I'm a 26 year old crushing on a 19 year old. I don't see myself spending my life with him, but I feel chemistry everytime we talk. What can I do?

I want to move on but he always tags along with my friends everytime we do outdoor activities. I always catch him glancing at me and he tells me I look a lot younger than my age and wanted to know my secret to staying young. He was shocked to find out my age just as I was to find out his. He looks a lot older than 19. The last time we hungout he kept watching out for me by blocking off the basketballs that came my way. I find him attractive physically--very athletic, and personaility wise--very humorous. The only problem is, he's 19. I don't usually crush on guys like this, it's just we spend a lot of time together hanging out. I can't ask him not to tag along with my buddies. Should I stop going to their hangouts?

I was once a 19 year older who met a 28 year old who two weeks later became a 29 year old. We began dating quickly which turned into a two and a half your relationship. It remains my longest lasting relationship. Had she not moved away we would have lasted longer maybe even still today. This also remains the only relationship to end on a good note.


My point in all this is don’t let the age difference deter you from a possible good thing. Perhaps even the best thing.

Why are you so uncomfortable if you're both attracted to each other? Go with the flow and see what happens. Might be a flash in the pan thing, but so what. Might be a boost for both of you.

It sounds like you really like this guy.
You aren't doing anything wrong.
See what happens and enjoy it. You would always wonder if you didn't

Sleep with him, or move on
