Should I ask him up here?

Look I know it's Sunday and the sun is shining.. But pleease I need some encouragement . I posted my story on 'what's the most embarrassing thing that's happened to you?' thread yesterday and feel it's time to look wider for help.

Cutting long story short - bloke I fancy lives in garden flat below me. Pretty sure he's single, another neighbour reckons so too. Me, hung washing out on my balcony (mostly undies), windy day, they all flew off and landed in his garden downstairs. I plucked up the nerve to go down there ask him if I could get them, he agreed very nicely offered to help. I refused it and sprinted through his place, to garden, picked, (I thought), all my washing up and was leaving hurriedly, managed to catch bra strap in door handle, they all fell on his floor and I banged head on his living room door. I gathered up all items again and ran home burning with embarrassment.

Day later, knock on door, I answered in old jogging bottoms, filthy old vest, and cat shit, litter tray shovel in my hand. It was him, with a pair of my huge, grey baggies in his hand. He gave them (lovely smile) to me, and made a witty remark. Told me his name and that he's a plumber etc.. I, through half-opened front door , snatched nix off him, in tears of embarrassment. He left saying if he found anymore he'd bring them back..

Anyhow couple of days on and I'm calm and looking incredibly gorgeous, his car is downstairs and I have leaking tap. Should I ask him up here???? If so, how?? WTF do I say??

He's probably just tighening his nuts

Lweji · 17/05/2015 14:45

I hope he's not a tool.

what the hell, I'm not good a double entendres and want to mark place

Given your clumsiness try not to fall on him naked on his first call. If you do, make sure you are not the only one naked.

Hell, yes, get him up there pronto!!

Don't forget to hang several pairs of Agent Provocateur style undies and bras strategically on the nearby radiator, with the subliminal message "for the record there are my everyday ones"

Good luck!

Placemarking living vicariously.

BitOut Very good!

Maybe he's screwed it up. . . and these are all pipe dreams.

Place marking

Unashamedly place marking

GingerbreadBaubles · 17/05/2015 15:52

I wonder if he arrived in a flasher Mac with a dodgy moustache!

18yearstooold · 17/05/2015 15:53

Op I can't believe you've left us all hanging! not marking place, oh no

Lweji · 17/05/2015 15:58

Maybe the OP has more than one leak.

Let's just hope he didn't prematurely think it was fixed and messed it up.

sourdrawers · 17/05/2015 16:04

Guess what? We're in the park.. More soon!
