and not in a creepy way! in a “wow you have lived so much more life than I have but we can still relate to each other and genuinely hangout” kind of way. I love my old friends. They make me homemade yogurt and call me “kid”
Honestly, so much more of a vibe to hang with than anyone remotely close to my age. They have the best advice, the best stories, they don’t gatekeep, they aren’t posers or social climbers and have zero ulterior motives to get into your pants.
My best friend is a 93 year old monk and my other best friends are an 80 year old married couple who sing folk songs in wine bars. I like the way they all view life as both a gift and method. I am proud to bring novelty to their lives and pleased that they don’t treat me as such.
