Am I being fetishized?

I (18ftm) have recently been using Grindr to try and find people, not for any particular purpose, just friends, fwb’s, hookups, maybe relationships etc.

Naturally with the way Grindr works and all that I’ve been really popular among older cis guys, which I usually ignore and just keep scrolling through my messages. But today I started talking to this guy that I didn’t realize was a lot older than me, we have been getting along really well and he shares a lot of interests such as a passion for art with me, and he has been very respectful of my boundaries.
He’s 35 tho, which makes me really uncomfortable for obvious reasons. He also is one of those bi men that say they are into everyone except masc cis men which…idk if that’s a good thing. He’s been genuinely so nice to talk to and such a breath of fresh air from all the typical Grindr guys but I don’t know how close I should let him get with me.

Summary: should I as an 18 year old trans guy be okay with talking to this 35 year old cis guy?
