Would you date someone you have a professional relationship with?

Which do you need more, income or a date with him?

In the unlikely situation that I was the personal trainer for someone I fancied, if he asked me, I'd suggest either a different trainer or a different date.

If you want to date him, I think that's okay. However, you might want to consider not being his fitness trainer anymore to avoid any scandals of sorts.

You're probably not going to be his client when you're done. Decide if it's worth it.

Too many variables for me to say yes or no for myself. But I certainly wouldn't rule it out. 🤷‍♂️

In this day and age of harassment policies though, I'd suggest you check yours, if you're working for a company. If you're self-employed, then ask your boss. 😉 If/when things stop working you just have to be prepared for the possible fallout.

Good luck.

if its just for a client, you're not going to lose a major source of income likely. so in terms of cost-benefit, you stand to lose a small financial source I'm assuming. but the reward potential could be that it becomes something good

If I was attracted to them I would.

It depends on what you want out of it, and of course what he wants out of it. It it's not the same thing, then you will not be his trainer when it's over. There's also the awkward issue of payment for services.

only if you know there is a possible chance of losing him as a client also what does your company think about the dating of clients? that is going to be the key.

If you say yes, that should be the end of your professional relationship.

If you’re ok with that, then I see no issues.

I’m not sure why some folks are saying no

I say yes. This is not a licensing/ethics issue like a doctor dating a patient or a lawyer dating a client.

I would give an actual answer, but I never dated anybody let alone date anybody I have a professional relationship with.

Nope. Never do that unless you want to retire from your career.

Sounds ok to me, if you drop him as a client once you start dating.

Been there, done that, more than once

It would be very difficult

Its your life,nothing wrong, besides, its always nice when girls ask boys out,because they never expect it, it usually men

Are you attracted to him? If so you should give him a chance

maybe i would why not

why not?

yes

?? not sure

Yes and I have

No

Say yes

Never. Unprofessional. And if it ever went wrong, what a mess.

no date but sex a lot with my coworker
