Do something, for sure. Maybe if you see him again on a weekend night, ask if he wants to join you for a beer somewhere nearby so you two aren’t the biggest losers in town. Something coy yet flirty, hehe.

Yesssssssss! Love this. You have to do something if not just yet, sometime, right? Can’t wait for the follow up!!

Do what my elderly neighbor did. Bake something, give Hot Neighbor a few slices/pieces on a REAL plate (no plastic or paper). That way, he has to RETURN your plate – has an excuse to come and see you, then. Worked for my neighbor – the “send food on a real plate” trick resulted in a 15-year relationship.

don’t wait. just go for it. and while you’re asking for a cup of sugar drop a hint at what you’re baking and ask him if he’d like to come over for a slice or peice after its done. if yes, you better bake, girl!

it doesn’t hurt to make new friends, especially if thye’re your neighbors!!!!

Wait till you hear him leaving then “conveniently” be leaving at the same time too. Then you get more time to talk with him and get to know him

I have a hot neighbor too, but he ended up befriending the girl next door and hangs out with her all the time. But the good news is she’s a lesbian so I’m keeping my fingers crossed he will fall in love with me.

I am in the club that says, the next time you are both at home on the weekend…ask him to live the dream and have some drinks and watch some TV. Go for it!!

Whatever you decide, just be careful. If you do get involved and things sour, you still have to live next door to him until someone’s lease expires. Good luck!

I definitely think you should go for it! He’s hot AND right next door. Invite him over to watch some football this weekend. What guy doesn’t like that?!? Good luck!

I would have to agree with the food/baking route. Offer to share some with him; it will be appear neighborly as well semi-flirtatious =) Perfect combination!

Ooh how exciting! :)
I like the idea of asking him over for a beer- low key, could simply be considered “neighborly” and could also be easily taken further. Go for it!

I’m not sure if I’ve ever commented here or not, but I read your blog! love it. So, I’m definitely in the same situation with my neighbor. He’s not my next door neighbor, though, he lives in a house across the street from my little apt building.. I’m thinking about asking for a couple nails to hang some frames (that I don’t have) or something like that..

I agree with the make a casual move sentiment. Make it seem like seredipity played a part in your invitation and not like something you’ve been planning for a really long time. I also agree that food is a great seque. Bake something, go over there say you made it for the office and it made a lot more than you were expecting, invit him over to share and have a glass of wine. It’s perfect!

His “living the dream” comment reminds me of a flight I took from Vegas to Chicago. I was working in Vegas and flying back late Thursday, first class. I was sitting next to a hot 30-something. Everyone else in first class was gray-haired. While all the other business guys started drinking, the hottie and I both fell asleep for the entire flight. As we were landing (and wiping sleep from our eyes), he looked at me and said, “we’re the life of the party, eh?” Funny.

Why not just ask Ian over for a beer? Totally neighborly without being creepy or coming on too strong.
