I just wanted to talk about it here because it was super fun and car-related! We met up at a go kart place and she bought us each a race, and then it took really long for a birthday party to finish up ahead of us, so they gave us each a bonus race on the house. I had the best overall lap time, but she had the best average. Then we went to the arcade and she bought us each a $50 game card without thinking twice. (I felt so bad, but she insisted on paying for everything) We played every racing game they had and then got lunch, and our waitress (or waite r? Their nametag said Christopher but they had super cool eyeshadow, so I dunno) was ridiculously nice and that’s not really relevant, but it was cool nonetheless. But anyway, then we left my truck there and she drove me to Motorcars of Atlanta, an exotics dealer, where we saw a Senna, a Diablo, three Cullinans, and so much more. Then we went to her place and played Tetris while eating Chex Mix, and I didn’t get home until 9 hours after we first met. The only weird thing is she’s ten years older than me (I’m 24) but like... there was so much chemistry. We didn’t do more than hug once at the end, but still. I dunno. I've just never gone out with someone else who's into cars. It was easily the best first date I've ever had.

I’m glad that you had a good time. My only advice is to try not to worry about the long term, big picture stuff. If you enjoy spending time with someone, do that.
Also, if you're unsure about waiter vs waitress, you can always just go with "our server."

That sounds like an awesome date! Oddly enough, I’m 24 and also recently met someone exactly 10 years older who has been great, but has paid for basically everything which makes me feel kinda bad

Very cool. I once dated a woman who was into cars in a big way. She did all her own maintenance, and I taught her how to drive a manual in my former miata so that she could drive her dad’s meticulously restored 70 C hevelle for the first time when she went home for Christmas. She was a wonderful person, and the car angle made it all the much better that we had something in common that were both so passionate about. It didn’t work out in the end, but she was the first person I dated whom I actually thought there could be a long-term with. We’re still good friends to this day. At the time, we were in different places in terms of careers and what we wanted to be when we grew up long-term. Had we met a few years later, our relationship probably would’ve turned out very differently. Enjoy your time with this person . The other stuff via the age difference and whatnot will fall where it will down the road.

I've been married 19 years and my spouse is 10 years older than me. Sometimes the chemistry works.

One tip, from a serial over thinker, live in the moment, enjoy the time you have now and let the future take care of itself.
Sounds like you had one amazing date! I just had a pretty long relationship break down in spectacular fashion and the thought of dating is a little un nerving right now.
But hey, 34 isn’t that old at all! Have some fun and live in the moment, let the future write itself. Congratulations!

This is pretty interesting, mainly because I’m on the other end of this. I’m 32, but most of the people around my area that are my age are married with kids. The 25 age range usually still have kids too though. So I’ve been getting attention from younger women. Life is odd sometimes, but age is just a number. It’s all about personality.
Arrivederci

Having fun and clicking with someone is what matters most in starting a relationship. Age is only a number - my wife is almost eight years younger than I am.
