It may be for fear of and disgust about things like that that I live like a monk (a monk with a past or with escapades, that is) and that people would take me for some J'sW, or LDS wacko.
I don't want to bungle this either and get fired for something stupid. That's what happened to my previous boss. Despite him working in another department/site [about 2mi from where I work], I am in management and he is an associate. My company's fraternization's policy is a bit hazy on this and I really don't want to get HR involved in this quagmire.



I was avoiding the implication I got that maybe I wasn't big enough for him my ego jumped on when I first saw it.
