This guy shows me a lot of interest and always wants to hang out with me.

 

Me and he met as friends and did not know each other's age.Now I know there is a big age difference between us.

 

He says he does not want someone older.

 

I am 10 years older than him and he says he cannot ask for a better company than mine.

 

He says he cannot contemplate even marrying someone 7 years older in some unrelated conversations we have had.

 

Will anything come off this or should I drop him ?

There nothing to drop. He hasn't asked you for a proper date anyway. If he does, you tell him what it is you want out of your dating experiences and let him tell you what he wants. If he says he's looking for a relationship, you mention that he's told you he doesn't want someone older and want to clarify what he wants with you at this point.

 

But until he asks you, I wouldn't even think about any of this.

You can continue to be friends with him but don't expect more.

I hate to be blunt, but his statements seem crystal clear. Why do you doubt them? Has he asked you to be in a relationship with him? Therein lies your answer.

He made his preferences pretty clear to you which isn't something he'd do if he was romantically interested. If he was going to make an exception for you, he would have kept it to himself and acted as if it didn't matter by asking you out.

 

The fact is that you two are friends and he enjoys your company based on that. Nothing more IMO. Now if you can live with that, great. But if you're main goal is to date the guy and you don't have a genuine interest in platonic friendship, I'd say just to walk away.

When he made that 7 year gap comment did he know you were 10 years older?

 

People make general comments like that all the time till they meet someone that makes them change their mind.
