How do I casually ask how old a guy is that’s in one of my classes? Like I’m interested in him but he’s a commuter so I don’t want to make a move if this guy’s like 6 years older than me

Talk about Covid and high school. If he was out of hs in Covid he’s in the older range, if he was in it then he’s closer to you

People generally don’t care about age gaps if the guy is top 1% of whatever he’s doing. So the more recent historical example is rock stars or movie stars. But really top 1% of whatever the profession he does or is likely to do, it seems to make sense.

Just food for thought, but how come you wouldn’t want to make a move if the guy is 6 years older than you? If you are otherwise interested in him, would such an age gap actually matter to you? Or are you more worried about how he would react to you making a move, or how other people would judge it?

It’s more so just something I worry about? Idk I’m only 20 so rn that seems like a big gap but a little about the judgement for sure
