But when it comes down to it, age is such a petty thing. If you like him, you can't let a silly little thing like age get in the way (and in my case, it was me being shallow and thinking, 'well, it's just a bit cooler to date an older guy, isn't it?' which is such a pointless reason not to date someone, and I can say from experience, if you don't make a move because of a reason like that, you'll regret it.)
8 months younger is not something that will affect your relationship, were you to have one. You should definitely do something about it - I don't know whether you're on speaking terms with him or not. If you're not, start by smiling at him whenever you see him (confiding in his sister may not be a bad idea either). Then, start saying hi, occasionally ask him a question. You can use sites like Facebook to strike up conversation too. To get to know him better, you could always throw a gathering or party at your house (garden parties or barbeques are always good for summer!) and invite him along. Once you know him as an acquaitance, you could even him to smaller things (for example, if you and your friends are going to the cinema, invite him) and the eventually ask him out on his own.

He's not that much younger than you, so go ahead talk to him. Go for it give it your best shot and hope it all works out! [ RoxyK96's advice column | Ask RoxyK96 A Question ]
