So I'm 23, and I work at a Timmy's as a cashier/server, for the past couple of months there have been these high school girls who seem to have taken a real shining towards me, I suspect one of them is infatuated with me based on how they behave, her friends are always really friendly towards me as well, but she always gets the stage when we interact.

 

They come to say hi even if they aren't buying anything. Yesterday the one I suspect likes me mentioned it was her birthday, I wished her a happy one and asked if she was planning anything special out of polite interest, she said she wasn't. Today I saw her again and asked how the rest of her birthday went, she basically replied that the real celebration would be tonight, right after that following up with the question of what time I would be off from work.

 

Thankfully they didn't show up to come try and get me to join them, but I certainly feel like they're building up to that. I'm flattered of course, but she just turned 17, I'm 6.5 years older than her.

 

I'm not 100% sure she's infatuated with me, but I still feel like it's more likely than not. From another person's perspective reading this they may come to the conclusion that they're sort striking up a mock relationship, but I don't really feel that sort of vibe, and being paranoid about that sort of thing, if I don't suspect it, it's probably not there.

 

It's kind of sad really though, I would totally date her if not for all the social stigma involved. I wonder though, perhaps she doesn't know how old I really am, people often underestimate my true age, don't suppose that would matter much though, it's typically the older person that gets looked down upon and not the younger person.

If she's over the age of consent then give her the birthday present she's quite obviously looking for.

 

In simple English, be a man.
