got a neighbour who I fancy. only spoke to her 2 or 3 times as she is a few doors down. I rarely see her in the street so difficult to meet her. I think she is perhaps too good looking for me but still want to ask the question.
I am sure many blokes on here have had same scenario so interested to hear your views and outcomes. Also interested to hear from you ladies on the best way to approach this delicate situation. She will be mid forties as her daughter has just left home. I am 52 if it makes any difference.
There is a prize for the best answer if it works. A new hat and a wedding invite

Mate . Beautiful women say that they are hardly ever approached by men. Getting them is not hard but keeping them is . High maintenance girls take their toll on you.
Take your time . Find out about her . Ask about . Go to places she goes. Don't rush . Check that you have what she wants . Girls say they want humour. Friendliness. A guy with a decent job. Dressed nice. Clean . Nothing there that's impossible. Confidence is number one. Grow balls the size of beachballs and get in there . What have you got to lose ? Don't put her on a pedestal . Strut your stuff

personally i would ignore the growing of giant plums, that would make you look odd, beachball size is not a great look even with a nice suit.

Be a real gentleman and simply slap your tackle through her letterbox and shout in a Fred Flintone style bellow “ come and get it b1tch” while hoping she doesn’t have a dog or her mum or bf are round ! Thank me later

My boss always tells me “find the most beautiful girl in the bar and buy her a drink and walk away. Before you know it she’ll be trying to find you”.

My usual method is to stalk her, nick her underwear, use heavy breathing phone calls and send her letters with obscene suggestions.
Others will then arrange for you to meet, often in court in my experience.

Though this is a good tactic at a bar - doing it at her house will probably scare her.

Possibly. And it means you can't leave the bar until they do

If you are going to take some of the above advice ... and you do decide to shove some large plums down your shorts... make sure you push them down the front ... because down the back and she might think the sight of her has made you **** yourself.
Whatever you decide I hope it works out for you.
Its always best to be yourself and a good rule to follow is "if you cannot be good in bed at least be funny" as laughter always breaks the ice...
But dressing up as a Clown might not guarantee results if she suffers from Coulrophobia...

Find an excuse to pop round or start a conversation with her if you can. Example if you see her out jogging or something you can pretend you're into it as well and start timing your trips out to coincide with hers.

You didn't say if she was married - that could be a major stumbling block.

From the blokes point of view it is. Someone suggested sticking your cock through the letter box, that could be a majorly bad idea if there was a jealous husband at the other side with a large knife (or a pitbull).

Are you suggesting that there are circumstances when it might not be a majorly bad idea?

Er, umm, well, seeing as you asked and.....should the circumstance ever arise and.....since I have never found myself in that situation, I think I can definitely, with a fair amount of certainty but without being absolutely 100%, say there might not be any good time for it. Of course there may be some bad lads out there that think differently to me and for them I would say that if you are going to (and you shouldn't really should you) make sure the husband isn't a karate instructor with a short fuse and a tendency to jealousy, otherwise you might just find yourself having to make a quick exit out the back door staggering up an unlit lane in the hope he didn't see you sneaking out like a thief in the night. Those un-made-up roads can play havoc with the feet I'm told.

well I am liking this approach so far south west claret. Unfortunately though where does finding out about her begin to look like stalking? I am favouring a few accidental meetings including parking near her car and taking half an hour to scrape ice off my windscreen. That may look strange though next july so hope a plan works soon

Next time you see her say “Hi, I’m Claretnproud from up the road.I was hoping you were single so I can ask you out sometime? If she replies “what a coincidence, I’m(insert UTC username) and was just reading your thread”. You’ll know if it will last or not.

Well yes you could do well with that one but just had a thought, are you on speaking terms with any of your other neighbours if so they may know all about her.

Sure, someone else suggested jogging, go past her house every day so a double win, you may bump into her , smile and say hello. Extre bonus she will see that you look after yourself .
Focus on yourself most, get fit, dress well, no ******* jogging bottoms or baseball caps . No tops with whoever made its logo splashed across the front. Mind you if she dresses in that kind of gear and there’s a sofa in her garden disregard my advice .

I will be making subtle enquiries. I know the window cleaner quite well so will be asking if he has seen a boyfriend in tow. Fairly sure she is living alone. I spoke to her a few weeks ago and she told me her daughter had just moved out. Think I will ask her how she is coping living on her own and guage it from there.

Make sure her husband isn't in earshot then pluck up the corage. Failing that order something from Amazon,when it's delivered pay courier to drop it at her house then you can nip across to collect it,ice breaker. Tell her it's an extra large condom.

extremely. I bet there are a few forty something ladies on here who would enjoy a bit of wining and dining and all the good things they never had with their x hubby. So difficult to meet a nice lass in real life nowadays.

Ask her what her name is. Then a few casual words and build it up from there. If she's interested you'll know.
