I'm not sure whether I've truly earned that lofty title yet but I'm always available to help

what's up?

You're rational, spiritual, and are more prone than most X-Men to looking before you metaphorically leap. Don't argue, I've assigned the title, it's going to stick.

Am I a horrible person for feeling bad over breaking a 17yo girl's heart?

I'm afraid I need a little more context than that, David

[Oh, he KNOWS there has to be a confused blink or two.]

Apparently I was accidentally leading a girl on. She asked me out last night and it got weird. Because if she wasn't the age she is, or I wasn't the age I am, I'd probably have said yes.

I mean, age gaps aren't all bad, basically just look at Logan and literally anyone. But there's age gaps and there's literally a minor in most countries.

well

you did the right thing in turning her down
and it's not necessarily wrong to feel bad about hurting someone, even if your intentions were good. it shows that you're a caring person.

Yeah, I was pretty sure the 'no' was the right choice.

Guess I'm sitting here like 'why couldn't she just be older' and that's sorta... weirding my brain out at the same time?
