Neighbour on Tinder WWYD

Hello!
I moved house a couple of years ago, and met my neighbour shortly after. Thought he was gorgeous but i was in a relationship, so have never taken any conversation past small talk.
He is aware I had a boyfriend, although I lived alone.
However I've now split from my boyfriend and recently gone on Tinder, where I have seen my neighbours profile. I closed the app without swiping so I guess he's still hanging around on there?
He's same age as me and I find him attractive, however he lives in my building...has potential to be awkward AF.
Should I swipe left or right?! He may have already seen me and discarded me anyway 😂
What would you do?

It could get awkward if it doesn’t work out but you’ll never know unless you try!

Haha this sounds like a book plot OP! I say you should give it a go, but I'd be shitting myself too 😂😂

I’d shag him. Nothing ventured, nothing gained!

Interested in this thread?

Shag him 😂😂
If we match what the hell would I even say?
'Oh hi, your bedroom is above mine. Wanna pop down?'

I think that’s the best pickup line of all time

Look at his profile. It'll come up on his that you have and he may react.

Do you just want a hook up? What does his say?

Don't go there unless you both want the same thing.

ponoka tinder doesn't work like that!

OP I would swipe right. If it is a match then nothing to be embarrassed about and maybe give it a go. If he swipes left then he will never know that you swiped right!

@usernametaken01 - From my experience, asking someone if they wanna pop down can have some very rewarding results Wink.

Just swipe right. He won't even know unless he swipes right too, so nothing to lose!

Please keep us updated how this works out Grin

Firefly111 · 21/07/2019 21:00

Swipe right!!!

usernametaken01 · 21/07/2019 21:26

Ok ok I've got the fear, but I'm going to do it! I'm going to swipe right and ask him 'down' 😉

If we match I don't know whether to say something crude about him always being on top of me anyway 😂

Have you done it ? Grin

Jupiter13 · 21/07/2019 21:44

Asking him to pop downstairs has 2 meanings.... don't ask him to use the rear door either..😂😂😂😂

userxx · 21/07/2019 21:52

Oh just do it, what have you got to lose? I ended up with mine ❤️

usernametaken01 · 21/07/2019 22:56

So I've done it and right-swiped him, but we didn't match straightaway so I guess I'm just going to have to wait and see if we do 😬😬

usernametaken01 · 21/07/2019 22:57

@userxx was it your neighbour too?!

CrispbuttyNo1 · 21/07/2019 22:58

Oh god this thread makes me feel so old and out of touch.. 😂😂😂

Goforitgirl · 21/07/2019 22:58

I know someone who married their neighbour ...

usernametaken01 · 21/07/2019 23:04

Christ, I'm actually bricking it. Why am I so anxious 😂

Swipe then send a cheeky message saying hi neighbour. Saw it was you and couldn’t resist saying hi lol. See why comes back!

@Jupiter13 - If he is happy to pop downstairs, it could follow with a date! Always good to get the practicalities sorted. Grin Otherwise you can be wasting your time.
