I was so sorry later when I had to tell her our engagement was off. I had confused professional respect and sexual attraction for love and had finally come to my senses. Besides, I had already hired her replacement and would be replacing her within two months. I was tired of having to reason with a headstrong middle-aged female and the prospect of working with an amenable graduate student was too good to pass up. My position as lab director was prestigious enough to attract any number of attractive female students to act as my general assistant and gopher. I had decided that I had no desire to have a scientific rival working for me.
