Hello guys.
I am leaving for MSc/graduate education to another country this September. I am 21 years old.
I met a 18 years old girl this summer at holiday. She is a senior at high school. Although she is younger than my age and still has to attend university, she acted very mature for her age and we got along really well. That was what attracted me to her. During our 2 days of hanging around, I really liked the way she talked about things, held a conversation and never acted like most girls at her age who always whine and play games with guys.
At the end of these 2 days, I said whatever and told her what I wrote above. I also asked her what type of a relationship she is after and she said she is looking for a long-term relationship. I said I am leaving in a few months and I am confused about what to do with our situation. She confessed to me that she also liked me and would like to give it a chance but she also made clear that one needs a long history before carrying out a long distance relationship and it is not possible between the two of us, which is a thing we both agreed on.
We also had a small talk about the age difference and she mentioned that I am a university graduate and she still has to attend university, we are living two different and distinct lives. I told her that age does not matter and it can be solved since she is a lot mature than a 18 years old. She just smiled and said she can't beleive she is hearing these from me and was caught by surprise.
Now, we didn't have a serious date yet but we are texting on the phone back and forth and she is responding positively to all my flirting and advances. I really like being next to her and I am willing to spend my time with her at least until I leave. I know I might have sounded weak by discussing this problem with her instead of escalating without telling her about my interest directly bu I am really confused on what to do and would like to hear some advice.
