Share your stories of successful and failed work romances

When you share the same space as your co-workers for eight hours a day, it’s no surprise that sometimes love can kindle across the desks. Whether you met your future life partner at work, or attempted a romantic gesture with a co-worker that spectacularly backfired – we want to hear your stories of successful or failed romances at work.

And what is your advice for those dating someone at work – should you do it? How can you make sure it doesn’t affect your professional life? And what’s the best way to ask a colleague out on a date? If your crush was unrequited or reciprocated – we want you to share your experiences.

We will bring together our favourites to be published on the Guardian Careers site. The contributions we pick will also be shared across our social media channels.

Share your stories, photos and videos by clicking on the blue “Contribute” button on this article. You can also use the Guardian app and search for “GuardianWitness assignments” where you can add it to the homepage to keep up with all our assignments.

  • GuardianWitness is the home of readers’ content on the Guardian. Contribute your video, pictures and stories, and browse news, reviews and creations submitted by others.
