So there is this guy who I like and he likes me back. We share the same faith and attend a lot of the same functions. We even went on a missions trip to Mexico together. The only problem is that he is 21 and I am 16. I know that it sounds weird, but I act mature for my age and he is not as 'adult like' as most others his age. But anyways, a couple weeks ago I told him I liked him because he was leaving to go off to college in a month, and when he responded he said that he wanted to talk with me in person. He also said to not feel awkward because there is nothing to feel awkward about. I saw him the following day, and we didn't have time to talk but everything was normal and we were relaxed. But for the past week he has been avoiding me. I have talked with my mentor about this and she said that he is probably struggling with his feelings right now and that's why he is avoiding me. Should I give him his space? or should I tell him to just be honest with me so we can talk and get it over with?

I say you should give him his space for a while
i think ur mentor have a point
because they guy have too much to think about
and you both have the age thing ( even though I don't think it's a big deal and I think it's completely normal ) but maybe he's taking that into consideration too

so just give him his space for a while . and I'm sure he'll talk to you about it when he's ready

and take it easy on yourself : = ]

Give him space. He is likely panicking because you're so young compared to him, that and the laws pertaining to underage sex, and possibly your faith having problems with these kinds of relationships. (Even if you didn't have sex until you're 18 and married, this kind of stuff still makes guys uneasy, the age gap is quite significant.)

It is also possible he is trying to stall until he gets to college so he doesn't have to deal with your feelings. He might not want to have a relationship. But, all in all, he needs his space, after all, you told him you like him so its up to him whether or not he reciprocates those feelings.

Also, as long as you're both mature and he isn't going to take advantage of you, I don't think your age difference is a problem, its just something that needs to take a little getting used to. :)

random-ren asked 20 days ago

Yes, most of the time! I really wish I had a boyfriend/girlfriend!

A little, because I feel left out.

Not really...

Nope! I have too much fun being single!

What's there to be annoyed about?
