I have been a few situations like that. I am a real estate appraiser and meet a lot of people. I have had a couple throw out strong hints. I even took one to lunch. I told myself that I wasn't sure she was into me.... but I knew it. She asked me back to her house again after lunch and said she had some other stuff to show me.... I politely declined and told her that I had another appointment I had to get to. That is the most tempted I have been. I have had other situations, but none so clear. None so available. None so incredibly attractive.
I also had a gay football player try to pick me up when I appraised his house. When I told him I was married, he told me that some women like to watch their husband with another man. I had to make sure not to have an overly negative reaction. If I had too big of a reaction, then, he could have claimed I was 'bias' in my opinion of value. And, I knew the value was coming in low. So, I just told him I would ask her and get back to him.... then got the heck out of there.
