Arm’s Length

You might as well grind me up and put me in a McNugget.

There’s a person out there, and I’m almost certain that if I spend any time with her, I’m going to trip all over myself and fall into some blissful state.  There are three semi-rational options:

(1) Ditch her.  Summary:  Logistically easy, but nothing of worth is easy.
—-(a) Won’t be distracted if another girl comes along.
—-(b) Requires not being friends, not praying for her.
—-(c) Burning bridges – and a really good bridge at that.
(2) Just be a friend.  Summary:  Spiritually hard, but I’m probably making it hard.
—-(a) “Do I like her” debate in my head.
—-(b) Person worth knowing, but don’t get to go too deep or spend too much time.
—-(c) Mad awkward.
(3) Go for broke.  Summary:  Either way, one less person to invite to the wedding.
—-(a) Could easily complete (1c).
—-(b) Might be really great.
—-(c) Steal time from what we should really be doing.

(4) Making list.  Summary:  Sign of indecisiveness and immaturity.
