“I like this guy, but unfortunately he’s much older than me and even worse, already taken, should I tell him how i feel?”

Jo’s Advice
Boring, boring, boring.
You think I haven’t heard that before? You think you’re special?
I don’t know how you can even consider that a problem. I mean, there are people out there with terminal illnesses. People with crippling psychological conditions. People with incontinence. These are problems.
Being in love with someone who doesn’t love you, or is out of your league, or is with somebody else – that’s just normality. Simple human condition. That’s the way life goes – and I’m sick of hearing about it.
Why can’t you do what most people do – go out and get pissed and bore your friends to death with your misery. Or try to pick up the barman.
Either way, don’t pester me with your pathetic unrequited love.
In fact, let it be known across the world that Ask The Gorskys is not a forum for lovelorn losers. It is a sensitive and caring problem page for those who can’t be helped by conventional means. So unless you’ve got an arm growing out of your back, or you’re being stalked by your little sister, or you’ve got a strange addiction to Jerry Springer, I don’t want to hear from you.
Except if your unrequited love involves a domestic pet – then I’m interested.
