but i dont think this has to do with my father. when i met this guy i didnt even know his age and i thought maybe he was 40. i dont really find older men to be attractive in general. just him and i wish that this guy weren't so old. i mean i wish there was an available, younger version of him.
i understated his age i think that hes actually closer to 60
but i didnt want the responses to all be like hes too old for you or something because i am fine with the age
and im not looking to spend the rest of my life with him or anything
maybe hell live more than 10 years (i hope) lol
but i wish i can ask him if he can do some things with me before he dies, lol

Well, to me, age doesn't matter at all. And it's really not anyone else's place to judge you. I got ALOT of not-so-nice comments when I was with my ex husband, because people assume that I was only with him for his money. He actually treated me better than anyone else ever came close to, and he was chasing me around for 4 years before I even considered dating him.
I agree that the only real issue you have is that he has a girlfriend. I wouldn't expect much to come of it, and if it did, I doubt if you would have the same kind of respect for him if he cheated on his girlfriend. But I don't think there is any harm in letting him know how you feel and getting it off your chest. As long as you make it clear that you aren't expecting him to leave his gf or anything and you are respectful about it (which you seem to be), I don't see any reason for him to avoid you.
