He was complaining behind me about how slow the line was while we were waiting for tickets and I turned back to apologize and say I too would be slow as I had no idea what I was doing. We were waiting for the train together and he lead the way for me to my destination, and I found him to be very interesting as a person. He alluded to saying we should spend time together, but I was very busy and only in town for a few days. He gave me his number, we were speaking of some things and he wanted to give me the contact and information of our discussions, and we have been texting sporadically, I alluded to be hopeful to see each other should be in town at the same time again, for a chat, because he is so interesting.Is this how people meet other people? I suppose I have been a bit sheltered that I don't randomly meet people on my travels and actually stay in touch. He is letting me know when he would be in town again, it would be insane of me to travel to meet someone I don't know. I find him very interesting and intriguing, and what he finds interesting in me, I don't want to be naive in not thinking he is just a man. What man builds up a friendship with a much younger female (he is in his 40s, so I suppose not too much older)...

 I think people can meet each other in any amount of different ways, they are all valid. There is nothing wrong with meeting this man, go for it, but make absolutely sure you meet in a fairly public place such as a known pub or coffee bar, and get yourself a taxi home. I would suggest this to anyone. Do not give out your address, take his mobile number. Do not go home with anyone you really do not know, please.
Don't get strung up with ages, you could actually meet a man who is quite open to women of different ages, not likely, but possible.Some men appreciate older women as indeed they should, it always seems a shame to me that in all literature old women are portrayed as sad.
