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

Probably a question mainly for the ladies on here , so I've been working in a new office since January, and I have noticed their is a cute girl that works next door. Of which I've grown to like and wanted to get to know more. I've lightly flirted and got the hint she may like me back. Anyway about 2 weeks ago I finally asked her if she wanted to do go out for a drink some time, she said yeah we could do, so later that day, I went back and gave her my number and said txt me.. I've had nothin from her ,but since being back at work she has been gettin my attention while going past the window, and a top up of food when I went in today lol. I just acted Asif I didn't give her my number. So why say yes to go on a drink and not txt me? Then be friendly again. Also she is 18 while I'm 25 should . Any help much appreciated.

Not quite sure what's got in to Wise Owl with this one. An 18 year old can buy an alcoholic drink in the UK.

If she wanted/ needed an older guy to buy her a drink (which she doesn't), she would already have accepted the offer. So not sure what point Wise Owl is trying to make. And assuming the OP expects sex in return for a drink is a tad cynical and judgemental.

OP, you haven't been duped. She may well be waiting for you to make a proper first move. Giving you her number and expecting her to do the running is a bit half hearted. She might be a bit shy about texting you. Just go and ask her "are you free next Friday for that drink?".

I think 25 year old men and 18 year old women are fairly similar in terms of maturity levels so I don't see any problem there.

shrodingerscat agony auntInstead of waiting for her to text you, YOU text HER.

-NEVER- wait for people to give you what you want. You have to pursue it yourself.

Totally disagree wise owl. I'm a girl, and I wouldn't agree to something I didn't intend to follow through with.

Maybe she just hasn't got round to texting you yet? I think you should be confident and send her a cheeky text reminding her of the drink and take it from there. I love confidence in a man, and I'm sure shell love the attention too.

And the age difference isn't anything to even worry about. Good luck :)

To wise owl in the uk you can buy alcohol In a pub if your 18 teen so don't think that's the issue..

I could be something as simple as maybe she wants you to text her first or maybe she is dating . Look be honest with her ask her for a date .. If she says no she already got a bf be good natured about it and leave it be.

Good luck

You may not want to hear it from a guy; but she may already have a boyfriend. If she is only 18, her parents may not approve of her dating someone your age.

If she can't legally buy herself a drink, why not let a legal-aged sucker by her one. If he's also willing to top it with dinner, why not? He's probably expecting what she's not going to give him return. Tough luck!

Sorry, you've been duped. Leave her alone. She's too young anyway.
