better half is right there, it is hard to concentrate and you always have to keep looking over your shoulder to observe your partner's reaction.

The open window:

A relationship is more interesting when there is diversity. When the partners are so much alike, the relationship is at risk of becoming boring.This couple therefore should try to kill the uniformity.
One of them could switch companies, departments, offices, branches or even go to a totally different line of business.

                   Competing firms


There's just something about the person on the other side that is so intriguing and attractive....the forbidden fruit tastes the sweetest. 
It's often hard to resist and we end up finding ourselves in this awkward relationship with the competitor often referred to as the enemy by the company.

The downside:

It's hard to be free with your partner as you might easily be termed as a traitor or a mole in the company.
You find it hard being open with each other as you are both trying to be careful with your words so you don't end up revealing the company's secrets to the enemy.
It eventually becomes hard to talk to each other since you can't share with each other how your days were because then you'll have to talk about work.
Anytime the other company comes out on top you feel like you are somehow involved due to your relationship.
There is the temptation of using your partner as a means to an end so your company could end up on top of your partner's.

The open window:

You can't have a relationship where you consider yourselves as competitors, you are just gonna end up competing with each other in the relationship. You have to find a way of getting out of that situation of being competitors.  One partner needs to go to a different unrelated company for their love sprout.

So today i’mma share some of the phrases you’ve probably already heard and tell you exactly what they mean; I have a… It might seem harmless and just like someone is being super honest with you.. but are they really.. they are just being direct and sending a signal that they are really uninterested and see nothing happening there.   It's like putting up the walls before you have a chance to slip through them… setting up boundaries.. I don’t need your money.. Ideally when someone says this, they really mean that they want you to listen to them and understand them, their likes, their favourites. Instead of giving them money, they want you to do something thoughtful for them. It could be something like ordering a taxi for them instead of giving them money for the cab. They wa...
