Should I ask the plumber out?

171 replies

Evening all!
Posting here for traffic & a name change!
I'm having some work done on my house.
The plumber is hot.
I'm a single mum (single for two years) 😱☺️with zero self confidence!
We've been chatting. There's a definite connection. I think.
No wedding ring and no mention of a partner (we have chatted loads)
I almost asked him today and then thought it'll be mortifying if he says no and has to return.
He's confirmed the job is done.
He texted and thanked me for the testimonial and said 'have a wonderful evening'
Should I just message and ask him out? Any tips on wording? 🤔

Aargh I both love and hate these threads! I was about to start reading my book, now I'm over-invested in a strangers love-life!

Place marking. I need a plumber.

BooseysMom · 28/05/2019 21:41

Good luck OP. Sometimes i wish I was single again. I'd go on First Dates. I asked DH if he would mind me going on it and i'd pretend to be single and he said ok..we have a very open relationship.. Either that or he just doesn't give a shit or he knows i won't go anyway Confused
