Teens know Dylan Sprouse from the Disney Channel’s “The Suite Life of Zack & Cody,” while adults might recognize the 22-year-old as that adorable blonde kid from “Big Daddy.” Today, Dylan is a student at New York University, a frequent tweeter and a dispenser of relationship advice.

The former Disney star joined Rookie’s “Ask A Grown” series, where he lent some thoughtful words of wisdom on dealing with crushes, insecurities and how to turn down dudes (in a nice way, of course).

“Just get comfortable with being stern and to the point. Be absolutely direct as soon as possible with your intentions… nip it in the bud.”

Looks like Dylan is all grown up.
