So he’s 22 and I’m 16.

I really like a guy that I used to work with. He quit but we still see each other a lot. The reason so is that I’m quite mature for my age and I appear to be older. I’m definitley not in love with him but I really hold strong feelings for him. I have no idea if he’s interested or if he just wants to be good friends. What do I do?

hes 22. hes an adult.
youre 16. whether youre mature or not, youre still 16. youre still a child.
if he is interested in you, he is a pedophile.
but 99% chance, that he is not.
sorry, but thats life.

I thought 16 was the age of consent, in which case he’s not a paedophile

I’m skeptical of self-proclaimed maturity - that in and of itself is proof that you’re maturity level is sufficent to that of a 16-year-old girl. Further, no matter how open you are to this guy, you could get him into life-long trouble for something that you do. Further yet, you haven’t had experience with a sufficent ammount of guys to know what is best for you in the long run.

Now, I’ve read the other advice given to you. Only one person said “Go for it.”

What does your maturity level say about that?

it depends where you are as to the age of consent.
