I'm a reference librarian at a midsize university. My office is off the research/reference area, and I staff the reference desk for 8-10 hours a week. Yesterday, another librarian gave me a candybar with a note from a girl that thanked me for helping her at one of our computers for the public. It also had her number on it. I don't remember the girl and the librarian just said that she was cute. The librarian is a 60 year old woman and I didn't want to ask her-- "is she hot?"-- for obvious reasons.

I called her last night and made the mistake of asking her to coffee way too early. After we agreed to coffee on Saturday, she started to go on and on, and we ended up talking for about 15 minutes. It turns out that she's a hardcore christian who goes to evangelical conferences for fun, and all of her friends come from this end of the christian scale. She is 31 and doesn't have a 4 year degree yet, and said something about suing an ex-employer (didn't really understand what she was saying).

She knows someone at the library (that's how she found out my name), but I don't know who. I'm thinking it's just a lower level staff member, though.

I didn't feel like rescinding my offer and going through that awkwardness, though.

She knows where I work, she sounded somewhat unstable, and the fact that she knows someone at the library give me some pause. I don't know if I should just not contact her again, txt her "I don't think we have much in common," or just txt her some excuse and blow her off. I don't want to do anything to piss off a possible stalker.

Just go to coffee with her and talk about how the devil has saved you, and try to get her to go to some sort of worship service. I bet she will remove herself from your life pretty quickly.

Just go to coffee with her. It isn't like a real date and then if she goes on to long have a excuse to leave.

What else you got going on tonight?

It's tomorrow at 11 am. I had originally planned on going on a long bike ride, getting a haircut and shopping for Jeans. I'd rather do that than meet some crazy lady.

I've got a brilliant idea. Tell her you think you're falling in love with her. This has only two outcomes.

1) She runs like the wind
2) Says she feels the same and you get to lay her all you want, but then again, wise man say not to stick dick in crazy

Who cares if she's not all that hot, poon is poon.

I'd go for coffee and leave it at that. She might turn out to be somewhat interesting...and you can excuse yourself at any time.

Tell her that you're gay. Of course, she might try to "save you" if you say that, so that might not be a good idea.

EDIT: On second thought, she might try to "save you" by putting out, so maybe it IS a good idea. :D

I've had some of my best times with crazy women.

Just go to coffee and bring up subjects like premarital sex, birth control, abortion and homosexuality, and that you're in favor of all of said subjects. I mean come on - have some fun with the situation at least. And most of all, come back and post the results of said encounter for us to lulz at later. Consider it a "research project", if you will.

Alternatively, just call and tell her that you have an emergency appointment to get some lab work done after your previous girlfriend called yesterday and told you she was HIV positive.
