    I asked my housemates sister out a couple of weeks ago!

    We had been messaging, for a short while, innocent enough stuff, but could feel the tension building every time we met.

    Had been hinted to in the past that we were both single etc etc.

    She didn't reply to me asking her out for a coffee. Through a mutual friend I now know that my housemate knows that I asked her sister out. Seems like the thing that's going unspoken.

    I thought about it for a long time before asking her out. It's genuine, I like her, and wouldn't mess her about.

    Should I bring it up with my housemate or just let it slide. She hasn't been over to the house since either

    Well, don't bang her loudly in the room next to your housemate.

    So you think your housemate told her not to reply?

    The housemate fancies you, that's why he told her to stay away ;)

    No response at all? What are you getting worked up over?

    Well she's obviously not interested, kind of a non issue then isn't it

    Invite housemate out on your next date, as an awkward third wheel.

    I wouldn't bring it up with your housemate, instead let it slide into their sister.

    Maybe bring it up in front of your housemate and sister.
    One of them might like what they see

    What on earth are you going to say to your housemate?

    "C'mere, Kevin. Will ya help me bang your sister? She won't respond to me."

    To be honest this mess is beyond saving. Burn the house down and move on.

    Did you ask her father's permission


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,510 ✭✭✭Wheety


    Send the message again. She probably didn't receive it.

    Send it again tomorrow and everyday until she replies.

    It would be nice if she said that to him, instead of just blanking him. It can be very difficult to work up the courage to ask such a question to try and move the relationship somewhere else, and getting no reply can be painful.

    **** in her handbag.

    What did you actually write in the message to her?

    "We should get a coffee sometime"

    "I like coffee!"

    "Coffee?"

    "Coffee"

    "I want to wear your skin after getting coffee?"

    I agree its rude. When you're in that position no reply seems like a nicer way of letting them down though, even though in reality it really isn't

    Forget about saying it to anyone. She didn't answer so she's not interested in you. Why would you bother saying it to her brother, it's none of his business and as she never replied then it's a non starter. Forget about her and move on.

    I don't believe blasted with pi$$ has been mentioned yet.

    I'm unsure who the recipient of this steamy stream of ammonia should be.

    From the OP's post, the housemate is female.

    Is there anything to be said for a kick in the face?

    Inquire about her required dowry and if your own families reputation is sufficient for her not to be subject to an honour killing.

    Just to clarify, I live with her sister. Not her brother. And the sister I live with had hinted to me in the past to ask her


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,158 ✭✭✭frag420

    Maybe she meant ask HER and not her sister.

    You asked the wrong sister FFS!

    Are you sure she's not dead? If someone doesn't write back to me I assume they're dead.
