He's been having people call me (as he doesn't speak English very well) practically every day, asking if we can hang out. I like him, but I'm very comfortable in my life right now. Besides, he'll be going back to Italy for a month. Then he'll be back for 6 months. I'm just not sure. He's been more of a gentleman than most of the bozos I've met from the US. He actually wants to do things outside of the bedroom! And he's very sweet & cute. The age difference does bother me... enough to be hesitant to ask him how old he actually is. He knows that I have grandchildren as well. Doesn't seem to bother him!
sweetowen: There's this young hot Italian guy who comes into the place my friend & I hang out in who seems genuinely interested in me. There are a few problems though. I'm not sure of his age, but he's seems quite a bit younger. I'm 43 & I'd judge him to be in his 20s. Also, he barely speaks any english & I find myself trying to remember my 2 years of spanish class from high school! I'm not even sure if Italian is the same or similar to Spanish! Thirdly, my friends are warning me that he may be looking at me as a ticket to gain citizenship into the country. Believe me, my guard is up. But he IS cute! I need some opinions please...
Every woman should experience this at least once (once is usually enough)..

Follow your intuition, and listen to what your friends are saying. Remain objective.

I am rankly surprised about your looks and age. If you like Italian guy then go for it(could been much worse) and the two of you have fun(even if only for five minutes).
Regarding US Citizenship only...what European would want that and what for !?? I know that persecutions are still lasting there specially in ex-communist countries, but for god sake you aren't further away yourself in the states...last time when I wanted to get read of US Citizenship, gov. figured out no way...that too can be problem you know...
sweetowen: I think I may just go with the flow & see what happens.
date him b4 he leaves-
geez he has pursued this long
its just dating for gods sake whats the big deal? thats what dating is for- to sort things out and get a closer look
and as far as grandkids-italians-speakin as one raised in the culture
family structure is important tho not in the same ways as here im sure he doesnt think at all about you having grandchildren the more the merrier is the only way they look at it...
and im sorry but the whole americans thinking everyone wants to be here- thats so inaccurate in these times this country is completely disorganized and the dollar is worth 62cents to the euro and 50 cents to the pound
hate to say it but europeans are not interested in american citizenship by and large and italians dont havre much trouble getting it on their own
this isnt 1985-marriage in another country, especially US doesnt guarantee anything-look it up...
geez owen go to a few dinners and a movie-get out of your head and spend a couple hours with the guy whats the harm? if it was a woman wouldnt you be available to make friends?
for all you know after a few dates HE will be uninterested.

He did say that the family structure was different here than it is there. He said over there, the entire family lives together. Whereas, here we all think we need our own individual homes... the bigger...the better, might I add. He didn't seem taken aback at all when I showed him the pics of my grandbabies. Again, I guess I'll just see what happens. Not sure that I want to get too serious with anyone right now.
