Was at a family wedding Saturday. I was driving so sober. Seen a guy I thought was really handsome, thought I seen him look at me a few times (I was sober but could still be completely delusional/it be nothing). He didn't have a date.

He was speaking to my brother a lot but other than that he didn't seem to speak to many people. As I was leaving I gave my brother a lift for cigarettes and he said, 'oh that's so and so, he's a lovely guy' blah blah. So I got his name.

Looked him up on Facebook. Would it be weird/creepy to add him? It would be wouldn't it? Especially cause we didn't speak to one another?

I thought it was because the sister was prettier than her and he might prefer her...Am I a psychopath? 😥

Cousins wife has put up pictures on Facebook which we have both commented on. I'm like should I just bloody send him one now? Think it would be stranger to do it in a few days?

If he didn't speak to many people. He's probably shy. Hope he replies!

How exciting! Was going to suggest wait to be tagged in wedding photos then comment to get his attention 😊 then I saw your update. Fingers crossed, OP!

swallowme · 24/10/2023 20:42

He has messaged!

Personally I would try to get your brother to set up some kind of introduction via mutual friends. If the guy doesn’t take it up, then so be it – nothing lost, nothing gained and you’ll never see the guy again so who cares.

I think the whole ‘he didn’t make move on the night’ thing is rubbish. It’s not always that simple and people are not always that forward. I’d go for it, OP. Why not?

Ryansmrs · 24/10/2023 20:46

What did he say?

Didimum · 24/10/2023 20:47

OK. My message is late to the party 🤣 woo hoo!

Hey that’s good! My brother met his wife at a wedding, just sayin ;-)

Twotwinpeaks · 24/10/2023 20:57

Exciting update. Hope it goes well for you.

The riddle Psycho test. Does she kill her sister as the sexy guy is her sister’s hubby? (BIL)

Hey said 'evening 😀 are you as hungover as me today?'

I have enjoyed the progress of this thread from "I think I'll just leave it" to a flirty FB message from him. Hurrah!

swallowme · 24/10/2023 22:14

We've been chatting. I said he caught my eye and he said, 'I seen you early on, you were sat in front of me at the service'. Does that mean I caught his eye also or he just generally seen me 🤣 I'm so bad at this.

She kills her sister to see the man at the funeral.

I seriously doubt it’s actually used to seriously determine someone is a psychopath but it is interesting to see who actually comes up with that response.
Normally when asking the question you phrase it as a riddle so people don’t know the reason you are actually asking.

I’ve asked it a few times but obviously never taken it seriously! I’m very squeamish and an absolute people pleaser, I think everyone has a dark side but I’m absolutely not a psychopath. My partner still teases me that I gave the answer that indicates I am though 😂.
