A female United States age 30-35, *il_dreamer writes:

Okay I grew up and I am a lot more mature and smarter when it comes to relationships and guys. And yet, I have a question and it has been bugging me for so long. I REALLY like this guy, he is smart and sweet and funny, all I want. I can talk to him about anything and basically tell him everything, like a best friend. But he is in college and I am a senior. He says he never liked anybody as much as he liked me but the age difference is really bothering him. He said if I was in college, he would have definitely asked me out a long time ago. But my in my opinion, the age doesn't matter to me. He is about to be 3 years older than me in a couple months. And he doesn't even see me that much! We hung out once this summer. What kind of excuse is that for not seeing me a lot during the whole summer? I know he can't be busy 24/7 and he should make time for me if he is if he says me he likes me as much as he does. We met through work a long time ago so I know how he is (he’s not a creep or anything) he is the guy I want to be with but if he doesn't try, which is what he's doing right now, then I don't know what he expects from me. He said he wants to see how the school year goes and if everything stays the same till next summer and if we feel the same, than we can go on from there when I’m in college and 18 and all that...ugh HELP! He didn't even see me on my birthday! He lives like 3 min. away.

RAINORFIRE agony auntIt can be weird having a younger girlfriend. A lot of people won't understand especially if she's still considered a minor. You can look at the many posts on this site condemning it.

Don't try to make sense of this. No means no. I suspect there's more to it than he's telling you but I don't think you should waste your time trying to find out.

He didn't even come to your birthday. That's wack. Your age difference is not a big deal, he's using it as an excuse, probably. Let this guy go. Save yourself the wondering.

rcn agony auntTo me, it sounds as if he's in college, so he wants to known for dating college girls. Then you'll be in college, so then he can date you once you begin. I'd ask him to be truthful, and why does he feel this way or what his true intentions are.
