I think in a general way of discussing, that it is bad and should not be allowed, but in reality it may happen and go with it.  If it does happen, it should be handled as professionally as possible.  I've seen office romances that work mainly because the romance is outside the office and inside they are 2 professionals that no one would be aware are more outside the office.  I think it works best in situations where the 2 may work for the same company, in close offices but not actually in the same division or office, so that there is less opportunity for out-of-office ill feelings to bleed into the work relationship.  But do I think that this is something that should be pursued purposely and without regards to how it may affect the work relationship?  No, in no uncertain terms.  If 2 folks do find their significant other in the work place, then they need to approach it carefully and keep as professional a persona as possible at all times in the work place.  Nothing worse than 2 folks having a tiff and it bleeding into the office and affecting everyone that works with them with the vibes they're putting off.
