So there's this guy I've been hanging out with since couple months ago. We kissed, I slept with him, but we didn't have sex, even we both wanted, but I told him it's too soon. he told my friend he would ask me to be his girlfriend, but the thing is I'm 18 only in 4 months and he's 23 and he is kind of afraid.
He told me I'm very pretty, we shared common interests, he seemed to be interested in me idk. He quit smoking, because he noticed that I'm against it. He gave me to listen to his favorite love songs lol. He gave me good advices that I wouldn't sometimes even get from my parents. He said we should wait till I'm 18 so we could hang out more, because my mom is very strict about guys, and he knows it. What's the matter here? He doesn't like me that much or is it age? What should I do to prove I'm old enough?
From having a relationship with an age difference of 5 years I've been where you are now. It seems to me like he is begin a very good friend, and he is also trying to be a good guy for you. if your not 18 yet it causes a lot of complications and hardships on a relationship with someone who is older than you. And if you want to be in a relationship with someone it is best to consider not only hem but their family and how they will react. You said your mom was strict about guys and it seems as if he is trying to be respectful of both you and your family, which is a very good thing. I wouldn't think he is going anywhere.
Don't rush a relationship it will happen and 4 months isn't that long you can get close you might start dating before that but being closer and better friends and knowing each other better can never be a bad thing.
I also don't think he wants you to prove anything, I think it is age and he is just trying to make sure that nothing goes wrong and nothing can hurt the relationship you have now or that might end up having.
If you have any other ?s specific or general just send me a message I would love to be of help, and I know how hard it is to go through this kind of situation without some help or people that understand . . . good luck :)
