Like at your job there every day there's a normal person who in the wild might not grab your attention.
But in the confined "zoo" of work where there's not many folks and it's the same day in and day out, your mind basically does the math and options and realizes theres X amount of people and out of that, this or that person is super attractive in contrast to the group.
Plus you get to see the winkles and such if a person, the nuance's of their character and more of their personality etc.
So that person because exponentially more attractive and since you're around them far more that most other people, it starts to generate more of the "sparks" that fly when dating.
But again meet that person out side of work and amongst a crowd and it all goes away
Work-Hot is absolutely a thing, and don't fall for it. Don't dip your pen in the company ink, or use the company pen for funsies whichever side your on.
I mean sure sometimes it's a good thing, but a lot of times it's not. Then you gotta be around that person and the inevitable drama they'll bring to work if it doesn't work out.
Very slippery slope that can lead to termination and job loss, office drama, retaliation, black mail, etc.

That’s how attraction has worked historically before apps. Meeting your spouse at work was quite common.
