To feel ick at this?

Man early 40s. He's single but flirting with me.
Known him years, actually an old flame.

I downloaded Tik Tok yesterday only because an MUA I follow on Facebook posted a link. I got sucked in.

Anyway, phone asks me to sync my contacts and he appeared.

He hasn't posted any videos.

He is following over 4000 accounts....of course I had a nosey.

My god, 99% of them all young women with boobs out, arses out, flirting and posing at the camera.

My teenage daughter has Tik Tok but an under 16 account.
No one else I know really bothers with it apart from the tweens and teens that I know who watch the dances and funny clips.

I am a bit shocked to see him on there and honestly feel urrgh at it all.

I'm no prude but I just don't like this at all.

Am I overreacting?

It's just made me see him in a whole new light.

I can't get my head around why it bothers me so much, its not my own insecurites and he's free and single etc but I just keep thinking "ewww go away you perve!"

Would anyone else feel the same or AIBU to think like this?

I'm 42 myself and been single 6 years. I gave up OLD as sick of all the dick pics and lude comments. What is it with grown men nowadays!

Think I'll just become a nun.

Grim. I'd feel the same & would never see him in a romantic light again. I'd also be very wary. Does he have children?

I'd actually call him out on it & see

I've just spent half an hour having a good look, there's f**king 18 year old on there!

I'm so tempted to tell him but I will just look like some sort of stalker.

18, that’s grim.

Reminds me of a convo I had recently with a male friend. His cousin had just started dating a 17 year old. He is 29. I said so basically a fully grown adult man is dating a school girl. He pointed out his gf was 21 when they got together (he was 28) he couldn’t understand why I thought a 17 yo was pretty fucking different to a 21 year old. He said it’s the same. It’s actually put me right off him.
