OP Here.
In all honesty, I am a bit interested now that 4ch has clarified the situation. The problem is I have no idea how I would go about communicating interest without seeming strange myself.
There are plenty of people in my age group dating people a year younger, but no one going as far as 2 years younger. I realize this is a non-issue in college and later on, but it seems taboo in HS for some reason.
Any way around this? Should I try indirect communication via a friend of mine (who has the wonderful attribute of not caring what others think of him - otherwise known as having balls)?
