Not that there is anything wrong with 55. It's just that I see him as strictly a nice neighbor that I appreciate the help he has given me.
If he were single I wouldn't think twice about dating him or allowing him to touch my butt. The strange thing about it was that it was a very light touch, but I know I didn't imagine it.

I started to think about this post. I have enlarged the part that I have now considered once again. Given that you feel this way, I am wondering if it possible that you are unknowingly giving off subliminal messages that you are attracted to him. I really think that this is possible and the man is simply confused.
Wow, Intrepid, at the risk of repeating myself, ^^^^^ what he said.
I'm still advocating blunt, followed by snapping, if necessary. Snapping closes doors that might not need to be closed. Blunt gets the message across and leaves the door open for a future platonic relationship. Think about the relationship you would want to have with this COUPLE and proceed accordingly.
