Hi Andy,

Well, first off the vast age difference… Don’t get me wrong, I had two amazing friends who were a generation (and a half!) older than me. The difference though, is they would encourage me to go out and have a drink with my girlfriends. And ask what I was doing on my birthday and for me to tell them all about it when I got back. And they would probably set me up with that guy LOL!

They knew I was young.

Are you sure you’re not treating her as a peer with your own expectations?

Maybe make friends with older people. At twenty-five there is a huge pressure to have all the adult things while being forever young. It’s all too much.

Best,

Inky
