should i stay away?

a while back i started a thread bout a guy from work who i like who was a bit older (11years) and who i was a bit unsure about. we've still not gone out or anything yet, but we're texting all the time and stuff.

anyway, i've always known he indulges in a few illegal substances, but have found out today that he does abit of dealing too. normally i'd stay well away from things like that, but there's something about him that i do really like. i well dont know what to do!!

any advice please??

Can you remind me how old you are?

Personally I wouldn't get involved either way...:s-smilie:

Are you looking for a serious relationship, or just some fun? If it's the former it's probably not going to form a good foundation for the relationship :s-smilie: I wouldn't feel like I could depend on him, or introduce him to my parents, and not that I make a beeline for it or anything; but if it did get serious then I couldn't envisage moving in together in future or anything like that. Can you see a future?? If not is it really worth it?

i'm not really sure what im after. more a bit of fun cos im not looking to settle down and am planning on moving away next year.

it's a bit like the angel on one shoulder, devil on the other. part of me is saying absolutely not, but there's a stronger part saying maybe it's not that important

I think by the fact that you're unsure gives you the answer you're looking for.

By dealing, how hardcore are we talking? I know a fair few people who sell drugs but they're not exactly big time dealers! I'm moving in with one next year, he merely supplies his friends with drugs hes hardly what i would consider 'a dealer.'

Oh yes, I'd get involved with the drug dealer who's over a decade older than you, seems like a really sensible thing to do. Make sure you have plenty of unprotected sex whilst you're at it, and don't forget the drugs and the cigarettes. Sounds like a sweet deal...

i would like to thank anon1 for jumping to conclusions about me from not a lot of information.

i never have unprotected sex (well, except with a long term partner having been checked and such like) and have never ever done drugs and dont see the appeal personally. and cigarettes?? what's so wrong with that?!

but basically, i've decided to get to know him a bit better and to question him more on the topic because i dont exactly know what's going on and i want to know more. if it is just a case of weed and a few mates then im not really that arsed tbh!
