Ok so over spring break I meet my cousin's best friend Jeydon. We hanged out together during spring break and became really good friends. Jeydon is 14 and has a younger brother who is 12. I only meet Jeydon's younger brother once meet he really seemed to like me. So when I got back home Jeydon's brother somehow got my msn and began sending me Ims. He is really cool to talk to and ever since I left we have been chatting every single day. He asks me how my day was and just random stuff. And he always tells me how he wants to hang out with me, because am so cool, during the summer when I go back. I know for a fact that he has a lot of friends so I don't know how he likes me so much if he only meet me for like two hours when I went to his house. So basically I feel kinda weird because he is 12 and am 18. Also, I think i really like him too because he always makes me feel special and I can tell he looks up to me. I mean since he chat everyday he knows everything about me and I about him. I just think were getting too attached to each other and am only visiting him and his brother for 2 weeks. So should I just end our friendship or just keep on having a long distance friendship?

Well, it sounds like an awkward situation to me. But I think you should keep it. I mean, I'm guessing you don't really have a problem with it, do you?

there probably isn't a need to end the friendship but if you are feeling awkward about it, then you should take a step back. maybe not talk everyday and not allow him to substitute for someone else closer to your age who you could be friends with. just be careful how you do it though, because you don't want to hurt his feeling either.
