    Hate to have to do this, but if y’all can’t behave reasonably in the comments section we will have to lock this post. Please read the community rules in the sidebar and keep the discussion civil.

    Based on that last paragraph, yeah, he wants to appreciate you like any sexy girl his daughter’s age. Weird that he sees you as some kind of infant adult that needs protecting. Go for it. Whatever. Fuck around, find out.

    Wait until he is no longer your driving instructor before you ask him.

    If you ask him when he is your teacher, he cannot be honest in his response.

    Don’t underestimate the amount of fear that men have of being accused of sexual misbehavior.

    It’s not a fun adventure when your 26 year old driving student reveals her crush on you. It’s like waking up in the middle of a minefield.

    Wait until the class is over, and you are no longer his student. Then ask him.

    This post has been reported, and I tend to agree with the reasoning. This seems somewhat inappropriate for this forum. Stop posting this tripe here, please.

      Why is it tripe for you? Is it forbidden? Is it because of the age? because of the way I think or what? If it violates the rules it will get deleted I think, if it’s just judgment you could make it constructive, at least. I’m sorry I’m so below your standards.

        Sorry, that came out wrong. I’m a mod and I was saying that your post was reported and I decided not to remove it.

    It might work for a long time, but it’s likely that you’ll both change over time and may end up growing apart. If you’re both aware of that at the forefront and are willing to take that risk then I guess it’s not too big a deal, though it can be uncomfortable being seen together as your age difference becomes more visible.

    Source: guy who had a ten year relationship with much older lass - I changed a lot in those ten years.

    I got into an age gap relationship at the end of my 20s, and we’ve been together almost 10 years now. As others said, make sure you’re no longer his student before you broach the subject as there may be rules about it. If you’re looking for a sexual only relationship, go for it. 50yo men are many times better in bed than 20-something’s because they’ve had more experience.

    If you’re looking for something more, there’s a lot of things to consider so take it slow and make sure that you are both in agreement about the direction of your relationship and your potential life together. Don’t assume he’s right because he’s older, don’t compromise your life goals and desires for him (like wanting/not wanting kids), and be prepared for your family, friends, co-workers, and strangers to judge you for the age gap. It’s doable but, as others said, the two of you are not at the same stage of life so you really have to make sure your goals align.

    Best of luck!

    To everyone: if you’re against the age gap I totally get it. If you think I’m stupid, I’m open to that too. But it would be great if you could prove your point instead of just coming here with whatever your doctrine is telling me or anyone what is wrong and what is right. A lot of people commented, many upvoted and many downvoted, the way it’s supposed to be. Some reported? FINE, but don’t come here saying that the group who reported is right, cause many others didn’t need to, apparently. If it’s about the forum’s RULES than that’s another story, but don’t dare tell people what should and should not be said.
