northstar1 Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Nope, nor is there any pressure for this to happen. But he's a great kisser Actually, he stays in contact with me every day. We've hung out a few times, and he's made it clear it wants to continue to do so. I'm not doing any chasing, and I don't have to! It's great! Actually, he told me he wanted to ask me out, but wasn't sure if I had a bf and wasn't sure if I'd accept. He's told me many times he's so happy I went ahead and asked him out. It's been great! We've hung out several times this week. Either watching a movie, grabbing something to eat. To fill in the details... He is 23, but doesn't act like it. I never would have guessed by the way he presents himself. He doesn't leave me wondering. I know he likes me and wants to keep seeing me. OMG he has the greatest smile, and sexy sexy sexy eyes. He is soooooo easy to be around. There's no pressure for sex, but he's very affectionate. Major attraction there, personality and physically. I look at him, and I just want to smile! He's nice, but no doormat. He speaks his mind, but does it well. There's no lack of contact. I can't remember the last time I dated someone like this, if ever. Does he live at home?
Author dreamergrl Posted February 19, 2009 Author Posted February 19, 2009 Does he live at home? Nope, he has a roommate though.
Author dreamergrl Posted February 19, 2009 Author Posted February 19, 2009 Glad to hear that things are great! Relax, enjoy and don't let the negative nellies piss on your parade! Thanks! I've been enjoying it! I'm not in a rush for anything, but I have a feeling things are going in the right direction.
Island Girl Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 It sounds like a whirlwind romance! I am so happy for you. I guess it was worth having to spend time with all those frogs now that you may have finally found a prince!
Author dreamergrl Posted February 20, 2009 Author Posted February 20, 2009 Thanks everyone, for all the supportive replies! It's so much appreciated. I may have never gotten the nerve to even ask him if it wasn't for this forum! Do you think him being 23 and me being 27 is weird? I've never dated someone that much younger then myself.
likestolaugh Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Do you think him being 23 and me being 27 is weird? I've never dated someone that much younger then myself. it might feel weird for you and him at the very start... but I think it'll probably just melt away if you don't think of it as an issue... or think of it at all for that matter. I'm currently dating a girl who's 2 and half years older than I am... and it's not an issue.
bella23 Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I have asked my now bf, to go out at first... and he also worked at a store lol It was my first time asking a guy out and I was scared for the rejection. But I said what the heck times have change. We shouldn't wait for the guys to do the first step, cause we might keep waiting until we are old and gray lol
Star Gazer Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Do you think him being 23 and me being 27 is weird? I've never dated someone that much younger then myself. Personally, I wouldn't be able to date a 23 year old convenience store worker. But if he floats your boat, that's all that matters.
chrislovestosurf Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 i dont know if its weird, if i was 27 and the girl was 23 then it would be completely fine, i think. Depends on if she was still in college mode (hooking up and partying constantly.) Is this guy mature? Only thing that would worry me is some people at that age still think they are living in dreamworld known as college. Anyway im 31 and last month i was hooking up with this bombshell of a blonde who still thought she was in college, shes 23. Going out every night of the week and not going to bed until 4 am every night. Turns out shes a total whore, liar, druggie, idiot with the mentality of a freshman in high school. You win some you lose some, lol. 23 can be fine or it can be a nightmare.
RonZilla Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Finally a happy ending for you Dreamergrl !

I may have never gotten the nerve to even ask him if it wasn't for this forum! Don't be so modest. You had to do all the work. Glad to hear that things are going so well!
sb129 Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Aw Dreamergrl, a couple of little dates and already you are getting negative and doubtful comments! I think its great, and if you are happy then thats all that matters. Well done, and don't let anyone bust your bubble!
Squirtal Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Sounds like you've found a bit of a keeper there..good on you. My partner is 30 and 35..he was 28 when we met..age is just a number, and if he fits you and you him then there isn't a problem. Good luck and have lots of fun.

Author dreamergrl Posted February 21, 2009 Author Posted February 21, 2009 Well it's not as though he plans on working at a store for the rest of his life. He's enrolled to get certification that will help him get employment at as a mechanic. He's not all about going out and partying every night. He doesn't act 23, and I never would have guessed it. Now if he had no goals, was out partying, and had no maturity, I would completely have to pass, but given that it's not an issue, and how well things have been going, I don't feel so weird about it. Sometimes, just because of the age, but as others have stated, it shouldn't matter.
lostsunsets Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Your age difference is not an issue. I'm 49 and my wife is 53. We have been married for 29 years. Good luck.
Author dreamergrl Posted February 24, 2009 Author Posted February 24, 2009 Absolutely Great! We get along so well it's not even funny. The more I get to know him, the more I like him. We've been through a lot of the same things, he's so easy to talk to. He stays up front and honest with me. Lets me know what he's thinking. We had a talk yesterday, he told me that he's looking for something long term.

I hope things continue to go along how they are going. And he said he wants something long term so he is definitely SOOOOOOOO into you! Yay! Yay!
Star Gazer Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Oh, how great!!! Love is seriously in the air these days...
Balthazar Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Late to the thread Dreamer, but I hear things are going really well! Enjoy and spread the love! Cheers, B
