As you spend much time together in the same office, in front of each other, you may probably not need to go for outings that may cost you a lot.

The fact that all the while you are in front of the love of your life may take away the privacy or the Space that you may need for yourself. This can even cause some major problems in case of continuous attention from the other partner.
You may even hesitate performing your basic duties. For example you are the project lead and your girlfriend is your subordinate and if she fails to complete some major task given to her, you may be in a fix scolding her or warning her against the mistake.
The most important change seen with a couple working in a same office is the decrease in their output. With your girlfriend or boyfriend moving around and trying to attract you further, how are you supposed to pay complete attention on the stuff that you are doing?
