Search Results: does he take time to get over her

He is of same origin as me but went abroad to study but I have been in my home town ever since. I'm very simple and have a small family of just me mom dad and my bro. We never saw or met each other in person but he wrote to me in FB which I ignored twice for a year and finally replied one fine day and after that we talked for 2 days all day and suddenly on day 2, he asked me for a serious relationship with intention to marry and I agreed. He also introduced me to his mom on the video call right after that on the same day ( after our second online date got over). We never sext-ed but we did talk about love, got to know each other fast track, our hobbies, education and career. It's funny that we are together since more than a year now 2020, 3rd April ( I was 23, he 24) we entered into a serious relationship ( he proposed to me). He is richer than me ( which I got to know later). His mom said me that at 26-27 you both will get married and both are very excited. I don't know sometimes how can anyone be so confident so fast? How can his mom/family be so confident for me? He is honest and loyal too and surprisingly I've been too. His dad and all relatives know of me too. Sometimes I used to be afraid if they're playing me or anything, but I tried to research to check if he is genuine and it turned out that he is. One thing is that he lied to me about the fact that his dad is in textiles but his dad is a director of a fortune 500 company. We talk less ( does not share his lifestyle ) but he keeps assuring me that he loves me may be so that I don't feel insecure or inferiority complexed. He tested me many times to make sure I'm not a gold digger ( which I'm not). I refused to take gifts or give one and anything else related to money and yesterday on a conference call with him and his mom, his mom keeps opening up to me like once in 6 months, of what all they have, slowly and I feel good but I don't express that I feel good and I'm like ok and then we end the call.

Fresh friendship, a few months in, we bonded over being counselors to youth at a camp. I had no intentions of even remotely considering someone so young for me, but somehow I find myself seriously attracted to him and despite the age difference, we surprisingly have so much in common. He's even discussed how, despite his age, he's ready to find the one, marry and have kids, that he's tired of games with those his age. (not that I've even remotely brought that subject up to him, as we are not currently involved romantically).

I think there are times when it's apparent and undeniable when you have that chemistry with someone and you both can feel it and you know, but it's left unsaid. He recently just found out that my ex was 5 years younger than me and he honestly seemed shocked by it and looked over at my close friend and said, "well she sure likes the young one's doesn't she?" to which she teasingly replied while looking at him, "she sure does." He is 20, about to be 21 and I am 29 soon to be 30, like I said, a significant age difference. I know this is totally unorthodox. We made friends with one another before we knew the age difference.

The chemistry, the bonding, the flirting, it's all there, except he is not taking steps to advance, and neither am I, since I am the woman and I'm older, I do not want to come across as weird or overstep. Is it possible that while there may be attraction and all the right connections there, that he just will not consider it because of our age difference? Guys, what's your opinion? If you bonded so amazing with someone older than you, even if you had feelings, would you refuse to take it any further because of the age difference?
