It could be that friend you crushed on in college, but never had the courage to approach. He's single now... and he's moving into your building. Perhaps it's your ex-- he's in recovery from the very issues that drove you away, and he's looking for a fresh start. Sure, you could ignore him, and let the history between you keep you apart. (After all, you had good reasons for breaking up with him in the first place, right?) Or....
