Okay, I just found out that a much younger guy 11 years to be exact has truly liked me for a while and has finally gotten the courage to ask me out. He says it isn't just an infatuation, but I'm 32 years old, so I wonder if he can truly be interested. He is very mature for his age, and I take good care of myself and most people think I am 27 or so. I guess honestly I am a little intimidated by this because I wonder what he sees or if I just seem old.

I have to admit that I do like this guy, and I'm honestly a little embarrassed to be so immature about this, but I've normally dated people who were older than me, so I am in new territory.

Does anyone have advice, personal experience etc. Guys? can you tell me why a guy might like an older women ( fo real and not some flippant answer please) Thank you

I am so perplexed. I am 32, in great shape, and started dating a guy 35 who is in great shape. We both admitted that we were very sexual people and wanted to make love often. He was on vacation when we met, so we had unlimited time together and we were together almost every minute for about 2 1/2 weeks while he was on vacation. Now work has started up again, and his job is terribly demanding. He works from home, but that he is tied to his computer and conference calls all day and can be called out at night without warning.

At the beginning of the relationship, he was much more open, confessing that it was love at first sight etc. He basically made it known that although it was too early, he knew that "I was the one" on and on and on... I felt the same way, but we agreed to be patient and let the relationship unfold because we both have kids and didn't want to be impulsive.

Now that work has started up again, he still calls and comes by, but it is much less. He is very preoccupied with work, and his exercise. I exercise every day too, but I would make sure to make time for him.

He just seems like he's almost a different person now. He comes by and sleeps sometimes, but is too tired for sex etc.

I am just brokenhearted. I talked to him and asked if he was no longer interested in the realtionship, and he said that he was very happy, but that he was just too busy right now to spend as much time as before. He said he is not trying to slowly drift away, or anything like that and that he is attracted to me, but that he just gets exhausted from work and all of his obligations.

I believe that he deserves the benefit of the doubt and I am not angry that his job is demanding, but I don't want to be head over heels in love with someone who no longer feels the same.

We've only been together about two months. I know it is silly to be in love so quickly, but I know he is the one, I'm just hoping that it is work that is making him worn out.

Thanks in advance for your answers

An oil company produces supreme and regular gasoline. each reg. barrel sells for $21. each supreme barrel for $25. The reg gas must have an octane of at least 90, the supreme, at least 97. These gasolines are made by mixing three inputs.

Input 1 costs $17.25 per barrel, has a 100 octane rating, and there are 150,000 barrels available. Input 2 costs $15.75 per/b. has an octane rating of 87 and has 350,000 b. available. Input 3 costs $17.75 has octane of110 and there are 300,000 b. available. There is an order for 300,000 barrels of reg, and 450,000 of supreme. How should the company allocate the available inputs to the production of reg, and supreme in order to maximize profits. How do I set up the decision variables and constraints? If I do that I can solve in excel. Thanks
