    I guess it depends on the country, but afaik some countries have laws against ”romantic” relationships between teachers and students. Of course that would only apply if the teacher-student relationship was official. If it’s not, I see no harm in it.

    This looks like the most uncomfortable way of watching tv. Especially if it’s coding instead of watching tv.
    It might be ok for JS though, as the pain in the back would be distracting from the pain the brain.

    @mubahood no way. the fights over coding style and variable naming and debugging would get mixed with dinner, laundry and fart discussions.
    Thus the relationship would likely be very short.

    i don't think a power imbalance like a teacher/student status is healthy in a romantic relationship. you probably won't have any problems from it, unless your employers dislike it, but she will be at your mercy. i don't mean that you'll abuse that power, it's just that it can cause some anxiety/tension, so think it through before doing anything that could harm her
