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?

Oh very nice!

Ah shit that is SUCH a smooth reply from him! Not sleazy, all breezy and the elusive ideal mix of cute but not sappy - I like him already. Thanks

Good luck OP, hope he turns out to be a good 'un.

Ooooohhh that sounds promising!!!!

Aquamarine1029 · 23/07/2019 14:29

Go knock on his door wearing nothing but a trench coat and heels! Or is that too forward? Grin

amusedbush · 23/07/2019 14:29

Oh, nice! I'm totally invested now Grin

How exciting!

Bobbiepin · 23/07/2019 14:38

OP go out for the first date, don't invite him round. If you actually like him rather than just wanting a shag then make a date, don't get too familiar too quickly.

Alternatively, if you just want a shag, I'd go with @Aquamarine1029's idea!!

xsquared · 23/07/2019 14:51

Well done op. It sounds like it might work out!

GrassIsntGreener · 23/07/2019 15:08

Oh wow!

CoolcoolcoolcoolcoolNoDoubt · 23/07/2019 15:12

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh this is so great Grin

I love it when a plan comes together - you couldn't have hoped for a better outcome. Here's hoping he lives up to your expectations.

Just let us know where and when and we will trail along if we are local Grin to mind you of course!!

Awww sweet 😍

SomeAfternoonDelight · 23/07/2019 15:27

This is fantastic OP! You go girl!

ThatCurlyGirl · 23/07/2019 15:30

If he turns up at your door a la Frank Butcher with the spinny sparkly bow tie we are going to need a picture.

Next best thing will be a diagram.

As you were.

LuluBellaBlue · 23/07/2019 15:31

dancemom · 23/07/2019 15:35

KakiharasKecks · 23/07/2019 15:39

Time to tidy your bedroom!

dudsville · 23/07/2019 15:39

Awe, that's a great line from him!!!!!

Myothernameistakenbysomeone · 23/07/2019 15:43

Love this thread! Keep us posted OP!

lunababoona · 23/07/2019 15:56

This is amazing!!!

StVincent · 23/07/2019 16:02

Oh I love this. I have a "no right swipes for real life people" but some I know think it's the done thing to right swipe everyone they know in real life!!

Best of luck. It's sweet that he's remembered when you moved in and also that he's checked you're not trying to cheat.
