b. A possiblity. I'm neither averse to it, nor am I desperately waiting for it to sweep me off my feet.

c. Too complicated and messy. There are lesser chances of it working out, and then things will only get worse.

2. If and when you do hook up with someone at work, your co-workers:

a. Will be the first to know. And they'll never hear the end of it. There's nothing lovelier than celebrating love with all the people you see every day, right?

b. Would be let in on the news, only in case of a “serious” commitment.

c. Won't realise that anything is ever on between you and said person, even when you guys get hitched.

3. Going out with a co-worker means a better shot at making a relationship work. Right?

a. Bingo! Bang on… Considering the amount of time we spend with each other in comparison to other couples, and the fact that we understand each other's professional avatars much better as well.

b. Not really. There are a zillion other factors that make a relationship a success or a failure.

c. On the contrary, it's more likely to go kaput. We'll end up bringing personal matters in professional space, and vice-versa. And we'll be left with no space in the relationship, and soon enough, no relationship at all.

The verdict

Mostly As: You're a rose-tinted-glass-sporting optimist if ever there was one. Mayve it's time to get those shades off for a while and get realistic.

Mostly Bs: You seem mature enough to handle an office romance. Go for it!

Mostly Cs: It's time to throw cynicism out of the window and bring back the ol'-fashioned faith. Live a little, love a little
