Why would a younger guy be interested in me?

Anonymous
Here's a great story. I met this young guy five years ago, at the time he was only 18. I am 16 years older then him. He is now 23 and I am 39. I am divorced and have two children who are 16 and 15 years old. Guess how I know him...he's my friends son! So for the past five years I see him on occasion and there has always been a very strong mutual attraction and some flirting. Over the past two years he would even give me a late night drunk call and/or text. He would say that he wanted to see me and that he knows that I feel the same way. I would always turn him down and say that it's not appropriate because he is so young AND is my friends son. However, this past weekend there was a BBQ at his mom's house, and he was home from college (yes, he's still in college, his last year)...we started texting each other at the BBQ...attraction and sexual tension was very high...long story short he came back to my house and spent the night. We had an amazing time! The next day he had to go back to college, a good 10 hours away. We didn't discuss hooking up again but no doubt I will see him again when he comes home. Not sure what answer I'm looking for here. Just curious why this very hot 23 year old has had such an attraction for me for so long and now that we slept together what now? or nothing? and that's fine too...just wondering what he could be thinking now. any thoughts guys?
