I am 32 divorced for several years and have
one child.I am in love with someone from work who is a very caring, kind ,witty, intelligent, responsible and generous man. I always thought that he was about 45 - Just found out that he is 60 and never married. I know he likes me but he has never asked me out - we have gone to have lunch several times.
When ever I am with him, I feel so happy - He makes me laugh and I feel very comfortable talking to him. The age difference is there ! Someone in the office said to me because of this he is not asking for a date - but he is very fond of me and that he does not want to be embarrassed by asking me out. Should I ask him out?
We have lots in common
Is the age difference too much ?
Please let me know your thoughts. IP: Logged |

just my opinionthe age diffrence dosen't matter if you like each other. Ask him out what is the worst that happens he says no but most likley he says yes. IP: Logged |

Vesta:I have been thinking about asking him but just do not have the nerve to do so.
Should I ask in person or e-mail or through a friend. IP: Logged |

In person is always best. I know it will take a lot of courage but I believe in person is the best way then he will also know that you are interested in him as well.IP: Logged |

Vesta:Please any one else besides Vesta is welcome to reply !!!! I hope I get enough courage to do so in person.
I just spoke with my best friend - She understands how I feel but also mentioned that when he will be 70 when I will be 42. What do you think about this? As of today, he looks about 45 and everyone I spoke to in the company thinks he is between 39 to 43. He has more energy and looks younger than my Ex who is now 42 ! Everyone at work loves him - He is such a nice person and I can not imagine going out with someone else other than him. My son is very fond of him - I have brought my son to work a few times and he ( my son - 11 years old ) told me that this GUY is cool and he ( my son ) would like me to be with him.
In past, I have dated few men but my son was never happy with any one of them and so I had to end the relationships.
He told me in confidence that he is 60 - and yes, he is right ( he showed me his driver's license ) - But also asked me to keep it to myself.
I love him but I am also very confused.
Thanks for listening , I appreciate it.

Age difference ?In love, I think it does not matter. I always say even if you spend sometime together and it is worth it, who cares about age difference !! You could be going out with someone around your own age and he treats you like crap or he passes away soon ! Would you not rather spend time with someone you care about and he cares about you?
Even if it lasts a short time and is worth it!! IP: Logged |
