Neighbour on Tinder WWYD

[usernametaken01]

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?

If you've swiped right dont follow it up with a message. Otherwise it will be awkward if he ignores the message.

For a positive story, I fell head over heels for my housemate a few years a go. Spent ages avoiding him and hiding in my room, following the don't shit where you eat mentality...

Well I did take a cracking dump in the end, a few years and two kids later we are still as happy as can be. Good luck op!

Ok so he's matched me 🤗
But not messaged me?! What do I do 😬

@usernametaken01 message him!!!

@IHaventGotAnyStuff what do I say?! 😂

🙌

I’d say give it a day or two to see if he contacts you. If he doesn’t drop him a message

I’d say ‘fancy seeing you here’ is decent if slightly unimaginative opener!

I accidentally bought the house next door to my bootie call. He'd always come to mine so I had no idea.

We had the 'this could potentially be uncomfortable' chat and decided to risk it.

17 years of marriage and four kids later we are still very happy together.

Send him a message asking him down for a drink... go on go on go on

This is so exciting! Message him - you have nothing to lose

OP I asked my hot neighbour out just because I wanted to shag him

It's been 15 months now, he's moved since but is still local
I love him to bits, best thing I ever did

How about hello!!!?

When I saw the title I assumed this was someone who'd caught their married neighbour putting it out there but this is so much better 🤗

@Orlandointhewilderness I went with 'Oh hello! 👋🏼'
🙈🙈

Oooo please keep us all posted on what happens After that I fancy my postie thread. I’ve discovered I really like this sort of thread especially if there is a happy ending

Also that’s a good an opening gambit as any

Message him!

I am very invested. Hoping this works out amazingly

Just popping on to place mark 👋🏽

Yay, glad you messaged him 👍

Oh my Gawd, I love these threads. OK, no idea how Tinder works so just following everyone else’s guidance but I’m very hopeful. How long do these things usually take? My only reference point is the days where you waited for someone to call the landline and hoped no one else was using it. What’s the etiquette here? Keeping my fingers crossed for you, Username.

Ooohhhhhhhh

Ahhh I love this! Hope it works out

Well done OP! Keep us updated!!!!

I'm nervous to see how this pans out!!
No reply as yet, but you'll literally all be the first to know when he does because the only other person I've told is my mum who I saw today
😂🤞🏼😬
