Long distance relationship and age gap...
First and foremost, I would sincerely appreciate all advice offered here..I just don't know what else to do right now. I recently traveled to Mexico on a vacation with my family. We stayed for two weeks in an amazing resort, but I never expected to meet someone I wanted to be with so badly. I met Ryan on my first day at the hotel, he works there on the Entertainment staff. He's absolutely gorgeous :) and we hit it off right away. I'm nineteen, soon to be twenty, and he just turned twenty three, so there is a bit of an age gap which neither of us consider to be an issue. We spent every second together during my vacation, and he took many days off work to chill with me downtown. He left work early everyday to go have lunch with me. We established that we liked each other, and it feels right to both of us but I don't see how a relationship could work. I've been home for about a week and a day hasn't gone by without us talking until today, because his grandmother passed away this morning. I completely understand him needing to be with his family and everything, this is not an issue..I just don't know if I'm cut out for the whole long distance thing. I live in Michigan, so it's really far obviously..I'm going back in August for three weeks but after that who knows how long it will be before we see each other. I don't know if I should hold on to this or let go because there could be something easier for both of us, even if it isn't better at least it wouldn't be such a strain. But I care about him immensely and even after three weeks I feel very close to him, vice versa. I speak fluent spanish so language is not an issue at all. Sorry for the length of this question, I just need to know if I should let go or keep holding on..and if I do hold on, does it get easier?

Maybe give some free advice about: Love Life?
Well it could work but it requires a sacfrice from both of you. If you are traveling over there for 3 wk. then he should also be willing to do the same its a two way street.

i don't know if its too early to tell, but do you think you could fall in love with him?
talk with him about it, never make your own judgements about a relationship. your almost in your 20's and if you to want to be together, try and work it out. you never know he may love you to and want to spend his life with you. talk it out and try to work out an agreement, there's always video chat and the phone! keep holding on, you never know what might surprise you in life!
best of luck
hope you both last forever
