This is a tough one

  • Jill August 2010
    I'm 17 and have never had a boyfriend. I think by now my parents would be ok with me having a boyfriend and dating and all that. Here's the thing. I've noticed cute boys and everything before and I've considered asking a few out but I've never had the courage to.

    That's not my problem though. I would ask any boy out if I really wanted to. My problem is, I'm in love with my guitar teacher who's 30. I've really thought about it and I'm sure I love him. He's the nicest person I know and he's funny and he's the only person I know who's really religious and I'm really religious and I'd like to have someone to talk to about it. I just want him to know that I love him because his wife divorced him and his band broke up and I feel really bad. I just want him to know that I love him and that's it. I'm going to be realistic 'cause he has his own life but I want to tell him. How do I do that without being creepy? I want to be nice by telling him. Is that creepy?

    Don't tell him! I'm 17 too and I've thought I've loved guys before, and I'm not saying you don't, but I think it will pass. We are too young to know what love really is and this guy is way too old for you. You probably jus really care about him and what he is going through. But if you tell him it will screw things up between the two of you.

    Well how do I let him know that I care about him without it being creepy? I still think I love him but can't I at least tell him that I care about him? Am I thinking about this too much?

    I have absolutely no interest in dating him. I know that's completely unrealistic. I just want to be a friend to him. I don't really even want to hang out, I just want him to know that I think he's a really good guy and I'm here for him. It's this stupid society. It seems like in this day and age because of the age difference that's creepy. It shouldn't be creepy! (this one's kind of more of a rant than a question)
