I run a sex-ed group with teens in a local community center. At that same center is a very attractive young man who does volunteer work with the kids - and I'm talking attractive- he actually makes me really nervous, something that I havent experienced in a long time! I know thats he's interested in me based on his body language and always extended eye contact, but we've never gotten an opportunity to have a conversation because we are both always surrounded by kids. We had been 'distantly flirty' througout the spring but I was not available until this summer and he is only recently back volunteering now.

In essence I'm looking for a way to let him know that I'm both available and interested without being overtly flirty due to it being my work (particularly considering the subject that I teach!). I would also like to find out how old he is b/c I fear he may be too young for me - yikes!

I'm going to make a real effort this week! Anyway, I could use some fresh ideas! Much appreciated!

You met him at some sex class? That's just bizarre.

not quite.... I TEACH a sex-ed class to teens (I'm 27).... he at the same time, tutors OTHER teens at that center (I suspect he is 21/22ish).

That's even more bizarre

But anyway, if he's obviously attracted to you, why not just smile and walk up to him? It would be hard if he never even looked at you, but it sounds more like the opposite.

hehehheheehehehehehheheheheheeheheh how ironic hehhheeheheheheheheheheheeheheheheheeh this is so funny heheheheeheheheheehehehheheheeheheheheheheheheh mmm well 27 isn't that old ... as long as hes not like 19 it should be ok :P... maybe.. well ... just meet him as hes in the parking lot or something away from the kids and ask him out to lunch or ... coffee or a snack or something... worst he can do is reject you haha.... unless he can get you fired or something... that would suck.... but i doubt something like that could happen...

im wondering what kind of sex ed it is.. i remember my third sex ed teacher.... (i was in a private school where they gave us some sex ed at 5th grade and 6th grade) and then in a public school where they gave it to me again in 8th grade... well anyway... she was really into NO SEX, SEX AFTER MARRIAGE and all this other crap.... i wrote an actually pretty intelectual blurb on it on some other thread on this forum... but... everyone ignored me... but ya... anyway... thats my little story......

good luck
