asked housemates sister out!

    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?

    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.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,099 ✭✭✭tabby aspreme


    Did you ask her father's permission


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,516 ✭✭✭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.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,790 ✭✭✭Bret Hart


    **** in her handbag.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 25,734 Mod ✭✭✭✭Boom_Bap


    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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,235 ✭✭✭✭Cee-Jay-Cee


    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.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,394 ✭✭✭Pac1Man


    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?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,033 ✭✭✭✭Richard Hillman


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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6 mrtuckers


    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, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,161 ✭✭✭frag420

    Maybe she meant ask HER and not her sister.

    You asked the wrong sister FFS!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,080 ✭✭✭✭Maximus Alexander


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

    Asked her for a coffee? She's probably wondering who this fella from the 1950s is that's trying to woo her?!! Cop on and send her a picture of your dick!

    OK I'll wear the 'serious' hat here!

    Why not mention it to your housemate?

    What's the point. Seriously, unless the girl is dead she'd have written back if interested. She's not interested. Move on.

    See, this confuses me. If the housemate hinted that her sister was interested, why not tap her (noooo, not like that :D) for clarification etc. No harm done and yes, move on if the answer is no.

    Never have a threesome with two sisters. Have you even seen how sisters even fight over the remote control?

    She's not interested.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 681 ✭✭✭Mr. FoggPatches


    She obviously feels a bit weird going out with her sister's flatmate. The only way around this is to kill the flatmate, thus removing the awkwardness of the situation.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,915 ✭✭✭The flying mouse


    Try a different angle OP,

    Ask her out for a tea,


    She might not like coffee...
