How risky is this?

I'm a landlord of a house with a number of single people living in it.

I am thinking of asking one of the girls who lives in the house out on a date. :rolleyes:

Given our respective financial dependencies do you guys think this is risky? That is, could a lot go wrong? :eek:

I take some comfort from the fact that this is how my parents met 45 years ago - and they are still married!

I think I know the answer, but I was wondering what the consensus was.

P.S. Have I posted this in the right place?

    Its high risk, but to be fair people meet under stranger circumstances.

    (met my wife at work and got her the sack within 2 months)
    (I think shes forgiven me)
