A male United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I don't know if I should pursue my crush...

I recently worked up some courage to finally talk to her, we had a good conversation on the phone. And I was thinking of going on to the second step of asking her out for some coffee where I could get to know her more.

But here is whats bothering... she is an graduate student but she has an internship this summer so she seems to be pretty busy...

Now I know I should just do it and ask her out and stop wondering if it will workout or not...but now that I think about it...even if she say yes there is just so little time for us to build a relationship before we are separate...I'm starting to think that if I should just back off, try to forget about her and not have to face the chances of rejection...or should I still try to pursue her? Will these kind of relationship work?

Thanks for listening!

I don't know...I guess it is just that I have a lot friends that are/were in distanced relationships and it worked out between them and it seemed to be OK, it is just that I tried to forget about it like any other girls, but this one kept stuck in my head even after years. And plus she is only 4-5 months older then I just don't know... but you are right for most parts..Thanks.

I perceive that she is a bit older., anon. This is a tough case at your age. I was there once.

She will be buried up with work as a grad student. She may not be seeing anyone else, but that does not mean that it will be easier for you. I think I can understand your feelings. She is probably a great gal...and intelligent..and interested in the same things you are. But, I don't see anything in it for you but friendship, anon. It will hurt, but, it will pass. Forget the romance, young friend. I don't think it can happen. Stay with a friendship relation. You can learn a lot from being friends with an older gal. Believe me. But, don't embarrass her with a sudden burst of emotion. That would ruin everything. Keep cool, anon. There are girls unlimited out there. You will meet the one for you.
