Big Crush > from Haruhi (20-somethingfemale)6 answers

So, I'm attracted to this guy, right? He's a stand-up nice guy, shares...show more

quite a few things in common with me, we get along great, and he's fairly fit and attractive to boot...There's only one tiny problem...he's 18 and I'm 23...I know he's technically legal to date, but the thing about it is...I met him when he was a student in a group I was teaching at church...I already know the dangers of this situation, and I want to wait until he's no longer considered a youth student before I become fairly obvious (if, at all) about my feelings toward him...I've been told to wait till he's 19, or even 20...I want to...I'm never one to make the first move. No one knows of this attraction, except my sister who keeps me accountable...Still, it gets frustrating at times...I guess my question is, am I such a freak for feeling this way?..Is it ok to want to eventually pursue something with this guy?..

I think you should try to date him now. ..
..
After all: ..
..
a) it's completely legal..
..
b) if you wait until he's 19 or 20, who knows what could happen in that time? He might be married by then. carpe diem. ..
..
c) any 18 year old will be completely psyched that a 23 year old has a crush on him. ..
..
good luck!..

I would stay so far away from that one...
When I was 22-23, a ton of guys aged 17-19 asked me out. I said no to each and every one of them. Even though many were really really adorable. But I didn't want to end up on Oprah. ..
In a few years when you're in your 30s age might not matter much. But guys age a lot slower than girls. I don't care if you think he's an old soul. His mother, is likely going to think you're creepy. Go out with a guy who is old enough to buy you a beer. And who is not still living at home...
