OK, so I'm sittin' here living with a 29yo devorcee coworker. She's been without a man for the past, uhh, about 4-5 years and due to financial concerns, I've moved in with her. The problem is, while she is attracted to me, I'd rather spend the rest of my life celebately in a moss-laden cave than have anything to do with her.
I don't consider myself a physical prize by any means. Sittin' here at 26yo, 6'1" and pushin' 235lbs, I'm far from a lady's-man, but I like to go out and have fun and would extend myself as far as saying I can hold my own in most intelectual coversations. I moved in with this chick (chick used in the most non-derragatory way) because she offered me a room with the run-of-the-house for a mere $150/month--utilities included barring broadband. It's pretty hard to pass up a deal like that with school loans and insurance and the like.
There is a problem, however. She has a rather large crush on me and while I keep any advances and interest she shows at bay with simple appathy, the occasion arrises where we two, perhaps with common friends, will go out and have a few cocktails. Now while I have grown up in a very booze-liberal, German household with a common disregard for our livers and can handle a drink or six, she has the tendancy to get a bit, shall I say, over-affectionate when her BAC is driven anywhere above sober. Did I mention that a good descriptive word for her, both mentally and physically would be "ggghhhhehhhhh!!" ?
Anyway, my question to the wisdom of ATOT is: do I take this sexual, albeit icky crazy train, or do I stick to my hermit-like guns in hopes for greener pastures?
