How old are you and how old is he?

girl, respectfully the decision-making centers of your brain are not finished developing until your mid-20s, which means you’re not as capable as someone in their late 20s of consenting to a relationship. there is an inherent power imbalance.

I'm 24, turning 25 soon. I wouldn't look twice at a 21 yr old. So why would a 28 yr old man be pursuing you? A 28 yr old with a preteen daughter?

i’m unsure, my guard is still up bc that thought is at the back of my mind. it’s just hard for me to date men my own age bc i’m recently divorced with a toddler :/

While that's understandable (the men my age suck too), 28 is still a big leap for someone who's still 21. He might see commonality because it seems like you both had kids very young, but you're still at very different life stages

tbh i was under the impression that it was casual until this so that’s (partially) why i was okay with it

you can be casual with people your own age. i’d break it off if i were you.

getting into morality is inherent in asking for advice, and as a 30 y/o lady, i think you should break it off.

look, i really appreciate the concern, but i was really just looking for a fling. i’m moving almost 1.5k miles away in august so none of this will matter by the end of summer 🤷‍♀️

GIRL then why are you literally asking if you’re just going to be sassy with people who give you a direct response and explanation???

and i’m telling you the best way to remedy the daughter situation is to break up with him, because it’s inappropriate his daughter is that close in age to you

there’s no reason beneficial to you that a guy goes for someone way younger, bestie. best case scenario he’s just immature for his age, and you deserve better than that.
