Would you work in a workplace in which someone you are attracted to also works if you were in a relationship? (lemmygrad.ml)

I am in the interview process for a job in a research group and it is going well so far. The only issue is that I was attracted to the person that interviewed me and I am going to be working with if I get hired.

My girlfriend is the most important person in the world for me so I don't want to risk catching feelings for someone else, but I also need to find a job if I am to rent a place to finally live with her.

What would you do in my case? Would you stop the interview process and try to find a job elsewhere or would you go for it and trust that you would do the right thing?

This question might sound deranged to you, but I have the full autism/ADHD/OCD combo so I am very out of touch with how the average person thinks.

You'll meet a bunch of attractive (to you) people through work. You won't be able to avoid it forever. I suggest you to work on yourself to avoid professional problems in the future.
