Gee, I worked in an undergraduate computer facility for three years, and 
can't remember ever once getting a date or anything else from anyone who
I was helping!  As a matter of fact, I had female partners for two 
undergraduate computer projects and I never considered them as potential
dates or anything.

We managed to keep our interactions strictly business.  I don't even recall
inquiring about my partners' SO's or anything, and at neither time did I
have an SO of my own (still don't, as a matter of fact).

I can't speak for anyone else who worked at that undergraduate computer
facility, but I don't recall any romances springing up between the staff and
consultants (that's what I was) and the users of the computer facility.
Well, on the other hand, there was ONE, but I don't think either he or she
used their relative positions to manipulate themselves into the relationship.
