It went really well and she sent me a text saying as much too.Catch is, I look so much younger than I actually am she was pretty shocked when I said I was 41. She reckons I look about 34!She's about 26 by the way and her mum is 47!!So that will probably be an issue but hey, iwe had a great time anyway and if it doesn't end up as a relationship then hopefully we'll still be friends! I know large she differences can work in relationships bit I'm under no illusions that it may be an issue for her-which is fine by me although it would be nice to be with her (she'a stunning,,intelligent and I like her a LOT)..Anyway, my final thought is when an opportunity comes up-don't hesitate,, grab it with both hands,, be yourself and run with it!![Mod note: this was more of an advice piece than a question, so I put it through as an article.]

quarky is verified as being by the original poster of the question So we had lunch today with one of her friends-when I got back to work, there was already an email waiting for me asking if I liked her friend because she's single too!
Needless to say, I got the hint!
Have to admire the way she let me down gently!
Was really starting to fall for her too-ah well, I'll get over it in time-and we'll still have the bus ride now and again I guess...

The way you're kind of vague shows me that you are very mature based on your last paragraph.
Anyway if love comes embrace it. Good luck on your second date.(^.^)

quarky is verified as being by the original poster of the questionthanks for your response. I could only guess at her age when I first asked her out-for all I knew she could have been 30 plus-honestly had no idea. And it wouldn't have mattered-i didn't ask her out guessing she was younger-I simply asked her out because there seemed to be a connection.
I'm not sure why you should know someone's age before asking them out- tho...how would that conversation go?
"Hi there, I really like you and would like to ask you out-how old are you first tho?"
"Get lost loser!"
Anyway, after date 2, I know know she's 28, she doesn't mind the age difference and we have another date this week.
And again, if it doesn't go any further, that's fine with me-at the very least, thee's one less stranger in the world!

If she let go it might be temporary depending how your first impression was.
Good luck!
