Is it possible to be in love with the idea of love even after turning 60?

There’s a divorced man who tells me things like, “I want you to marry me,” “I love you,” and “I’ll wait until you fall for me.” From my perspective, he doesn’t genuinely like me. It seems he’s either lying when he says he’s seriously in love with me or is simply in love with the idea of love. He shows no consideration or thoughtfulness toward me whatsoever and only behaves in self-centered ways. Since he has declared that he’s seriously in love with me, I use that to my advantage by firmly warning him or confronting him about that kind of behavior. Being able to vent my stress on the spot means that, as long as I receive an allowance, this relationship isn’t particularly difficult for me. Also, because he’s repeatedly made me uncomfortable lately, I no longer trust him and have stopped having an adult relationship (intimate) with him. We only meet for about an hour twice a month to have tea. I’ve told him that I don’t like him at all, I’ve said harsh things to him as described above, and I receive an allowance without having an adult relationship (intimate) with him. Since he would be getting significant disadvantages out of this relationship if he were lying about being seriously in love with me, I’ve started to think that he’s more likely in love with the idea of love. However, what bothers me is that he wasn’t inexperienced with women all his life. Although the marriage ultimately ended in divorce, he has been married before. Can someone who was capable of that really be in love with the idea of love at this point in life?
