Need some ideas for a gift.

Ok Valentines day is in a week and I am not sure what to get this girl I like. Now I know I have been booed off of here for this type of thing before but I think I have hooked this one girl but need help reeling her in. There just one major problem. She is 24 and I am 17. I'm not sure a woman of that age would even consider me. We talk everytime we work together. I find myself making every excuse to go into work on my nights off just to see her. I mean I feel like I am obsesed with her but I just like her a lot. I think I could have a legit chance with her its just that I don't know how to get her attention. I have thought about seeing if she would like to go bowling somenight but then figured that would be too childish for her. Theres just so much in common between us two. So my plan was to either A. Ask her to be my valentine or B. Just buy her a gift but not sure what kind of gift. I think candy comes off to cheap and roses may come off too strong if I don't set them up somehow. I have been waiting for the perfect opportunity to tell her how I feel but it hasn't seemed to come up yet. I mean she tells me about everynight that I am a good friend but I just don't get that vibe that she thinks the same way of me as I do her. I mean I am looking for a mature relationship and not some quick score. So does anyone and any advice to set up the giving the roses to her? I need to act fast because Saturday-Mon is all the time I have. I need to try and see if I can work that Wednesday so I can stick around see her more. I mean I wake up thinking about her I go to sleep thinking of her, when I daydream in school its about her. I just wish there was suck a thing as a genie...I'd wish I was 25. So agian does anyone have any tips on how to attract someone older than you? What would you do if you were me? How would you set it all up? I think maybe Saturday during work I will ask her if she wants to go do something after work like go bowling...

Get her a gift certificate to a spa for a massage or facial.

Or you can throw your money in the toilet & flush. Trust me on this one, unless you have something special to offer her (read: monetary or material things) there is no way a 24yo girl is going to waste her time with someone who is 17. I may be wrong but you are probably wasting your time.

"I mean she tells me about everynight that I am a good friend but I just don't get that vibe that she thinks the same way of me as I do her."

This is exactly why you have no chance.^^^ This means you're there as a shoulder to cry on or a designated driver. You have ZERO chance of hooking up if she says this to your face.

First off realize there is no shot. As kudos to the first reply, your wastin your money. I ve been there, you cant go to bars drink dance or whatever with her youul be the sidekick for when she gets dumped on shell come to you to unload as a friend. My advice for valetines, save your money get a blow up cause you get more mileage out of it and it will be there in the morning.

If you're set on getting her something, go small; maybe one rose and a card. That way when she says she doesn't like you that way, you could always go back to blow up like "smkeater" suggested and a pack of inner tube patches.

tweny four as an older woman.. That is funny.


She tells you that you are a good friend... she is trying to tell you in a nice way that she is not romantically inclined towards you. Ask her if she has a younger sister...joking...

take the hint and save yourself some grief.

I agree with Budha, go small. If she just wants friendship then you're not going to come off the fool, if she would be interested in more you can always go bigger next time, if she blows you off, you haven't wasted a bunch of money (roses are spendy).

Yea but this girl isn't the typical 24yo. I mean its not like she is way out of my league. She is just older than me. I might go in there tomarrow night and get my check and say hi to her. I might ask her if she wants to go to lunch this saturday.

If she's 24 and she's NOT out of your league, then there are two people with issues.

It just doesn't work. I've tried that from both ends... I've been the older one and I've been the younger one... it just doesn't work. Birds of a feather and all that.... nobody wants to be the dodo bird.

Ask her if she would buy you a case of beer and invite her over for drinks.

Seriously, the age difference between you two is a slippery slope. I'll give a "hurrumph" to the lunch plans, it's not too expensive and says I'm keen to you. If it doesn't work out, she'll likely not think anything of it and you two remain friends.

Flowers say I'm interested, but on a whole other level. Sounds like you/she aren't ready for that.

so what is a typical 24 year old?

I think you are wasting your time...how many CLubs or Bars are you going to be allowed in? zip!!...

age difference doesnt matter in a lot of relationships, but in a young persons life like you two, it will. find you a nice 40 year old stay at home mom that wants to ding-a-ling on the side while hubby's at work

Don't "might" nothing....why "might"?

Confidence Daniel-son, confidence.

Tell her she is by far the sexiest woman you have ever layed eyes on, and you would not be able to sleep if she said "no" to a simple dinner date.

Then, take her out and have a good time. Your not going to be wasting any money, because you'll be spending your money on yourself too.




*just dont take her shopping.

She's 24 and your 17. I'm going to have to say...give up on this one. One reason being that if you do hook her when she's out drinking with her friends at the bars, you'll be sitting at home watching tv wondering if she is cheating on you. Also..not sure when you turn 18 but a 24 year old with a 17 year old is illegal in some states. If ya'll end up having sex...she could be charged with statutory rape or something to that affect.

Why are people telling him that?

When I was 16 I dated a 26 year old for about 2 years. Age is only a number to some people,and if he can get some hoopie patch for his dang-dang, what better way to learn some really good stuff then bang an old chick?

Cut out a hole, put your pecker in the box and give that to her.
