so me 21f and this guy 28m have know each other for almost 7 years, and he was/ is one of my karate instructors. I didn’t have many friends so he ended up taking me to my quince when he was like 22 and i was 15 ik a little weird but i didn’t have anyone else and he was nice enough to do that. I ended up moving out of my parents house and stopping karate so i haven’t seen him in like 3 years but i recently started karate again and he’s still there. I’ve always had a crush on him would it be weird for me to ask him out, maybe not out out but to get some drinks sometime to catch up. How would i approach it if i even should lmao thanks for any advice!

The age difference is what makes it a bit difficult I think. The fact that you’ve known him for a while is okay because you have a grasp of his background. I don’t think there’s any problem aside from the age gap that could be a bit problematic, people could talk and assume that you guys had something when you were younger (because you already knew each other) and that could bring him a “bad” reputation due to his position as a karate instructor.
Has he showed interest in you (before/now)?
You’ll never know if you don’t try. You’ve known him for a long time so you probably have a lot in common!
