Bread knives and Harry Potter
My friend: Has a history of dating absolutely insane women. (Each lived with him for some time, so this is relevant.) They all seemed nice enough at first, but within a few months they turned out to be suicidal (one nearly had her hand off with a serrated knife), lying unfaithful harlots, or just plain unhinged. His most recent one at least looked to be just your average outgoing, moderately wholesome kind of girl, except they'd get in long protracted arguments every couple of days because he had said something too casually or hadn't folded his tee shirts the right way. I heard about their breakup a day after it actually happened, and by then she'd already moved out and was halfway across the country - within two more days we saw on her myspace that she was happily engaged with someone she'd just met. Oh yes, very stable, her.

As for me - I had a roommate who owned about an entire used bookstore's worth of harlequin novels, stayed in her room all day except to go to martial arts lessons, and was obsessed with Harry Potter. I attempted reading a few trashy books in fits of boredom, but there's only so much you can take of heaving bosoms and rippling muscles before you start reaching for the dramamine. She wasn't too odd though - it was her friends (who thankfully didn't live with us). I was invited on more than one occasion to a threesome with said friend and her then-fiance, in the same way one might receive an invitation for, say, a dinner party. This might've been all right, I suppose everyone gets randomly propositioned for sex at some point in their life - but then I heard by proxy that she was really very eager to get in my pants, and if I ever felt like it, really, that I was welcome anytime, and was I sure I didn't want to? Because it'd be fun, and really it wasn't a bother, and...

I'm not sure if there's a word meaning 'flattered, bemused and slightly terrified', but there ought to be.
