I need advice
| Tue, 04-13-2004 - 3:06pm |
I am 18 years old and I like this guy that is 34; he likes me too. We spend a lot of time together. He has four kids from a previous relationship and I have two from a previous relationship, so we do a lot of things with our children. We have gone to the movies a couple of times. He makes me laugh and smile that's why I like him. We have a lot in common, but a lot that makes us different. I am not the average 18 year old. I have been through a lot and more mature then the average. I have a have trouble with trusting people and I feel like I can trust him and I feel comtorable around him. Please give me advice on the age differnce. I would also like advice on letting him know that I like him without coming out and telling him straight up? I am shy when it comes to guys and I have never really done the dating thing. Please give me your 2 cents.

I feel like the other two posters before me, that even if you've scrunched a lot of living in your 18 years and even if you're a grown up and different 18 year old than the rest of them...you still have a lot of living and growing up to do. Even though. I know because I was an 18 year old much like you, very mature, very grounded, very together...impressed 'adults' (most of which seemed more immature than me) all the time...and I know that when I look back at myself that while I was mature and together for 18, I was still 18. I'm sure that you're a great mom and stuff...but maybe you should give yourself some time to have some fun before you think to get serious again?
And to answer your last question about letting him know that you like him without actually saying the words...he knows. No one spends their free time with people they don't like, right? That's my point. You should do the dating thing and learn about dating. Let the guy pick you up, pay for your movie, take you for a drink afterwards and then bring you home. It's fun and it's a learning experience, too. I like this sort of guy and not that guy, etc. Have you checked out the single dating mom board? Join us.
