How do I ask a younger guy out? (at least 15 yrs younger)
So I like this guy I work with that is about 15 yr my jr and I’m 35. I work with him and today when I went back at work and said that I needed one of the 4 guys that were doing something else to stop and help me out, he jumped on helping me out. He also chose to come and help me when he started also without me asking. Also said that I looked younger than 18 when I made a cooment about if someone is under 18 what can and what cant they do,So I guess what I am getting to is How do I ask him out without feeling like a dumb-*** around him if he says no?

Nothing to it but to do it, dear.
Look, I really like you. And while the age difference is not lost on me, I’m betting it’ll be good for both of us if we, at least, take a step. We’ll start with coffee and if that has legs and we’re both entertained, we’ll try dinner. What do you say?
Honestly every man wants an older woman at that age. Just don’t forget that he is clueless. You need to be in charge of planning things, cook him good food! Find fun things to do that don’t cost a lot. Get on it!
I can completely understand your fear….I think the elephant in the room is probably whether or not someone at the age of 20 would consider even being with someone who is 35. Furthermore, is he even mature enough to deal with dating someone older? 15 years cam be quite the difference, especially when his idea of a good night out might be a series of bong hits followed by a bar hop.
Why not ask him to hang out – perhaps for a beer, food, whatevs, and then take it from there….?! Good luck!
I would be more worried about if he is mature enough to handle a Real relationship you are already attached and what would happen if it didn’t work out right or if he cheated on you 20 is not very mature i remember when i was 20 and i was such a jack azz
just saying be careful I hate to see some one get hurt like that
I’ve been in a number of intergenerational relationships (including my marriage) where the woman was older by decade or more.
From my perspective the younger male will respect you for simply asking for what you want with no concern for the age difference.
The fact you work with this person concerns me. His possible lack of maturity may make a workplace romance (or it’s end) even stickier than usual.
One shouldn’t get their meat the same place they get their bread.
Damn and I feel old as a senior in college going after sophomores:)
Ask him out for something casual. Play off of the cues he gives you. This way, if things don’t work out, you can save face. Good luck!
Here are some sweets , don’t tell anyone keep it our little secret.
Oh I wish I was this guy…. :D
and welcome to fluther, this is a secret society, don’t tell anyone :P
If you really like him, just say the word. An old sage says, "if you ask, you may or may not get it; but if you don’t ask, you certainly won’t get it." Follow Nike’s motto: Just Do It.
