Age difference to much??
SO I like this guy who is around 3 years older than me (I'm a Freshman and he is a Junior come this fall) and I think he likes me back, a few people say he does. But I was at a friend's house today and I told him about the boy and I said his age and he said "Don't do it" I'm really confused now, I think I might really like him and I hope he likes me back, but I don't know what to do. Is he to old for me? Please help!

You might go back to your male friend and ask for clarification. Was he concerned about an age difference. Or does he know something about the character of this guy and was warning you to stay away from him because he would mistreat you or try to take advantage of you.
Personally, I believe if you are all in the same highschool, just a different grade, there should be no problem.
The usual issues that arise is juniors and seniors finding the incoming freshman too immature in character for their tastes so the only others you are able to befriend might be sophomores.
That does not mean that some freshmen can be as mature as a senior or that some seniors can behave as immature as freshman. It's really up to the individual.
The only other scenerio I can think of is that junior/senior guys who are looking for an easy sexual conquest have a harder time with those girls in their class level who are wise and on to their schemes so they will turn to incoming freshman girl who will feel honored to have the attention of a guy. I dont know what is going on. If its two people looking at each other a lot...it is only physical attraction or pheromones right now. Until there is some real conversation between the two of you to determine if both have some things in common they like about each other, then you go on to dating to find out even more about each other. So far from how you have stated it, sounds like he isn't coming after you forcefully to win you over so he may not be a player....or he may be a very sly patient one. Ask your friend again and if its just age difference...go for it if you are interested. You need to begin learning soon how to have conversation with guys you like and discover what it is you like and dont like about guys. You will date guys over your teen/college years and hopefully be paying enough attention to learn what the good guys are like, the kind you could someday have a commited life time relationship with.
