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!

He sounds adorable, you do too ❤️

Mumsymumphy · 09/07/2019 22:58

I am living vicariously through this thread! That 'new relationship'/exciting phase is great!

Can we all come to the wedding please?

louise5754 · 09/07/2019 23:00

Do things like this really happen?

What a huge risk he has taken going into your home and leaving his number?

What if you weren't interested and reported him?

Mrsmummy90 · 09/07/2019 23:04

Just found this thread!!

I'm so happy that your date with him went well Grin have you got another one lined up?

SmellbowPenisBeaker · 09/07/2019 23:05

I’m going to make you guys a wedding present out of Hama beads RIGHT NOW.

This is ace.

Celebelly · 09/07/2019 23:06

@louise5754 She invited him in, he didn't just let himself in!

ThePhoenixRises · 09/07/2019 23:07

What if you weren't interested and reported him?

She invited him in, he did not just walk in her house, uninvited and leave his number.

How fabulous!Flowers

This makes me smile so much. I wish you both all the happiness. Who needs tinder eh?

Apileofballyhoo · 10/07/2019 09:41

He sounds lovely, OP. It's a great sign that the time flew like that. I think having plenty to talk about is such a good thing.

I hope what you've posted about him isn't too identifying? Just a thought.

ChangedNameForToday · 10/07/2019 09:43

How lovely! My mum had a stroke when I was 25 and it derailed my plans to go and live and work abroad.

The fact that he sacrificed things to go and care for his mum speaks volumes about what sort of person he is. What a lovely guy!

Hope it works out well OP.
