Wrong age attraction? I'm a bit confused about a certain aspect of my current life.
I have just recently started to work(1 month) in a new work place.
I really enjoy working there but the thing is a certain guy has caught my eye and the problem is that we're of two totally different age groups.
He's 23-25 and I'm 17 soon to be 18.
The thing is he may or may not have been dropping hints.
I'm confused and don't know what to do.
Help?

Yes, he may or may not have been dropping hints. Yes, you may or may not be attracted to him.
But the fact that you're asking a question about whether or not the age difference is too big shows that you're thinking everything isn't exactly perfect.
Generally, it's best to date people who are at the same sort of stage as you are. At 17, you're still in high school. At 23/25, The Guy has finished high school and college too (if he went).
The older you get, the less problematic age differences become. People tend to even out.
That being said, many younger people date people in their twenties - as to how many relationships actually work out, that's another story.
My best advice? Find someone closer to your own age and avoid any age-related struggles (power, wanting different things, being used by an older guy, hooking up with an immature guy!) that could possibly exist. And if you DO decide to go ahead and date this guy, at least you'll be doing so knowing some of the dodgy areas.
Best of luck. ]
