Hi,

I had something going on with one of my brothers friends, before all the other guy. He is 8 years older than me, which maybe can be a little too much of a difference, although I still find him attractive and really would like us to be couple. However I stopped resonding to his calls because I knew he was only after one thing from me. But I did tell him once that he is a great guy and that I am more of the girlfriend type. He said he did not want to mislead me. But then he says maybe we can figure something out sometime. But he also just says he is too busy for a relationship, he loves travelling. But I love travelling too! He just has more money and a couple jobs to give him what he wants and I do not. So he talks a lot about snowbaording and sailing because those are his major passions. I do not know anything about any of those things, but I like those a activities just don't know much about them, so I do not know what to say when he talks about it. But he does like photography and I am an artist, so we have that in common. We like the same food and music. He is a laidback, calm, quiet guy, yet knows how to have fun too. I am the same way. The only problem with us when we are together is that we don't talk at all! Its like we don't know what to talk about for some reason. I really would love to try and work something out with him. How should I break the extreme awkwardness between us and make flowy and fun conversations ?
