專欄親愛的經濟學家

DO I SHOW MY HAND AND RISK MY HOME?

Dear Economist:

I am a third-year university student and I share a flat with a student on the same course as me from the year below. We are good friends, but I, alas, want us to be more than that. The risks of my confessing my feelings are quite high. If it works out, I have a girlfriend; if it doesn't, I'll end up homeless, looking for an (almost prohibitively expensive one-person) apartment, having lost my best friend. If I keep her in the dark I'm guaranteed to have a roof over my head for the two remaining years. Can economics provide an answer to my dilemma?
