    Get over it before you do something inappropriate, wreck your marriage and shock this young girl with some sort of advance that is probably the furthest thing from her mind.

    I hate to tell you, but she's probably thinking what a nice man you are, just like old uncle Joe or grandpa Schmit used to be, and that's it.

    Trust me

    Don't forget to give her a Werther's Original every day.

      It sounds like you have a story to tell us, Platypus. Perhaps one that we can all learn from.

      Please do tell.

She's come to work here, thinks what a nice home I have, what a comfortable life I have, looking at my beautiful kids playing in the garden, looking at my perfect life. I'm thinking I want to get out of here.

        It's midday, the sun is shining. I offer her lunch, she refuses. I make it for her anyway and she eats. It's like no one's ever done anything for her.
        Is this an extract from one of those crowd-sourced novels where each paragraph is added by a different author?

          Just sell her and buy yourself a new kitchen instead.

                To give it some context, it all started here:

                She was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar, that much is (not) true.
