So...

I'm a very active person, and have been looking for a woman who can keep up with me and that has similar interests as me. Well, during one of the sand volleyball leagues I played in this summer, I met a girl who was cute, and also very competitive, and we started talking a bit. Through basic Ice-Breaker conversations here and there, just getting to know each other, I find out she's a college volleyball and basketball player. Which is all amazing to me, because I was a basketball player in college, and I've been addicted to playing volleyball since I can remember. Plus she's 6'1" and I'm 6'5", and short girls just don't look right next to me, lol. During our second conversation, age came up. She's 19 and I'm 24. About 4 weeks ago, we ended up hanging out outside of volleyball, and had a great time. Over the next four weeks we spend a decent amount of time together. We have great conversation and very similar interests. Well, with her being a college student, she left two days ago to go back to school...... All the way out in New York (We're both from the Chicago area, so 700 miles away).

She seemingly has no problem with the age difference, but with us both being so far apart, having only spent 4 weeks with each other, and being at two different points in our life (I'm past the whole party/club scene, and prefer to just relax and enjoy a drink here and there, and she's still hasn't hit that 21 mark yet where things can get pretty wild) is it plausible for me to think that things would work out between the two of us. No matter what, besides maybe a couple side trips, I know that I won't be able to see her almost the entire school year, really only leaving summer vacation for us to be together for any period of time. Do you all think it's a waste of time for me to hope and wait on this girl? I'd like to believe not (do you know how hard it is to find an attractive, athletic, tall, coordinated, and everything-i've-been-looking-for-in-a-woman type of girl?, lol), but I'm also at the point in my life where I'm looking for that one to settle down with, but most people her age aren't really thinking about that... Any suggestions/advice would be greatly appreciated!

hey man, you found a girl who's nice, it is never a waste of time.

I think you may be afraid that this won't work out, and it may not but that's the game. My advice is to go for it. Give it a shot and see how you go.
