Also ignores the literal on screen romances we see.
They don't make out in front of us but season 2 features two couples.

Idk about no romance, but it's always discreet since they are all at work.
Santos and Garcia are banging.
Javadi asks out that nurse whose name I can't remember but he tells her he doesn't date coworkers.
Dr. Robby and Noel Hastings are hooking up.
Dr. McKay and Mel both have patients who hit on them, and McKay arranges a date with her dude.

Side note, I’ve never understood people who don’t date co workers. I’ve dated a couple of them before and never once had any issue. One actually was a two year relationship and why we broke up had nothing to do with work at all, the other didn’t either. Hell, idk where else some grown people would even meet someone besides online.💀

Have it go poorly one time and see how it impacts the workplace, and you’ll understand it a heck of a lot better.
(Or, alternatively, have a kink or piercing or physical/medical condition or really anything personal that you really really really don’t want to get around at work)

I’ve seen it happen to my friend who got his ex a job where we work. she cheated on him with another worker. Tbf though him, the guy in question, and that girl are all f****** idiots so it wasn’t shocking.

Caveat: I live in nyc so lots of options outside of work
Don’t shit where you eat.

Same lol. If you live in a podunk town, sure, I get it. But many if not most young people live in cities with options - plus idk it’s nice to vent about work to your SO and never worry about it getting into the wrong hands. I like my job, but my partner is a welcome break from it.

I met my husband at a concert… if you go out into the world and are open to meeting people, it can happen. I am one of the people who would not date a co-worker, I like to have a life outside of work too much and work talk would intrude upon that. Plus I’ve seen it go so, so badly to the point of where HR became involved. Rumors flying, fights, moving teams. It also can make it uncomfortable for people who work around couples, favoritism and such. Pass.

Throughout my whole 20's I worked at best buy. I have seen SO many relationships like this blow up and cause so much insane drama. People getting fired, property damage, restraining orders etc.
From the outside it was like a soap or novella. Thankfully I never was a part of the drama but I completely understand why others say don't date coworkers.
I say you gotta take some risks in life, just be ready.

To be fair, each season is 12 “real time” hours in an ER. Kind of hard to go through the stages of budding romance during that time.

I know Taylor says she plays Mel as Ace, but I'm here for a Mentos relationship at the show's end.

I don’t have any issue with no on screen romance but why tf is everyone in here being so weirdly puritanical and sanctimonious?

> Part of what makes the couplings of “The Pitt” unique is the plethora of pairings to choose from — and the fact that the show, which takes place in an understaffed and overfilled emergency room, barely features anything that might suggest romance is blossoming. Mohan and Abbott do little more than share one somewhat private conversation during a particularly tense shift (granted, he’s shirtless for it); the same can be said for KingDon, McVay and the rest (though all remain clothed, in those cases). The lack of source material hasn’t stopped fans of the show — rather, it’s made it all the more fun to analyze, speculate and imagine what might be going on outside of the singular 15-hour shift we get to see.

I mean that’s not entirely true, they imply romance between several characters, and of course fandom is gonna make up ships that’s mostly what fandoms do lol.

They’re crazy for writing stories inspired by media they like exploring relationships between the characters?
