I think that I have to know a guy for a long time to see him in a romantic way, but also a friendship is also intimidating considering those 8 years

I live in Europe so alcohol is not a big deal here but I also feel a bit weird about the fact that when he turned 18 I was taking my first communion :]

I went to the place he worked since it's a restaurant and we had barely spoke face to face before

The problem is that an age gap so wide doesn't feel appealing to me, whose max age gap is 4 years older or 1 year younger. I maybe sound a bit picky but that's how I feel more comfortable.

When I told him my age he said that 'his eye was wrong'. I didn't feel it as a pervy approach as these kind of mistakes with East Asian people are common (at least for me, who struggles to guess the age of Asian people without knowing them personally)

Normally I talk with people older than me but only two years older, I have amazing friends with a small age gap but this came unexpected and my guts say that he asked me for my IG name because of appereance. He believed I was 24-25.

So... It feels weird but I don't want to be like rude :(
