Wouldn't You Know It

It's T minus 35 hours and I met someone interesting.  We went on a hike this morning for a first date after chatting for a good chunk of the night on Scruff.  He seemed nice and there were some things we saw eye to eye on and, honestly, I want to see him again.

The housemate went ballistic.  Why?  He's 24.

I don't find it a deal.  The only ground rule I have is if someone is much younger than me, they don't have an issue with the age difference.  I always ask early on, and if there is a problem my feelings aren't hurt.  I understand not everyone would want to be involved in that situation as evidenced by that Rick was 25 years my senior.

The housemate finds it objectionable, wrong and wonders how I could do such a thing.  He made that one clear in no uncertain terms.  No, I don't understand what his deal is.  That said it obviously runs counter to my opinion that as long as it's consensual and both parties are over 18, there isn't a problem.

It will be something to think about for the next six weeks give or take.
