writes: I'm 19, going to be 20 in two weeks. I go to school 7 hours from here but my family lives here and I come home and work during breaks and such. I work at an insurance company. Basically, we have a lawyer who just turned 37 a few days ago who works out of our office and I've sort of developed a little bit of a crush on him. I thought it'd go away when I left for school but I'm back and I still like him. I just don't know if he likes me. He is a lot older than I am, so first of all, is it weird for a 20 year old to date a 37 year old? And my main concern is how do I know if he likes me back? We flirt...a lot but it's more of a playful fun-poking. I'm just not sure if it's just flirting and nothing more. I've heard from other people in the office that he goes for younger girls but I really don't want to try to make a move and then have him not feel the same way. So is there something I can do/say without coming out right and saying, hey, I like you, wanna get dinner? Any help would be awesome.

No its not wrong for him to be 37. I did kinda the same thing w/ a 36yr old and im 17, so...ur ok on that part. Dont come right out n ask him that, just be like i need some help doing this wanna grab a bite to eat n help me figure this out? Guys are so hard to read sometimes, u think they like u then come to find out they're just messin around. They prolly just want a person of the opposite sex to be able to be close to and talk to w/o actually meaning that they like you. But kick the flirting up a notch, poking? get ur game on girl! Hit me back

This could be weird if he is not interested. Just play it cool.. have your fun by flirting and if you want to date him make eye contact alot, smile, and act interested... trust me he will get the point. If he's interested he will ask, if he's not he may back off a bit to let you know he's just flirting. Hope this helps!

The more time you spend together the more you two might actually click and he may possibliy open up to you more and tell you that he likes you or ask you out on another outting. Play it dumb and innocent (really friendly) and see how he treats you on your outtings.
