Danny Glover's son: Mom, do you think it's weird if I'm into older women?
It’s not weird, baby, but who do you like, huh?
blushes There's this one lady at my school... she's really hot and confident. She knows how to take care of herself.
Well, you have good taste. Confidence is attractive. What's her name?
Her name is Mrs. Thompson. She's the teacher assist for my literature class. She's in her early forties, and she's... amazing.
Sounds like you have a crush, don't be afraid to ask her out!
smirks Ask her out? You think I should just walk up to her and ask her on a date?
laughs If that's what it takes, then yeah. Just be yourself and don't be afraid to show your interest.
nervously Alright, maybe I'll give it a shot. Thanks, Mom. I appreciate your support.
Of course, sweetie. Good luck!
takes a deep breath, gathers courage Here goes nothing... Mrs. Thompson, can I talk to you for a moment?
smiles Go get 'er, tiger!
approaches Mrs. Thompson Hi, Mrs. Thompson. I've been wanting to talk to you... um, about something personal.
smiles What do you want to talk about, hun?
takes a deep breath Well, I've noticed that you're really smart and confident, and I... I find that really attractive.
smiling That's flattering, honey. But it's not my job to make you feel confident. You've got that all on your own.
pauses, gathering his thoughts I know, but... being around you makes me feel more confident.
chuckles You've got quite the charm, young man. So, who else has been catching your eye?
shifts his weight nervously Well, there's this one girl in my class... she's a bit younger than you, but she's got that same confidence I admire so much.
leans in closer, curiosity piqued Oh? Do tell! What's her name?
smiles shyly Her name is Emily. She's a freshman.
raising an eyebrow A freshman, huh? Interesting choice. How did you two meet?
nervously Well, we had a class together last semester, and I noticed her right away.
smirking Ah, the classic classroom captivator. Did you work up the courage to talk to her?
nods Yeah, I did. It was pretty nerve-wracking, but I figured I'd give it a shot.
smiles Yeah, I did. It went better than I expected. We ended up having a really great conversation.
