Wooing my neighbor: I came. I hugged. I wooed. Now moving on. (1 Viewer)

The coffee vs. lunch thing I still think is a huge red flag, well that and the tats. 

The script poem tat is the trademark of crazy.  And it's always something stupid like "Always dance in the rain".  Or written in sanscrit so nobody knows wtf it says, and probably says I take it in the ###.
is this where I say "YOUR FACE IS A HUGE RED FLAG!" ?

 
No issue for me with coffee vs. lunch. I think tapping the brakes a little is a good thing. You just spent two days in a row together. The spark is there, you just don't want to smother it at this point. The fact that you're neighbors needs to be taken into account as well.

 
I wouldn't worry about the tats things. I am definitely not a tat guy, but my wife had one when we met and added another while we dated. She has since added another.

Told her from the get go that I wasn't a fan, but she is 11 years younger than me and smokin' hot. I'm no dummy.

:lmao:   :thumbup:

My favorite is "Not all who wander are lost." 

 
i think it would rule to see someone with huge tattoo written in ancient hiroglifics that actually says take that to the bank but have it somewhere that is not a money type part of the body like maybe on the front left side of your right shin you know just somewhere that no one ever says man i want to take that shin to the bank that is what im getting at anyhow i wish you the best with your coffee date bromigo take that to the bank in ancient egypt

I give this advice to every male friend I have.

Haven't had one not buy me a beer at some point afterwards.

 
Call me a hopeless romantic but I'd so much prefer the slow romance than the quick hot and heavy wham bam thank you ma'am.

 
"Though she be but little, she is fierce"

200K slutty English majors that'll be a buck sixty when they turn 30, this invalidating both clauses.

 
I'd rather coffee over lunch.

Firstly bc coffee is awesome. Second you don't need to eat, just drink awesome coffee.

Third you have all day so you can extend your appointment and she can too if you need to. Then get some lunch. 
This sounds vaguely famiiar, in another thread.. lol. As mentioned, it would still be a so what if it was coffee v dinner/drinks after 2 dates with kiddos. Don't let anyone get you into analysis paralysis.. :D

 
Nice work, NRJ.  You've got to be feeling sky high.  Given her personal situation and the fact that she says yes to seemingly everything you throw her way makes me feel like this is a slam dunk (to build a relationship, not necessarily sects which will obviously be part of the former anyway).

Re: the coffee vs. lunch and 'you should be moving faster' crowd, this isn't some 25 year old with no kids on Tinder he's trying to slam.  Allowing her to trust him and confide in him over coffee is important to NRJ's long-term goal, which is a relationship...not sects.    
not sure about this.  the guy is stalking her for weeks without knowing anything about her.

and someone point me to the moneyshot post from the BBQ please.  I can't wade through 48 pages here.

 
All ball busting aside, I think he's made enough clear signals here that he's in the clear for now. Not to say he may not get friend zoned too if our heroine starts to get a little second-guessy about getting wrong holed by the neighbor. But I'm not sure it'll be because he played "gabby good guy" too much. 

At coffee make it clear it's a date. Open the door for her at the very least. Do the ol' hand in the small of her back as she walks past you, through the door. Pulling out a chair is likely excessive for starbucks, but she needs to see #### like that.

IMO if you don't at least get a real hug (not a "thanks for the nickle grandma" side hug) at the end of this, she's going to think you're a #####. You probably don't want to try to suck face in the local dunkin' parking lot... but if a decent kiss isn't something you feel comfortable pulling off, then at least the hug. 

The "oo our knees brushed" #### is fine around the kids but you're going on a date, now. Time to man up a bit.

Neither is she... how's that bank account?

OP updated with the main "stuff", so really this thread is only like 8 posts and a bunch of shtick.

I appreciate that you're pretending to be a middle aged,  not-rich,  not male-model,  average guy who doesn't have supermodels throwing themselves at his feet.  It's an interesting social experiment to remind us FBG's how life could be,  if we weren't so fortunate. 

Now if you'll excuse me,  Scarlett J and Arianna G are begging me for more coke and ####.  *sigh * a FBG's life gets so boring sometimes. 

 
A 40 something divorcee with two kids finds a younger man interested in her and her baggage.  I do not see how this doesn't happen, unless you come to your senses.

 
I find this thread to be super entertaining.  Even though this is my first post on it--I have to be honest and say that I read up on it on a fairly regular basis. Congrats to the OP on his progress so far.    I hope your coffee date goes well.  Only advice I can give is to playfully flirt enough to make it clear that you are possibly interested in a bit more than friendship.  I'm not saying go full board "perv" mode--but just flirt enough to get the point across in a subtle way.   If that doesn't work--just talk to her like "SWC"--the babes love that. She'll be in your lap quicker than you can flip a light switch. Good luck.  

 
I'm really more excited for the aftermath... Like after a relationship fail with a neighbor, who moves? It's like a game of chicken, just it involves a house and mortgage. 

Personally I'd rather bang a coworker than a neighbor, easier getting a new job.

She's clearly thinking the same thing with the coffee date.

With the pace of this courtship, we have well into the fall maybe even winter before the OP gets laid.  Assuming this happens at some point, how in the world do you manage sexy time if she has the kids full time ?  Does she have to get a babysitter to come over to your place?  
pace? He met her how many months weeks days ago?

Given kids on both sides the pace is perfect.

 
Gotta start thinking ahead a little bit here. If she were to ever see this thread you are one sunk #####. You would be the Pariah of the PTA©, the creep of the neighborhood, the loser dad of all the loser dads.

So you need to think about how you use your electronics:

1. Do you have a laptop or desktop?

2. Do you have this site safely bookmarked as something benign, like Auto Parts Store?

3. Do you habitually leave your phone laying open on a table? Next to your bed? On the counter?

4. Do you ever leave screens open on your computers for people to see? 

5. Do you have a shutdown process every time, and I mean EVERY TIME, you walk away from a device?

You've come a long way. We do not need you to trip up on a rookie mistake.
Not so sure on this, as NRJ has been nothing but polite and classy, a perfect gentleman even here, and many of the posters have been reasonable. A few others however......

 
Honestly.... thread on something simple or what should be at 40 doesn't make sense.  Figured this game is simple for you... like saying "walk in as if you own the place" applies to life. You sound really insecure/not confident.  total turn off... (mean nicely). You're the man remember not 15..

Shes single for a reason an not married. If you want to do whole bond based on asking about her ex  or past go ahead.... Its a ploy or YOU could be u an let her open up talking about anything but her past. .. coffee date not something id endorse.  Shes been there done that. Meet at nice hotel bar . Thats not friend zone like Starbucks... seem way more cool breeze. Trying to recreate excitement not a soccer mom special on lifetime.  Ya and stop going to trash 50x a day... and dont wear "business casual" like ever other dude your age at whole foods... be different but modest. Yes starched polo an shorts /pants ** light... ur a single dude not dip #### reg joe.... she sees him 100x week at grocery Store.. i say all this figuring ur.good.looking savy comedic etc.. if not ur funked...

An working out few days week saying i eat much carbs makes me know ur soft.  You  arent on level to brag... ur a reg guy no hard body an thats ok.. but guy like.me comes in same time .... better hope she likes "nice guys"... if shes as hot as u say. Good luck boss. U got one thing right.. mouth piece is impotant.. hope.goes well an end.day be u. All advice is bs if not who u are inside. She.may not want.game.

My first date I wore penny loafers, white athletic socks with red stripe , plaid shorts and tie dyed T-shirt. My wife is hot with two tattoos. We've been together for 27 years and still have sex multiple times per week. And we have 4 kids.

If it's meant to be, it's meant to be.
