New to the forum. I've never really had a problem with women.. dated a bunch, had a bunch of girlfriends, yada yada. Anyways, I have a hot neighbor who is significantly older than I am. I'm 25 and I'd estimate her age around 35-40. She's really hot and really single. We've chatted a few times, but only neighbor talk... ie: nice weather, hows you weekend, etc.. I really want to game her as I've never been with an older woman, but I cant think of a good excuse to go knock on her door. Waiting around to try to catch her walking to her car is just....creepy. Ideas?

Cougs, god their wild...anyway this is good for you.

Here is my suggestion:
Phase 1 is to establish more than just neighbor talk. She is your neighbor, it can't be weird to take some friendly advice from time to time. Unfortunately knocking on her door is a little weird unless you "need" something. Fortunate for you, in this case you will "need" something. Cook something, nothing to big, something you're able to do, or bake something, yes i know this sucks, or maybe not, but the beauty in this is you will require a little taste test from her (no not that kind, not yet at least) You could also buy something, and ask her what she thinks of your what ever you buy (food wise)
Being that she is older, it should stand as something that you cook, however that is not the important thing here, just food for thought.
At this point you can open up to some playfulness such as saying "That'll be 2 bucks" once she tastes them
Phase 2: Escalation
You've got to this quickly so that you are able to pull it off, begin to do behave a little nervous as if tomorrow you've got to get these baked goods in because your little sister has a competition at school or something, and she really wants to win lol, make it up you know. So you will then say "you know these cookies *for example* are good but need a bit of a womens touch, do you bake?" She will either say yes or no, if she says yes perfect, you say: "Thats great, hey what do you say i make us some coffee and you help me bake these (cookies)" which will allow you to have some time together and this is where you use all those pua skills negs, kino. If she says that she does not know how to bake, you'll say "haha, well i can't allow this, i'll make us some coffee and we'll bake these cookies"
Phase 3: you're either doing this at your place, or her place, none the less we've got somewhere here the rest is really up to you and how you play this, i've just provided my opinion on how you can knock on her door and quickly escalate
