Don, kml points out a key fallacy in your argument. There's a difference between tolerance ("the ability or willingness to tolerate something, in particular the existence of opinions or behavior that one does not necessarily agree with.") vs. being attracted to and willing to date and form an intimate relationship with someone.

Andrew illustrates this point well! He tolerates his neighbor--may enjoy her company in many instances--but has set boundaries around dating her and around engaging her in conversations about certain topics.
