May geezer jump in to May-September dating?

DEAR AMY: I'm an old guy with a crush on a young woman. It is obvious that we like each other and enjoy spending time together, and I think she might have a crush on me too. I know there isn't any issue of legality -- we're both old enough to be consenting adults -- nor are there any spouses to hurt. But how creepy would it be if we ended up dating? The age difference is so great (well over a quarter-century) that there really is no possibility of a long-term relationship or children. But what about simply deciding to have a good time? What do you think?--Geezer

DEAR GEEZER: As long as it's not one of my daughters, I'm pretty cool with it.

I mean, if you don't mind hanging out with someone who has no memory of Mel Torme, and if she doesn't care if when she says, "I'm into One Direction," you reply, "Me too -- I prefer left," then I say go for it.

But I joke. Seriously, other than the varying expectations and issues brought about by your different stages in life (and the tendency of people like me to be snarky about it), this is a victimless caper. A fun relationship might actually be a true "good time" for both of you.

DEAR AMY: Regarding the issue of posting memorial notices about people on Facebook, the important thing to remember is that you are letting people know. And when they respond with a "like," that lets you know they have communicated with you. When my dear mom passed away 25 years ago, I know my computer would not have been able to handle all the "likes" if I had posted her memorial notice! I would interpret each "like" as a hug or a condolence.

--Loving Daughter

DEAR DAUGHTER: This goes to the eternal question of whether a "like" on Facebook is an endorsement or a notification -- or a hug.
