    Hi Guys,

    Met this girl in work bout 2 months and she from same town i am and we hit it off straight away talking etc. Just for the record she is beautiful to :). After few weeks i was moving to another office and was going to ask for her number to go on a date sometime but i chickened out of it and it really bummed me out afterwards and i regretted so much cause i wasn't sure if i would ever see her again but said if its meant to be its meant to be.

    Anyways few weeks later i got a message off a mutual friend saying she wanted to talk to me and gave me her number, anyways when i rang she was saying if i fancied moving in with her and few other people as they needed someone else and she knew i was looking. I said yeah sure and we moved in together without properly thinking about it. Now i really like her and we get long great and kinda dunno what to do cause i live with her now.

    She ended in a long term relationship bout the time i originally met her so i said id take a step back and just leave it but i feel im getting mixed signals off her. She says things like i wanna stay away from men for now but then a conversation we had the other was she was saying she has never been on a date before kinda felt like she was hinting at me to ask her and then later that day she said she has joined this kayaking club and asked if i fancied going with her sometime which i said sure but dunno was this her asking me on a date or as a friendly housemate???

    Would really love some advise cause im hopeless at this sort of thing and dunno how to handle it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    1. Take her out for a drink.
    2. Get drunk
    3. ...
    4. Find new place to live

    :)

    In all seriousness OP, just go with the flow. Housemate relationships can work or not work, just be relaxed and enjoy yourself, and be honest with her when the time comes, and whatever will be will be. Preferably Step 3, naturally.

    Id say give it a couple of months living and getting to know eachother better, and see how that works , then maybe suggest a movie , or something outside of the house.

    I was in this position & knew if didnt work out id most likely have to move out etc, lucky for me it work out, we eventually moved to our own apartment dating a year now.

    Be careful here, this in all likelyhood will get you friend zoned very quickly.

    My advise would be to act on it. Moving isn't the end of the world if it doesn't work out

    Flirt with her starting now and keep escalating. If she isn't interested she'll let you know. Fortune favours the bold, don't wait.

    Echoing the above, do NOT get in that kayak until you've sealed the deal OP!
