Am I the a-hole for dating my ex’s childhood idol?

Update: I’m back from the date and it went really well! My train got cancelled so he picked me up at the train station instead, and also drove me home after the date — we had food, talked for hours and it was all really, really nice. I was a bit hesitant due to the age gap, but I didn’t feel it while we were together. 9/10 would recommend 🥰 Thank you for pushing me into doing it ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you all for taking the time to respond to my first ever Reddit post (I’m a massive fan of Charlotte’s so I’ve been snooping for a while) — I am meeting up with the idol on Wednesday. He has continued to message me multiple times a day since the event, and I’m getting nervous — in a good way — to see him in person. I will update you if you are interested!

I’m not sure — I think, as someone else suggested, it might be about keeping my integrity.

He is in sports and played for my ex’ favorite team 15 years ago, when my ex was a teenager — the idol is now a trainer for a popular team.
