In general good advice but the flip side is here is a group of people somewhat like you that you spend a lot of your life with. Relationships will happen. Jobs change, and it is worth getting a new job if it is the relationship of a lifetime. And there is a wrong and a right way to do it. Okay, many wrong ways. In the Navy dating was discouraged, but they couldn't stop it. Only thing that was hard and fast was fraternization issues due to difference in grade or senior/subordinate. Never really had much trouble, I did have one married couple which isn't supposed to happen. The dumb husband worked for me and the New Jersey italian wife would make her way across the hangar to rip him a new one with regularity. But mostly entertaining. And once people were married and at different commands? Best thing ever for me, way less personal outside of work issues coming out of dual military families, and often your most professional folks, usually because they were competing at home to see who advanced first.
