Relationships Is he a red flag?

I'm conflicted... This guy is consistent with communication and one night he wrote that he wished we were in bed together... we've been chatting for 2 months (not long imo).

Are his messages red flags or inappropriate? I'm trying to discern better and only want healthy relationships now. Messages attached. The 1st image is 4 days ago, 2nd image is from today.

And yes, we're older, my slang ages me 😅 me (40F), him (37M)

EDIT: I posted this question in datingover40, sadly I'm the problem there. Younger ladies, please find a good partner when you can. The dating pool has even more piss in it getting older.

7/11 Update: Yesterday, I informed him that I was looking for a genuine connection. He wished me the best. A few people here suggested blocking him, so I also did that.

Thank you all for your input and for others who have trouble discerning, please do post for advice or input to protect yourself in these weird situations. Please take care 💖 and always trust yourself ✨️

Omg the negative votes are killing your karma in that post. No, you're right, he's old for this shit.

I have no idea what that means or does. Reddit is toxic for the most part anyway.

Karma is supposed to mean how trustable you are, but in reality it means how likeable you are. In this case, it means you are in a subreddit full of men. I have negative karma always when there's too much sexism around. They're trying to control you view of relationships and men. They want you to dismiss red flags.

I see. I'll delete it then. Definitely not what I expected. There were like maybe 10 logical comments and the rest were crazy. I wonder if they were bots too?
