Older guy and younger girl

So I'm 18 and I broke up with my high school boyfriend a bit ago so I moved on and I went on tinder as a joke and I found this sweet guy I just clicked with And he 23 and I was a bit wary of his age but the more I got to know him the more I liked him and when he asked me out on a date he said I could choose any place and I did and he would pick me up and drop me off back home in aware how wrong this could go but when I told my mom about this she wants me to cancel or find another way to get there and go home but I don't yet have my license
