He and my parents are good friends, and I plan to move to his state when I'm old enough. I know I'm in love with him, but I really can't firmly say he likes me in that way. I know he's fond of me as a friend, but I don't know if he would want to take it farther. Oh, he's Asian and I'm American.. just so you know I don't see that making a differance since neither of us are racialist.So heres my question: Should I tell him how I feel at some point? Or shall I leave it be and keep our tight friendship just how it is?Thanks! Reply to this Question Share |

You are obviously infatuated with this guy, whom you only saw once and are not sure if he sees youthat way. If he's a friend of your parents' I'd suggest you let it go.

Leave it be. I'm reading between the lines here, but guessing that you're really young. This is probably a crush although it may feel like you're in love. 23 years older is too old when you are still young and it would make things very tricky with your parents. All this talk of moving yet you've only met face to face once?! The race is of no relevance to the situation so the very mention of it was telling of your age and the way you see the world. Hang out with friends your own age and maybe you'll find a guy you like who's also nearer your age.
