Long story short I was doing some gardening and kind of started ugly crying lol and my neighbor heard me and asked me if I was ok…. I was embarrassed and said yes just had a lot on my mind. Blamed it on a project I was working on. Lately he’s been extremely kind and friendly ( he’s helped me take out the trash cans and bought me a bubble machine for my baby. we got to talking/he helped me make a wooden plant box and he asked me if I’d be down to have dinner. Dinner was really nice and I haven’t laughed or felt comfortable around anyone in a long time like that, but it seems flirty and I’m not ready. Felt like I made a mistake and I don’t want to be rude because he’s texted me.
As for life some say it isn’t hard & others say it isn’t easy. As for life some people have a lot on their plate & some people have a buffet. Some say communication is the key & some say they lost their keys. As for you better days will come. As for those days some will be good & some not so good & as they say tomorrow is another day.
In life we all need a hero & heroes come in all shapes & sizes & neighbors can be heroes as well. In this world I wish more people would be extremely kind & friendly like your neighbor was & is. As for your neighbor when you were gardening he didn’t hear your words at first but he did hear your tears & there is no need to be embarrassed about it. In life I always say you should try to face the sunshine & let shadows cast behind you. Let your neighbor be your sunshine or at least let him be a friend right now.

It all depends on your comfort honestly.
If you're not comfortable then it's not worth going. If you feel good and positive about it, then you could.
Nothing wrong about him though as he saw you crying and he wants to make you feel good. As in seeing a woman cry is big deal for a man with honor. He'd do his best to make it good for the lady. So he does seem genuine to me but you know him better.
He sounds kind of sweet. But if things don't work out, keep in mind you'll be "stuck" looking at him because he's your neighbor... He'll be hard to avoid.
Tell him exactly how you feel so he knows where you stand on things. Like you've told us.
You need to be honest with him. Tell him you’re not interested in a relationship rn.

it doesn't have to be a mistake... just be clear asap, dinner was fun, the laughs were better, just clear it up, that you don't feel ready for more and probably more than that, won't happen, if you don't want more to happen, ofc
Wow sounds fun! Go on date/dinner and be open that you are not keen for anything now. People prefers openness and honesty rather than dragging something on.
Nope all my neighbors are annoying but sounds like a good moment, you should let yourself have this, there shouldn't be any room for guilt of that's what you are feeling, if that's of course what you mean by not ready.
You are creating a disaster. Odds are you two won't work out and after you dump him you will have a hurt/jealous neighbor. This will be a lot of fun everytime a strange car is parked in your driveway overnight.
I have had the same neighbors for over 20 years and they are all good neighbors. I would go out with them.
First and foremost you need to be completely open and honest and not lead him on.
Absolutely. I get it if you’re not ready. Be honest and open. Always good to have a friend close by.
she is very nice so yes but with A line in the sand to start with.
What’s wrong with going out with your neighbor? It’s not like your boyfriend and girlfriend and you don’t have to have sex. What’s the problem?
Neighbors and workplace people can be problematic.
I’d go out for lunch, like it’s a friend thing…then keep the transition down to minimal and plutonic.If you are single and so is HD it's no problem
Then SAYS SO. I'm not ready yet but I'm really enjoying our friendship developing. Your both adults. Communication is key.
Well ofcourse if u r not ready it's different in tht case otherwise it is alright
Sure, go with him.
Just make sure it doesn't turns ugly with him
Yeah it sounds he really likes you and seems like a nice caring neighbor but if there no touching or emotional connection it’s okay.
Ugly isn't a good word. Everyone likes different features. there's someone out there for everyone.
Why was you crying and sire I would but only as friends
Maybe just Maybe
You don't eat where you sheet.
Do it go have fun.
