I think that I like him. But I don't know about his feelings for me.

First he's almost old enough to be your father - trust me this is a mistake. When I was 22 I dated a man who was 52! It was okay at first, he was well off and made my life comfortable with things (I moved in with him and had very nice things and a nice car)...but he was also very emotionally manipulative. He was controlling and figured since I was so young, I'd do whatever he said...for awhile I did, but I guess it was the lifestyle he afforded me and I didn't want to lose it. I wasn't in love with him and I don't think he was in love with me. I wanted security and he wanted the trophy wife (we got engaged a year after we met). Then it got to the point where the excitement wore off, and sex was all that was holding him to me and things was all that was holding me to him. It was awful. We had nothing in common, how could we? We spaned two generations. He got along more with my parents than me since they were all the same age and in fact he and my father (who wasn't crazy about the relationship at first) remain close to this day. Anyway, true that 30 isn't 52, but honey, at 18 you barely know who you are. I'm 37 and I'm still not 100% sure who I am! A 30 year old man will be thinking nothing more than how hot the sex will be with an 18 year old and then eventually he'll be thinking marriage and I doubt it will be marriage to an 18 year old, he'll play with you, but will be looking for a wife elsewhere. Even if he wants to marry you, are you ready for marriage? What about college and college boys? Why do you want to date someone so much older? What could you possibly have in common? Last comment, when I told my mother I wanted to date the 52 year and told her why, she asked me - very wisely - "what do you have to offer him in return". And she wasn't talking about monetary things, she meant mentally, and supportively. And you know, as mothers always are, she was right. And as she predicted, it ended badly. Well, just giving you some things to think about. Good luck.

Flirt with him. Touch him as often as you can. Believe me, if he's single and you show the least bit of interest in him, he should jump all over it. I know I am thirty three and if an eighteen year old girl came onto me when I was single i would have gone for it. just don't get nervous and don't get discouraged if he doesn't react at first. he probably has no idea you like him and feels that you would not go for him. Make your move and be confidant.

Practice on men your own age. Through experience and maturity you'll know already that you are reaching for something that clearly you are not ready for no matter how much you think you are. lol. Go forth and learn grasshopper. You have many miles and creeks to cross before reaching the bridge to this one question that you seek. Replace the (I am 18) to (I am 25) and come talk to me then.

Don't go there. It's not the absolute difference in ages -- if you were 50 and he was 62 it would be OK. But at this stage you've still to experience the most critical years of your life and the cultural and physical differences are enormous.

Honey, look for a guy closer to your own age. He may like you for your physical attributes, but your stage in life is COMPLETELY different than his.

Do you actually like the man? "I think that I like him."
you either do or you don't.. I think it's ick seeing girls with guys twice their age, but just ask/observe.

Just walk up to him , grab a firm hold on his crotch and say, "Does this belong to anyone?"

Honey, don't do that. That's gross..and you'll be ridiculed until the day you die about it. Trust me, that's not someone you want to pursue. Find someone your age.
