Yoda26 Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Hi, I have a crush on a man who is 50 (I am 26 nearly 27 he says he still feels like a 19 yr old) he is very intelligent, I find it very easy to chat to him and we both feel comfortable together. On Friday night we were at a party (he is a friend of my sisters late partner) and we got talking and we wouldn't leave each other's side, he said how he has ready meals for dinners and is busy with his work. Anyway I was abit drunk and towards the end of the night, I managed to get a cuddle from him and I kept putting my hand on his shirt but he did not move away. I must add he is abit like Sheldon in the Big Bang Theory. Anyways he got my number at the end of the night and I woke up to a text thanking me for my company and how I helped him over come a difficult situation (he doesn't like big crowds) easy for him to handle. I replied back and he sent another text how he wasn't feeling good (he wasn't drinking) and how he was getting a cold and again he was thanking me, I replied back and have not received anything back. I know he is very busy and very shy. I want to send a text asking him whether I could cook for him one evening, would this be a right move? x
rocketman122 Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 he may be busy or maybe you intimidate him. who knows. give it a day or two. I would go on a date or 2 before, then suggest it. or how about cooking together? nothing more romantic IMO..no need to jump the gun.
Author Yoda26 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Posted January 20, 2013 Thankyou, I am new to the dating game and not too sure what to do (I was in a relationship for 8 years)
ja123 Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Although I think some May-December relationships can work, the fact is is that he is significantly older than you. Why don't you try to cultivate some other dating opportunites with people closer to you in age?
rocketman122 Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Why don't you try to cultivate some other dating opportunites with people closer to you in age? why? let her try and see if it works for her. who says that owym/omyw cant work out? she didnt ask about whether the age was ok. they had a good time and are enjoying each others company so why even bring it up? it must be your own personal issue thats the issue. my friend who's a bodybuilder as well is 48 and has a wife whos 27 and they get along great so whats the issue? I personally wouldnt do it but if the couple get along, whats the problem? OP, if youre having a good time, have good conversation with him, he understands you, treats you nicely, respects you, is attentive and caring, age means jack shiyt! try it and see if it works for you.

carhill Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Since he's a friend of your sister's late partner, what do you know of his relationship history? IMO, he's either the most innocent 50yo out there or he is very smooth. Either are OK, depending on what you want. What do you want?
