I read 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene, one of the laws being that you should protect your reputation with all that you have.

I've been closely analyzing powerplays and politics in the workplace and dammit, even the relationships you have with specific coworkers have an influence on your reputation.

Now I'm wondering reputation & FDS together. For those of us who dated, married, or divorced a LVM or ZVM, did you find it affecting your reputation in any way? Conversely, did you find dating/marrying a HVM affecting your reputation?
