Older guy
I am 17, and I kind of have my eye on someone. I don't know him well enough to say I like him, but I am definitely interested in getting to know him.
Problem is, he is most definitely older than me. I don't know his age, but I would say he is between 20 and 25.
He is a very good person, smart, worldly, mysterious, funny, etc. I doubt he is in a relationship, but of course, he might be.
Would it be wrong for me to try to get to know him better? Would he even be interested in the company of a 17 year old? Well, no, I know we will have a great time if we were to talk or hang out, but I'm just afraid he won't be receptive because I'm just a 17 year old girl. Or, because he is super friendly, he will be very polite and courteous but deep down he would be thinking "What is this teenager doing around me?"
I just don't know what to do. I'm scared he will reject me now, and screw up any chances we might have for the future because he will remember that day "when a teenager came on to him." And then some 2-3 years later I'll see him and he will be like, "oh no, not you again." What do I do?
He knows my age by the way.

feel free to dive into this relationship if you have the responsibility and intelligence to exist in it. older people have different views on how relationships should be. just be ready for anything.

Well if you don't take a chance you'll never know what will happen and you will always be wondering what could have happened. Whether it was good or bad. So I say go for it. And if he accepts you and if friendly and seems like he is happy then that great and if he seems like ok, this girl is creeping me out. Or is acting like he doesn't care, he isn't worth any of your time. There are plenty of guys out there anyways. But also remember, in my opinion I say that is a pretty big age difference but it does work out sometimes. So go for it but be careful too. Good luck!

go for it. you guys can laugh about it three years from now if it freaks him out now.
but think about it. 25 year olds expect different things out of a relationship. be prepared
flirt a little bit and test the waters. if he flirts back, and things are going good just be like "wna catch a movie tonight?" and see what he says.keep going from there. make it gradual, dont just shock him.
