    I am 20 and I have an older friend who is 27. She has a boyfriend, but we get on really well when we go out. It's getting to the point I can't stop thinking about her, she's drop dead gorgeous, funny, nice, kind and we get on really well. I don't think she realises how I feel, and I don't want to wreck our friendship. Shes a good bit older, has a fella, and is probably way way out of my league, but I can't stop thinking about her. I just don't know what to do, so I am looking for some advice.

    This has nothing to do with her age but a lot to do with the fact she is in a relationship so leave her alone and find someone who is single....

    TBH, at 27 I would have had no interest in a 20 years old guy - just think there would be a world of difference in experience.. I know you cant apply that to all people but it would never have progressed if it was me.

    You have to be careful here. You may just have a crush on her. She is unattainable so that makes it 'safe' to desire her.

    If you make a move you risk losing her.

    Either way there isn't anything you can do until she is free.

    Be smart. Find someone else. Later, if she becomes free you can consider a crack at her.

    All the best

    Hi guys, I know ye are right, it all sounds so simple. I'd give the same advice myself to someone else in the situation, but in real life it's not that easy. I can't stop thinking about her, and I cannot wait until next weekend in the hopes of seeing her again. I dunno what to do anymore
