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.
You know when you’re at a hotel and you can request that the front desk call you to wake you up? I like to do that in my normal life by asking my bf to call me at 7:00am- instead of an alarm I answer a phone call and have a nice little chat to start the day.
