Actually, you shouldn't let it get that far. Eye candy yes, but no shenanigans. If it gets to that point she'll just stop paying rent and then you'll also be on the hook for her meals.
That might still be a good deal. It's worked for me for 25 years

just come home with an extra garbage can, write her name on it, add a note.
"your trash goes here, If i come home and stinks, your clothes will go here and youll be taken out to the curb with your stinking trash. "
Have a Nice day....
In reply to 924guy:
That is actually a really good idea. You know why I haven't done it yet? Because the last time I got creative with a girl roommate and the consequences of her actions, it ended up with a bucket (small) of cold water waking her up in the morning.
Oh, and the fact that tiny condo is tiny, I wouldn't even know where to put the garbage bin. Damn though, that is a really, really good idea. starts perusing Canadian Tire flyer for garbage cans
This ought to be interesting to watch
*gets the popcorn.
Good luck
Setup a webcam so we can watch? It would at least be better than most of the stuff on TV.

get me a drink to would you??
I'd make a quick check of the laws around roomies and leases in your region, as well. If you have to lay down the law, make sure you're not going to end up on Judge Judy or something.

Oh man, this thread just got hearted.
(I've had two roommates in my life: my best friend from highschool and my girlfriend of (now) 13 years. This sort of interaction is terribly interesting for a social mutant like me.)

Like the old saying goes "No matter how hot she is, somebody is tired of putting up with her E36 M3.
Well... lets just say it went better than expected... sort of? I'll type up a nice long story tomorrow. The good news is I am still alive AND have a roommate.
8 hrs from whatthehell'mIgonnadohere? to "I'll type a nice long story tomorrow..."
I'd say there's more to this particular story than we've been told. Maybe she's on the forum, watching the developement of the thread...
whenever a conversation like that takes place between SWMBO and I, and somehow, in the 11th hour it turns out ok for me, a little voice in the back of my head reminds me of that part in Eddie Murphy's Delirious where he talks about a girl whos just been smacked by her BF, and she tells the smacker that its ok, she deserved it...why doesnt he just go to sleep...
Im always afraid of how it will be when (if) I wake up
Good luck! make sure your renters/property insurance is paid up if youre gonna be out of town for any length of time in the near future. I got fired from a pizza delivery gig when I was 17 for telling an incredibly rude customer over the phone that he may wish to rethink his attitude...the food he was about to consume would be alone with me in my car for about 5 minuts, with no supervision and no health department, no one to see what I could do, and a A LOT of nefarious actions take waaaaay less than 5 minutes when youre 17...Id hate to think what could be done in 48 hours or more

Agreed and have proof of the convential wisdom that:
"Nothing berkeleys like a crazy chick."
I wish!
But I actually don't, as has been mentioned, that would probably end up causing lots of havoc.
Basically there was a nice, calm discussion on both sides. Apparently she is feeling stuck in her room as I have my entertainment system out in the living room with computer attached. I told her I'd be moving my computer into my bedroom, but that there would be a full on entertainment system being put in its place. I guess she doesn't mind the fact that now she'll be putting up with me hanging out in the living room playing video games versus surfing the web. I even wear little ear buds so as not to make noise, so its not really a noise thing.
She's been busy admittingly enough, and I guess something happened to her grandma the other day making her scatter brain. Does that make me care? No, and I told her that. So, she'll be taking out the garbage now on a more consistant basis, and I will be moving my computer into my room.
I win

So you're living with a woman and not having sex with her.
I thought that was called "marriage".
You make it sound like I'm the only woman in the world who takes out the garbage. I am completely ruled by my emotions and I'll admit strong emotions are invoked by the stink of the garbage can.
For the record, I always have male roommates. Female roommates just make me homicidal. :D Seriously, I don't know how some of you guys manage to stay married for 25 years...
