A female Canada, anonymous writes:

This older man that I am friends with ( and suspect that he likes me as something more) was asking me if I wanted to have children. I told him yes I did. He told me to have them when I was young; and then he winked at me. He said I should have them young because I wouldnt want to be 60 when they were 18. He also said I would be a great mother. He is 42 and has never had children. I am 25. I know he wants children; everyone says he's so good with other peoples kids. Do you think he was hinting that he wanted to raise a family with me someday?

Phoebe Halliwell agony auntHey! Woah! Slow down one second. Seventeen year age gap if I'm not mistaken. Has he actually made a move on you? I'd stay freinds with him and meet someone nearer your own age.

Goooood Luck!

smeedle agony auntSlow down, lots of people make "off the cuff" comments like this, he was probably just talking in general to you about kids etc.

You are just friends and are not having a sexual relationship and you dont know if he likes you in a sexual way.

Do you want a relationship with him, he may be hinting to you that he would like to move your friendship from plutonic to sexual, or he may not.

If he is hinting at this then he may be testing out the water to see if you would consider having children with a man of his age, this could be a big issue for him and he does not want to invest in the relationship only to find out a way down the line that you dont want kids for another 10 years or maybe not at all.

You need to see what it is that he has in mind and to seriously think about what you want if anythink from him, he feels by the sound of it that his father clock is ticking and you need to decide if you want a child with him fairly early into any relationship.
