A short summary of my previous post: I developed feelings for an ex co-worker who's a lot older than me. I've known him for a long time and he teases me A LOT. I sorta had a feeling that he's not going to tell me he's interested even if he is because he's afraid of what I'll think of our age gap.

 

I kept in touch with all my ex co-workers and we actually hang out/go to the gym together during the weekend. For the past 2 weeks since I left the work place, he would text me first asking if I'm going with everyone else for lunch or to the gym etc. Afterwards he would offer to drive me home, but he would say "I'll drive you home since you gave me brownies" (note: I gave everyone brownies for the holiday). Today, he texted me asking me to help our mutual friend with something. I thought this was weird because that mutual friend has my number and could've asked me himself. So I said "okay, done". Then he texted back "Nice, I'll bring you your favorite spicy buffalo wings next time."

 

Sorry for the long post! I'm not sure if he's interested or he's just being friendly.

My best guess is that, yes, he's flirting. He seems to be going out of his way to contact you, see you, and maybe even indirectly set up dates (offering to bring you food, etc...). I'd take him up on his offer for food and see where it goes. If you are interested, then flirt back a little. After all, you really don't have anything to lose, and you might have a boyfriend to gain!

 

How big is the age difference? I married a co-worker twenty years my senior. While the marriage didn't work out in the end, we were very much in love, and our divorce had nothing to do with age. I actually always loved being with an older man: he was intelligent, secure, past his hard-partying days, and had learned over time exactly how to treat a woman.
