my minister and i are going out, LONG-ISH POST!
Alright, so around February I made an entry about being in love with my minister. I was 17 at the time.
Anyways, so I managed to make it about four months without anything happening. And we would do our little weird awkward flirting thing that we had started doing. I'd laugh at something he said that wasn't really funny, but he thought it was. I'd run my hand over his shoulder, blah blah and all that good stuff.
But about a month and a half ago, I was helping out with this food bank we have in the basement of my church, and I had to run upstairs to get a pair of scissors, and he was in his office, and he heard me coming up. He came out, said hi and asked me if I knew anything about hotmail, to help him out. So I was in his office for a few minutes and fixed up the problem he was having, (or I tried to, I didn't actually figure it out.)
So I turned around and was walking out and behind me he said, 'it's wrong, you know that?' At first I thought he was talking about what I'd just done to his email account. So I didn't say anything. I believe I said I didn't care, or something along those lines when I finally figured it out. And then, ladies and gentlemen, he kissed me, the best kiss in the entire world, I can't even tell you.
Needless to say we've been secretly seeing each other for the last month and a half. It's been really good though. We've gone to the movies, dinner, just hung out. And then when Sunday rolls around, we pretend everythings cool.
I already know that this huge age gap isn't totally normal, and all that. And I know for me that these feelings are normal and that I am looking to him as a mentor type thing. But what I was wondering, is at his age, is it normal for him to want to start a relationship with an 18 year old girl?
Hes 43 now, I'm 18. And he has a 16 year old son from a previous marriage. It's pretty messed up, I'm just wondering about him though.
