How do I convince him to give it a go?

A female United States age 30-35, *allowdust writes:

Okay, so I started liking this guy for about a year now, since I joined track last year. He responded back, and we flirted a lot. Then he got kicked out of the team, and we didn't see each other much. Now, when we start a new school year and I see him every once in a while in the hallways of our high school. We don't talk much, but one day, when our friends weren't with us, we kissed. That was back in November, and now it's March. I've added him on Facebook and he accepted, and we've talked some.

Earlier in the week, we agreed to meet to see if there was chemistry, and we ended up saying there was some. We talked it out, and agreed to talk about this yesterday. Well, it turns out that he's not sure if we should start a relationship because there's a three year difference between us. I mean, I'm as mature as he is, but he doesn't like the fact that I can't do the same things he can or go to the same places he can. He also says that he doesn't want to start and work on something that he knows is going to end up breaking off in the end. He's most likely going to England or Peru since he'll be graduating.

I really like him and I don't want this to end. I don't know how to convince him that three months will be worth it, and I need help. For all we know, he could end up staying and then all of this restraint would have been for nothing. I've tried everything, but I'm not sure how to convince him that I'm worth the three months. Please help me convince him!

What fun would life be if one was to never take a risk? If he's not graduating for another three months, he might as well involve himself in a relationship that could turn out to be the best decision in his life. One horrible thing to have to consider later in life is "what if I had done this?" You're both still young, so even if it doesn't work out in the end, at least both of you will be able to walk away saying that you tried and, hopefully, both of you will gain something positive from the experience
