Question - (5 September 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 6 September 2009)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

So i really like this guy who most likely returns the feelings, and on top of that, we're already friends, so it's perfect. Plus he's adorable. Although there's two major problems: i only know him because he's one of my best friend's(a guy) brother. the other problem; YOUNGER brother. He doesn't look or act his age, i actually have to remind myself he's 2 years younger than i am. Which, isn't a big difference if we were 22 and 24 or something, but in this case it's 15 and 17. i feel like that shouldn't matter, but it seems so untypical especially since i'm the girl. And, i don't know how my friend would feel about all of that, since they're really close. But the question is, should i just go for it, not worry about age and talk to the friend, or just accept it as impossible and drop it?

Note: i hardly get crushes on anyone, ever. I've never had a boyfriend partly for that reason. so the fact that i actually like this guy is a pretty big deal.

I personally think your age difference is fine in comparison to some others I've seen but unfortunately other people may see it as taboo. If I was you and I liked 13 year old I would definitely ask her out because I like her and why should I ignore that because of a measly 2 years that no one will notice when I'm in my 20s? The only barrier is your friend but if he is okay with it then you should go out with him. You hardly have crushes so fight for this one. Good luck.
