Search Results: dating a girl who never dated before

I'm not really the girl who falls for "bums". I work in a store. His mother works with me. I love his mother, she's amazing. He works in the back, we work in the front so I don't really see him a ton throughout the day. One day he was helping me bag on a SUPER busy day, and we started just kinda saying "Hey" to one another, and now he always comes up to the front and sits on a bench during his breaks, something I'd never seen him do before. And he ALWAYS says hi to me when he first see's me. He walks down ALL the registers the long way to see if I'm there to say hello. He does the same thing when he's saying good bye. On the rare times that I leave before HIM, I go to the back to his area and flit about until I find him, and then I just talk to him for a bit before I leave. He teases me a lot about dating. The other day he was mentioning how his car was broken and then was like "So if I get a date I'll have to show up on my bike and she can ride in the basket." and then was like "Well you could fit in a basket, you're so little." (because I'm tiny.)
I used to think that he only said bye to me because he was saying goodbye to his mother and I was like a pit stop, but today his mother didn't even work and he STILL went down the registers until he found mine and said bye. THE PROBLEM though, he's 7 YEARS older. Plus he's working retail and not in college or anything. He's genuinely a good guy though. He's expressed that he does want to go college but can't afford it, and I'm not in school, but he's expressed that he thinks I should go. Only he doesn't do it in a way that it's demeaning, it's like he GENUINELY wants better for me. And the other day he had asked me if his mother was at work yet, I asked why, he replied sincerely "I just wanna make sure she made it in alright." And, they say how a man treats his mother is an indication of how he'll treat you, and I've never seen him be anything but kind and pleasant to his mother.
I just don't know what to do?
