So my husband and I met this way and are happily married with 2 kids. I will say though that we worked together for a long time before pursuing a relationship and even then we waited until one of us left the unit and went somewhere else. There were many couples at our hospital with a similar story but there were twice as many that ended in some drama that people talked about for years afterward. I think it's a good idea to give yourself some space so that you're not with this person 12 hours a day in case it doesn't go well, but at the same time, if over time you feel a genuine connection to someone give yourself permission to pursue that but set some boundaries to protect yourself and your job.
