QUESTION: Into a guy 12 years older than me, I'm 25 and a PhD student here and
he's 37, any advice?
We met at a week long conference and just clicked
naturally, we both had a lot in common and got along extremely well.
He's an extremely polite guy and being some what stand offish to the
idea of us being together, particularly as he expressed a lot of his
colleagues and friends are going to judge him to be with a much younger
women. Advice? I'm not really sure how to deal with the topic as he
consistently brings up our age gap.
he is doing that so you WILL date him. Hope on the old hot man ride and enjoy but don't expect it to go anywhere necessarily and don't be surprised when you find out about the wife.
ReplyDeleteYeah don't listen to 1. This site needs a stupid filter for comments like these.
DeleteAs someone who has dated 12+ years younger I'd say go for it. It will be a different experience for sure, but once you get over some of the generational gap shit it's not too bad. It may look a little unusual on his side though as people will be suspicious to his motives as people always think that one should 'stick to their own age.' But fuck it. The relationship is between you two, if you click go for it, see where it goes. #1 sounds like an idiot.
ReplyDeleteHe may be somewhat old school. I know when I was younger the social norm was to date and then after a lengthy relationship you'd fuck. Now people fuck just because, which to me is pretty awesome, no complaints there.
He's just fucking you and being polite about it duh lmao these hoes lookin for a hubby
ReplyDeletewhen you work up the sweat, you can play with the stick
ReplyDeleteBad idea. If you don't regret it now, you will later.
ReplyDeleteLet him know that you're genuinely interested in him and to stop treating you like a kid. The last line just screams immaturity. If he says no, then so be it, he missed out on an opportunity with a great girl.
ReplyDeletePlaying the victim will turn him off completely.
