Question - (13 April 2013) 4 Answers - (Newest, 14 April 2013)
A male Egypt age 26-29, anonymous writes:

I like this girl and really looking forward into having a relationship with her.I am an Egyptian and she is a tourist so i think i can do a lot for her to see my country like taking her to the red sea,watching the sunset from the pyramids,cinemas and lots of stuff that she might enjoy but i have this problem i went to the building where she lives right next to my building and asked the doorman about her

i trust the guy so he told me that she is a student in the AUC(American University in Cairo)and that's where a bomb fell over me that i found out that she is a bit older than me I am 17 and she might be 20 or 21.When we meet we don't get the time to talk so she doesn't know much about me except my name. She is really nice and i would love to spend my time with her. So here is my question would it work? I would do anything because I am really in to her and feel like i wanna help her and be a better person even if it costs to give some things like smoking and shisha just to be a better person.So please give me some advice.

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

How i got to know her was simple i was at the super market and she was there and she was getting some water bottles so she needed a plastic bag so i helped her and she thanked me before she left i got some information about her like she was student in the AUC and she was actually half american half iranian .So from time to time when we meet we get to talk and ask her how was she and how was her time in Egypt

So_Very_Confused agony auntyou like her but you don't know much about her...

do you have a crush on her perhaps and have said hello and smiled and that's it?

she's not a "tourist" she's a student... so if she's living there she's probably familiar with many thing you want to introduce her to.

the age difference would not bother me if you are mature and responsible.

but I'm sensing this is a teenage crush on a woman that may not see you the same way...

so how did you meet

what have you talked about so far

etc...

it's very possible it would work but the differences between a high school boy and a college girl are immense.

more information about how you know her and what actual interaction you have had with her so far is important to how we proceed.

This other guy told you she's at the AUC, you didnt know that already. You didn't even know a basic thing what she's doing in the country.

What do you guys talk about?

Make an effort for you guys to know each other, and things should flow naturally. From what you've said i wouldn't be surprised if she sees you as boy next door, nothing else.

Age is not a problem but in your mind you're taking things too far when they haven't gotten to that point yet. Get to know each other first.

A male reader, CMMP United States +, writes (13 April 2013):

I don't think the age difference is probably as important over there as it would be if she was at home. As long as you don't act a lot younger than her it may not be an issue.

Why do you like her when you've barely had any contact with her? Is it because she's different? If so that's fine, but don't let it blind you to the "real" her.

You need to ask her out in a bold manner... Maybe approach her, make small talk, but then tell her you'd like to show her some cool things about your city. Don't be surprised if she doesn't say yes right away. Many Americans think that people are always trying to take advantage of them when they're in a foreign country.

If she says no maybe scale your offer back a bit. Tell her you know of a really nice restaurant that you'd like to take her to or something.
