Why Dating Your Boss is a Bad Idea

Stupid question, really.Work is one aspect of your life. Dating is another.

Most people look at these two as the two sides of a coin, as mutually exclusive, and that’s the way it should be. Think of the last time you called in sick at work just so that you could go pick up a friend from the airport. Now, if you were dating your boss and she was at all good at her work, she might resent your absence from work, don’t you think?

Don’t believe me? Well, then, let me spell it out for you. You shouldn’t date your boss because:

1. Women bosses let the power get to their heads

Listen, take it from a woman–often, women make unreasonable, demanding,manipulative bosses. A woman is all nice and normal while her designation says ‘employee’. Promote her to manager and she becomes a super bi**h. After all, if she doesn’t lord it over the hoi polloi now, when next will she get the chance? Yes, she might take to you, she might even come on extra strong, but that’s only because she knows that she has the upper hand. Unless you like being the toy boy and metaphorically tied to the bedposts, don’t date a woman boss.

They say leave your work life behind you when you leave your desk. Date your boss and you will be at work all evening too. Forget her birthday and you might have to bid goodbye to a raise at the next appraisal.

Woman is like a book. You read it from cover to cover and still remain illiterate.I met many women more clever than men. So doesn't matter if she can read you and knows you better than herself, it will be ok if you have nothing to hide. Congrats
