working with your partner

[Sone]

My sister and her fella work together. Both teachers so don't see much of each other and manage to sneak off on all school trips from what i gather.

all previous office relationships i've had have ended, mainly due to not having a break from each other.

I worked in the same company as my ex gf for four years. It was a small company AND we lived together for two of them.

It was very difficult at times, of course it's going to be. The relationship ended because she kept making noises about kids, not because of work. But basically you can make it work if you both really want to - as with anything.

I wouldn't want to work with my wife. Would be constantly worrying about things I say getting back to her, and vice-versa (nothing sinister but you know, like you're having some harmless chat about things that annoy you in your home life or whatever). You'd also, depending on what exactly you are each employed to do, potentially have conflicts of interest at times, or at least leave yourself open to accusations of nepotism.
