I had an Organizational Behavior professor who used to say that that he believes companies get the kind of employees they deserve. I can't say I disagree.

it's probably a good idea to dissuade any kind of potential harassment issues between employees during work hours. Harassment lawsuits destroy small companies, and can cause major turbulence even in big companies
See:
Github CEO's wife.
Microsoft's xbox swingers

Bingo. HR and their policies are there to protect the company, not to protect an individual employee's expression of free love.

There's heaps of relationships at my company? Many out on site because small towns with us in them mean we're the major employer, so you tend not to have many other options, but even in the capital cities the grads will occasionally hook up, or a finance and a business person will hook up, or whatever.

How can you guys be so terrible at being adults about it all?

There are loads of married/dating people in my company, the very definition of a HyperGiantMegaCorp (tech industry dampens it some).

There are loads of people who have spouses/SOs working here. I don't think anyone cares. Maybe they would if there was a boss/subordinate thing going on?
