co-worker, boss, me
I have a great job & my supervisor is amazingly nice. She has a younger brother who also works in our store (he's 19, i'm 18) and me and him have become close. He recently told me he wants to be more than friends and I was excited. My supervisor is actually supportive about all of this. The thing is, I'm scared of what would happen if we broke up and weren't on good terms. I don't want to jeopardize my job and my supervisors opinion of me but I really like this guy.

27/M here. Generally it's not a good idea to date within your job, and 9 times out of 10 I would advise against it. Having said that, however, I fell victim to your situation when I was a sophomore in college, and the end result was bearable but a little awkward. If you two are into each other, and your supervisor has no problems, then it may be okay but that's up to your discretion. Should you two break up while you still work together, come to a mutual understanding and maintain a professional working persona so there won't be any tension in your work environment. As for your supervisor, be careful. It's true that you can't be fired for personal indifference, but they'll be prompted to find other ways to give you the boot legally. Date the guy and be happy, but deal with a possible break-up professionally, not personally. Take care!

You just need to examine your priorities, or to decide what you want most. If you are 18, I doubt your current job will end up being a career, I'd say go date the boy and be happy. If you do break up, and if things do go poorly, look for a job elsewhere.
Besides, if your supervisor is supportive now, I doubt she will turn totally on you if you do break up (unless you do something totally reprehensible, and then deserve it).

If your really worried then ask your supervisor if it would jeopardize your job being with him and then breaking up.
