I fancy the plumber. HELP!

[PawPatrol24]

Recently single 26 year old Mumma here.
This particular plumber has come over twice the past 2/3 months to help with various things around my rented place.

He is is absolutely stunning. In his 30's. Three children. Not with the mother, but no idea of any girlfriend. Lovely to my very chatty, curious 3yo (obviously having seen her when fixing up the place).

I am sure there is a little chemistry but I'm not sure if I'm projecting. Something in the way he mentioned me being a full-time Mum, the smile on his face as he left and mentioning he's not with the mother.

He's said he'd keep me updated with various bits that need doing. Everyone says to see if he followed through with this but I can't eat or sleep properly. I feel like a 16 year old girl again!
I don't wanna step on no ones toes, but I also don't want to waste an opportunity.

Advice?!

I also couldn’t see anything wrong with what you said toocold, I went back and thought I must have missed something but nope!

Givemeabreak88 thank you! I went back over it too thinking I may have posted on the wrong thread or something.
I don’t mind being called out if I’ve genuinely been rude or nasty but I don’t think I have been.

@Bearnecessity could you clarify what was said that’s upset you? You’ve left a lot of us very confused here!

I’ve just gone through the effort of reading back through all of toocold’s posts on here and I think you must have misunderstood something they said because there’s nothing ‘snide and nasty’ there

I've done the same and I've no idea what @Bearnecessity is on about either.

Love me some internet drama but this ain't it.

Why is this thread still running?! OP texted the plumber, he didn't respond. END OF!

Are you seriously coming onto threads and telling people to stop discussing the subject?

As in are you really serious right now?

😂

Ah yes.... but in that time since the thread started the plumbers split from his girlfriend and is back on the market, and op's boiler is up for a yearly inspection.

Maybe @Bearnecessity is the plumbers wife!

@greendress789 yet you still commented keeping it in active 😂

MN is a bit batshit today. I'm assuming it's the lockdown.

I was thinking the same about you too cold.

@toocold54

Maybe *@Bearnecessity* is the plumbers wife!

Yes @toocold54

And you're the plumber's current girlfriend and the wife @Bearnecessity has a vendetta against you !

It all makes sense now.

Since the trolls are piling on I'll be leaving you here....or is that just too cold name changing repeatedly....ho hum....

Well looks like we will never know what the “offensive” comment was, I’m guessing they either misunderstood what you said toocold or mixed you up with another poster and now too embarrassed to say 😬

Just adding an extra interpretation. My dad is a plumber and has no choice but to go out to work, in multiple people's homes, during lockdown. Including vulnerable elderly for heating issues etc.

Because of that, he's really careful, sticking to the lockdown rules to a T. There's no way he would meet someone for a cuppa right now, no matter how interested he was.

When lockdown is over, you might get a call/text. Either way, you were brave to message him, well played.

And you're the plumber's current girlfriend and the wife @Bearnecessity has a vendetta against you !

I did ask her at the beginning whether she had me mixed up with another poster but she seemed adamant it was me. What strange behaviour!

@Bearnecessity I apologise if I offended you/the OP but considering that you can’t even say what I said that was so offensive then I’m guessing I didn’t say anything and you carrying it on instead of just owning up is pretty pathetic!

I've just searched the whole thread for your offensive comment and thought I'd got myself lost somewhere! Definitely seems like @Bearnecessity was mistaken, maybe they'll come back to clarify

Well done for trying OP. Shame he didn’t reply even to say thanks but no thanks. I’m impressed that you’ve not taken a dent to your self esteem. Nothing ventured nothing gained and all that. Hope there’s someone nice in your near future.

Doingitaloneandproud 😂😂 I hope they do so I know what the hell I said that was so nasty and snide lol.

It’s quite weird behaviour because every post they have included my name but not called anyone else out so they definitely have taken an issue to something I’ve said.

I’m sticking by the idea that she is the plumbers wife!

@toocold54

I guess we'll never know unless we contact the plumber.... I'll give him a text tonight at 11.

@toocold54

😂😂😂

Showing solidarity for @toocold54 because clearly she is a plumbers wife like me and we all know they cheat!

We need your sympathy, us poor tradespeoples wives with our nasty cheating husbands.

Because a man cannot enter a home with a woman on her own without becoming overwhelmed with the urge to try it on with her.

And the OP is obviously deluded to think that a man who is separated with kids who worked in her home is nothing other than a sleaze ball cheater and she was absolutely daft to think they had a connection and ask him out.

Only on Mumsnet.

I said the same up thread a few days ago
