Over the last few years, I’ve been to a few social events where I’ve bumped into a younger guy that I know, or he’s been there due to the fact that he is a friend of my two younger brothers.
There’s always been chemistry and flirting between us and on two occasions we’ve acted on it, (one of which my brothers know of) but without actually sleeping together. He’s very forward about being attracted to me, wanting a date, etc. and I flirt back a little, but i always kind of brush it off as well, as he is almost 6 years younger, I’m a single parent, and because of the family connection.
Last time I saw him, he was seeing someone, but he’s single now. He messaged me at the weekend, random conversation about some daft drunk situation he’d been in, and we ended up doing the usual flirting, reminiscing about past encounters and I found myself thinking “just ask me out! I’ll give it a go!”
Anyway, my point is, me at 35, a single parent to an almost teen, him 29 with a good career and freedom, and also a good family friend - should I steer clear? Or should I make it known that maybe I would like to see if there’s more to it?
Interested to hear from anyone who is the “older” woman in this kind of age range too.
