I met this really nice guy (lets call him warren) almost 5 days ago. We met at a bowling alley and I actually kinda liked his friend (Luke)- however when I found out that I was 4 years older than Luke, I knew that wouldnt ever happen because it would be illegal because he was 14 and im 18... so thats a negative. Well, Warren, Luke's friend, ended up letting me stay at his house for the night because it was too late for me to get back to my house. Warren hit on me, and then we started kissing, and well, one thing led to another. THEN, after that happened we were just talking and I found out he is my best friends cousin. I told her about me and warren hanging out and when i did she was like "Please tell me you arent messing with him." I told her i wasnt, but that i was becoming pretty close to him (which is true). I dont know what it is about him though. We are complete opposites. Im more of a voluptous girl, while he is skinny, im in high school, he is graduated, he is country, and I am proper. However the connection we have is hard to ignore; physically and emotionally. He said to me, "I bet you $100.00 that you will fall in love with me." and of course I denied it. I cant tell if by saying that he is wanting to start dating me or not. But based on the situation do you think that I should pursue the relationship or let it diminish? I just wanted an honest opinion.

Sami143 answered Monday March 9 2009, 9:17 pm: If you really like him then anything is worth a shot =] Some people say opposites attract and its true in a lot of ways you look for someone to fill in for the things that you dont have if that makes any sense. But if you guys do carry this on i think that you should tell your friend about it because she has the right to know and if she finds out any other way that could cause a lot of problems. Well hope i helped =] [ Sami143's advice column | Ask Sami143 A Question ]
Smartone answered Monday March 9 2009, 4:44 pm: Well, I wouldn't pursue him, I'd let him pursue me. If you really like him, I don't see why you shouldn't see him. I will say that I wouldn't sleep with him, or even mess around. Right now, you are both infatuated with each other. You shouldn't do anything that you might regret should nothing come of it. It may not develop into a relationship. His $100 bet might just be a clever line or it could be a come on.
My advice is to go slow and don't assume that things will work out. I have a friend who mat and fell in love with and married her complete opposite. Nothing in common. They are now married 35 years and very happily! Others who've done the same thing have regretted it as they have no common ground when the infatuation dies. And die it will.
kirsty answered Monday March 9 2009, 4:37 pm: Firstly find out why your best friend said "Please tell me you arent messing with him" mayby she knows something you don't. However, I don't see a problem with you guyes being totally different, y'know what they say opposites attract.
If you feel like you have an emotinal and physical connecion with this guy I think you should go for it, even if it does end in tears you could have an amazing relationship and it may last.
Also judging by him saying "I bet you $100.00 that you will fall in love with me." I think he really likes you and wants you to fall in love, and be in a relationship with him. I hope I helped even a little. Good Luck!!! :) [ kirsty's advice column | Ask kirsty A Question ]
playboybabeex3 answered Monday March 9 2009, 4:36 pm: Hey Madison :)
Ohhh thats a tough situation. I'll give you my honest oppinion from an outside perspective. He sort of sounds like a player. From his cousin's reaction and immediate disaproval and from his "bet" it seems he is pretty cocky. Confidence/cockiness can be very attractive (those are the types of guys I typicially go for) but they can be heart breakers if you're not careful. If I were you, I would not let it go since you seem to have a strong connection with the guy. I would see where it leads but not presue it too strong. Go with the flow that way you don't get too attached if something does go wrong.
Gooood luck! I hope things do work out
