So i joined this online dating website and to no avail I have had some pretty good results to my surprise even. So I actually met this one girl who lives rather close to me. We emailed back and forth for awhile and then met for lunch. We actually hung out again last nite with one of her friends over her house. I am not really good with these types of situation as far who makes the first move or anything like that so I dont want to come across as not interested yet thier is an age difference of 6 years. She is 25 and I am 31 which I really dont is that big of a deal but I for some reason I dont know I am little hesitent.

The age difference is only 6 years? then go for it. The way I read it looks like a promising catch to me.
Just be nice and continue to be yourself and don't be a jerk, okay? girls want someone like a gentleman and they want to be respected. Just relax and take it slow. Get to know her well.
Good luck!

Mainly because of the age thing? I'd really say, don't worry about that, especially since 6 years really isn't that big of a difference. I think anything within 10 is fairly reasonable (as long as it's legal). Though, I suppose people have varying opinions, and you should go with what you're comfortable with. When hanging out with her and her friend, did she seem "too young"..is that it? At 25, I would assume by then most females would be fairly mature, unless they're still in that partying stage... I recently heard a radio segment, though, where the radio show host asked her panel of women what age ranges they personally felt were acceptable for dating. I think there were three of them she asked and they ranged from 31 to mid 30s, and they all said they'd date someone as old as 50. If that makes you feel any better about it, lol. I don't know....I kind of want to throw this out there, but I could be wrong....just try and keep in check that you aren't just trying to find reasons to end something before it begins, just because you might fear taking it further. As for "moves"....I have no clue what to say..... I wish you good luck, though.

According to XKCD, this relationship is comfortably outside the creepy zone. You may proceed.

6 years is nothing. My brother is married to someone 12 years older then himself. According to XKCD, this relationship is comfortably outside the creepy zone. You may proceed. Ha! ;D Love XKCD!

Are you trying to push intimacy too soon? The age difference is no big deal, but some people don't like to become intimate right away. I know there is some fear of her thinking that you're "just friends" if you don't become intimate, but you're past the first date so kissing on the first date is no longer an issue! Try to read her signals to see how intimate you should become and how fast.
