Low-tack paper tape might be a quickie substitute; could also help around the neck.
Sherry, your trepedation is understandable but, in the grand scheme of things, reminds me of some folks' fear of learning to swim:
Changing strings really isn't THAT hard, costs an hour or less in time and maybe a few dollars worth of discarded strings, leaves you with an unexpectedly valuable skill, and lets you move on with one less thing to worry about. (And ya don't have to get wet!)
Heck, you could even end up being the hero when your accomplices need help!

Our mistakes weren't quite so easy to undo
But by all those roads, my friend, we've travelled down
I'm a better man for just the knowin' of you."
