Maybe he was worried you were showing more than a friendly interest in him and it bothered him a little? I'm not saying this is the case, just that he could have misread it.

 

I don't think your climbing with him is wrong at all. If you're both happy climbing together, do so. You're not harming anyone by doing that.

 

I understand how you feel about your friend. I have a male friend 14 years older than me and he's lovely, such a genuinely nice person and I enjoy his friendship.

 

I'd say stick with your friend. That's what he is after all.

 

Good luck
