‘It’s not you, it’s me’ is the gist of college student qualms with dating apps. Hook-up culture declines while young people search for genuine connection.

Dating someone is not a protected class, and unless there is a demand for illegal action or potential whistleblowering, then you can get fired for it without consequences. Helll you can be fired for ANY reason as long as it's not retaliatory or in violation of protected class

Dating people is legal, which is why you don't get arrested for it. But that ain't got any overlap with business policy.
