someday they will be gone and you won’t be able to ask them the questions you have. deal with the awkward formality of it and just ask them things that never came up naturally. what did your grandpa think of his dad? what was your parents first date like???
my grandad is one of the best people out there and he’s about to die, i’m very glad we got to do so much stuff together and become friends. our relationship really shaped me. visit your grandparents :)
going to the bar. making conversation with people you barely know. asking someone “can i ask you a personal question?”. make bits with strangers. the love is out there if you look for it
