Online dating an older man and I don't know if they are creepy or not

I have been texting/flirting with an older guy at the time I thought it was ok but know he wants to meet I asked if he texts younger girls a lot and he said yes but not 2 at one time. He is freaking me out now as I'm thinking more logically and all the stuff he has said sounds creepy. I want to block him from everything but I'm scared he might actually be an ok man and I am just going to hurt him. We have a good laugh texting and he is super smart but he somehow knows exactly what to say. Please help

If you are afraid he is creepy then block him. Don't hold on doing things because you are afraid of hurting his feelings.

so the worst case scenario is that you are 18 and he is 25?



seems like you're blowing this out of proportion imo, it isn't that big a gap
break it off :yep: hes looking for a fling:lol:

Agree blown out of proportion. 7 years isnt that much, unless you are under 16.

You yourself said he said creepy things so he probably is creepy, you should block him. Him being smart and having a laugh with him doesn't mean hes no creepy, most creepy guys can do that.

well if you're under 16 you probably should stop tbh


if you're 16/17, then if your uncomfortable with it just stop then. It's still legal ..but if you feel uneasy then stop, tbh if you're under 18 you really shouldn't be on dating sites ....so if "creepy" older men are hitting on you it's partly your fault.

This, or at least meet and remain somewhere very public.
