I fancy the postie!

Hello!

So I'm new to mumsnet. Long time lurker. I'm a 30yo single mum with two daughters.

I'll get straight to it. I order quite a lot of things online so the postie knocks on my door quite often. It's only been recently however that we started talking. Nothing much, just a bit of small talk and maybe light flirting? Hard to tell!

Today was lovely. He knocked this morning and as I answered my little yorkie ran out and he ran after her, picked her up and brought her back. Seems silly but a little gesture like that really meant a lot!

Anyway, I'm hopeless at taking initiative with these sorts of things. I have no idea if he's single and don't really know how to go about finding out?

Thank you!

👀👀 come back OP

themueslicamel · 19/07/2019 12:04

I think the OP pushed him outside his comfort envelope, and tried to put her stamp on him.

Or he could have led her up the garden path, which is part and parcel of life, before getting posted to a different job.

Letters know OP....Grin

icecreamsundae32 · 19/07/2019 17:48
