Well, if you are in college, are you learning disabled? That would help us help you with this guy, if we knew more details about any disability you have. ***ADDED Ah, thank you! Can you tell us what the problems are? I'm a former teacher and a counselor.

No My birthday Is June 27th 1989 the fact is I Am 23 It even says so on my profile

If you are in college, why are you interested in a high school guy? The two of you have virtually nothing in common.

Because Like I Said before the guys my age are either taken or went to school out of Colorado after high school and we both like chocolate and sports and both have dogs

It would really help us to know, so then we can help you better. For instance, my son is high-functioning autistic, so I know how that works and could suggest things to you based on how he deals positively with relationships. And my husband has Asperger's!

I Just Have some Learning Challenges that I am working on step by step I Am not physically challenged I was in sped for my whole life but now I Just have a tutor I meet with once a week

That's good to hear! Are you willing to tell me which college you are going to? The big ones especially give wonderful help to students with challenges.

Colorado Mtn college

Thanks for telling me! Are you from that area since you know that guy who is in high school? Or how do you know him? (CO is my favorite state -- have been all over the place and love the Front Range and Boulder especially.)

Yes I was born here His bro graduated in 2009 and he started playing sports and his younger brother started playing sports and I got to know him

No wonder! Now I understand. So both families know each other, right?

Does the younger brother have a girlfriend right now?

I Don't think his bro has a girlfriend right now

How often do you see him?

On Saturday, my husband is heading out to Arches for a vacation and to see the Colorado aspens and breathe the mountain air. Are the aspens budding or getting leaves yet?

No aspen leaves yet but I See him at all the home lacrosse games

Is he a pretty good player? What position does he play? That would be a good thing to talk about with him -- lacrosse.

Is he interested in talking much with you or anyone? Or is he shy?

He Plays Middy And he has friends to talk to and yes He is an amazing athlete period he was Captain of the boys basketball team at Aspen and yes we have conversations he played full back for football he ran track last year he is super cool and really nice

He's not shy at all

But maybe he thinks of you are more of a "big sister" than a possible girlfriend? Especially if your families have known each other for a long time.

Its hard telling not knowing but I think it could work for me to be one of his possible girlfriend Not only do I know about the sports he plays I am also the #1 fan for AHS And spoil the teams and he was totally defending me when I got in an argument

Another thing is when the Lacrosse team is Away it drives me crazy because I Adore the guy

Is he interested in a 23 year old college student (5 years older than he is)? That might very well be the bigger question here. Have you had boyfriends in the past?

Is he likewise learning disabled?

I suspect a track, football and lacrosse "star" is beating off prospective girlfriends with a stick. Is he just being nice to you or is he interested in you as a girlfriend?

I think if you ask him out you will upset both families - yours and his. What do your parents say about you having a crush on this guy?

I will join WG in loving Colorado - I liked Boulder best.

Maybe I dono he might be and no he's not

I asked 4 questions. Which 2 did you answer?

The one about him being disabled and him being interested in a 23 year old girl and my parents just tell me to becareful

I realize you are almost finished with College - what is your major? I know there are lots of Environmental Studies degrees available in Colorado.

I Haven't decided but I want to work with our athletic trainer so Next week I am going to be taking Community cpr and first aid courses so we will see where it takes me but I also do a lot of art

My Parents tell me to be careful with who I chose to date and have a crush on because they love me

Yup, Boulder, and next on my list is Dillon, home of The Little Brown Drug (store). Great Sand Dunes is pretty nice too, especially in May when the creek is full and gives cool relief to hot-sand-burned bare feet. And of course, there's Black Canyon of the Gunnison. Oh, and Wolf Creek Pass. Heck, maybe we should move to CO.

To aspenchic, just be sure you aren't trying to "buy" his affection with "stuff."

"He thinks I am Awesome because I never miss a game and spoil the teams with goodies and if its someones birthday a birthday card and gift hand made and lots of good birthday wishes"

I don't understand your relationship with him - you go to all his games. That I "get." But you bring birthday cards and gifts to his team mates?

Not a legal issue but this is a huge difference in terms of where you're at in life. My son is 18 and a senior in high school. I would STRONGLY disapprove if he were dating a 23 year old girl and I would consider something seriously to be wrong with her. Why would a woman old enough to be a senior in college want to be with a boy who's just barely old enough to graduate high school? Find a man your own age.

If you read the more recent posts, you will see it's a lot more complicated than a simple age difference.

Not only his team mates but him to
My relationship between him is that I Am his#1Fan And not just his but everyone's

So there you have it

Sorry, dear - that response was meant to go to another question. It posted in response to your question by accident! I've deleted it now.

I'm still not understanding what a lady your age sees in a teen. I know as a parent I would be very displeased if you were dating my 18 year old son. You are too old for him. Not even in the same stage of life.
