Updated | By Stacey & J Sbu
Well, that potential love affair went down the drain...
An attempt at flirting backfired when resident Penny McNatt made advances toward her 'cute' landlord in the hopes of getting cheaper rent.
It all started over a selfie with a broken tap. Watch below:

McNatt revealed on her TikTok account, @penny_mcnatt, that she got in touch with her "cute" landlord over text messages when she contacted him about a faulty tap in her kitchen.
She thought she could lure him in with a cheeky selfie by the sink as a tactic to get a decrease in rent and possible a love interest.
What a sneaky lady.

Penny shared her flirting fail through a text message chain.
The 25-year-old mother of two told her landlord: "Hey, my faucet in the kitchen is acting up again."
When the landlord asked for a closer look, she kept sending selfies.
Things didn't go to plan when the hot landlord replied: "Of the faucet, not you..."
Penny tried to play it off as if it was a casual mistake saying, "Oh yeah, my bad".
Although many fans caught second hand embarrassment from this awkward situation.
Some fans said: "I tried this and my landlord got a restraining order.," "I thought this was going to be satire, but it’s just embarrassing," "The secondhand embarrassment is making my stomach hurt," and "Imagine he would of said 'yup it needs to be replaced .''
We hope Penny has learnt her lesson and there won't be any more awkward exchanges like this in future.
Let's also hope that her love life doesn't go down the drain...
