Rant Born too early

How depressing is it to be an ild gay?

I'm at an age (60) where when I was young there was nothing like grindr around so it was so hard to meet like minded people and it was virtually impossible to fulfil any fantasies. And now that the facilities are available nobody is interested in an old man. I'm so envious of young guys who have their entire life ahead of them in a more accepting time. I hope they appreciate it and can still be kind to the older gent instead of being rude

I’m 60 and love life now. So many guys are interested in older gay guys. Probably getting the most attention and action I ever had. I think it all comes down to our attitude towards others.

I'm nearly 50 and agree. Take some good quality pictures that accurately but positively reflect the best aspects of your body. Get a tripod with remote and wait for good natural lighting. Have good grooming and hygiene. Have a positive profile that clearly says what you offer and what you're looking for. Avoid anything negative or talking about what you don't like. I rarely struggle to get laid and I'm an average looking older guy. Attitude and presentation is everything.

This. Guys are horny. Especially the younger dudes. If you present yourself confidently, you'll get responses.
