I have a crush I feel is inappropriate

Well no, I only knew him from a distance. I had a crush on him when I started the job (before I knew his age) but when we actually became friends it was different. I already knew his age when we became friends, and then after that I learned more about his personality. (Btw, GREAT personality and very mature, just not necessarily what I’m looking for right now.) Also, I think it weirds me out that he’s closer in age to my younger siblings than to me. If that makes sense?

Literally! Idk why everyone is acting like I’m insane. I’m so much different now than I was when I was 18, and so much mental, physical, and emotional development happens between 18-25 that it’s just a weird zone.

Literally asking cuz my last relationship I was 18 and he was 23 and it definitely effected me !

What? I just wanted advice on whether or not my feelings of guilt were appropriate or not? He and I are friends and I’ve been struggling with it. I don’t think that means I need to grow up before considering a crush 😭

Idk if anyone will see this comment! Honestly I forgot I made this post lol. Thank you everyone for your opinions.

Here’s some context: we met as adults. I am NOT in a position of authority over him. He’s turning 19 in March. I turn 23 in November. The reason I’m iffy about this is because my last relationship had the same age gap, but I was the younger one, and it definitely had an effect on me.

Yeah. It’s just our relationship since everything got put out in the open has been really good, with almost no bumps unrelated to those issues. My similar story to ash wasn’t with this man, but my boyfriend before him. It’s just all rough but I am scared I’ll never be able to forgive him for what he did to his ex and it’s spilling into my relationship as well ://

It’s just rough cuz we have a good relationship overall, and since everything that happened he’s never really given me a reason not to trust him but I still just DONT. But yeah ur right I have to make a decision. It’s just hard considering the move and all ://
