Yes we are both focusing on career and education, I am just at a further stage than him while he just finished his first internship. When you say it's not a problem, do you mean being in each other's lives or us having feelings for each other ?

Yes we are, weirdly we discussed how important that is because we have a shared faith. We really bonded over that.

Can't hurt to try and date then, just be aware that people will give you both looks and judge you both

Can friends date though? Meaning we can be friends but do couple things like go to dinner, see a movie, do fun activities together, comfort and support each other, and whatever else we feel like doing together. People never gave us weird looks because I look really young and he presents as older. He couldn't believe me when I told him my age and would say I look so pretty, youthful, and his age anytime I reminded him of my life experiences.

If you're both interested in each other then why not, better to regret doing something then living the rest of your life regretting not doing something .

Yes we are interested in the very least spending more time together. That is easy. My questions are then what? Why are we sending time together anyway ? A lot of people say that guys use their mission to find a wife, especially if they grew close to a certain lady. That lady would be me, but I always thought that a younger guy would never be good enough.

It is easy to just keep friendzoning him but it is hard to ignore his love for me or him flirting.
