To fancy my neighbour?

So a package got delivered to my neighbour 3 doors down. I’ve never met him before (think he’s quite new).

I got home and he brought the package over straight away and I opened the door to someone 100% my type.

I just don’t know how to move things forward, plus he might be married/taken so could be pointless (nothing to say either way). How can I get to randomly bump into him without being obvious?

Nothing….if you’re 100% his type he will make sure to bump into you. Relax 😎

Never shit on your doorstep.

He’s 3 doors down, I’ve never even seen my neighbours next door but one.

Why should he be the one to make all the effort? The guys on Dadsnet might be saying the same to him

I suppose you keep an eye out to see if there are any women coming and going? Order more parcels to be delivered to him? Drop him round a little gift for taking in your parcel? Ask him in or out for coffee?

Ha, I did this... she lived opposite me.

Can't escape her now, we're married.

Organise a street party?

Get him a small gift to say thank you 😊 x

I did this
It didn't work
When I finished with him I had to spend 6 months sneaking in my back door and not putting the lights on so he wouldn't know I was home....Blush

My friend dated her neighbour, it went wrong and she felt uncomfortable as he knew when she was home/ friends round etc.
Please don’t take him a gift to say thank you, as a pp suggested, that would be bloody odd.

Wasn't the only one to mention it

Don’t worry guys, I did some FBI stalking and he has a girlfriend. We had a short lived love affair for all of 2 minutes when he handed me the parcel and then it ended. Ha.
