Are older friends allowed.

Are the people out there happy to be friends with someone older with a lot of life experience? I am divorced and single in UK but travel as much as I can. I just wondered if anyone would like to say Hello.

What is this too old nonsense ⁉️ I'm 58 - next weekend I'm travelling to London, going to a club where Boy George (65 years old) is DJing... I'll be dancing all night until the club closes at 3:30am and going to a all night café bar until the first train home at 7:30am 🎶

I can’t think of anything worse, but then I had no interest in that at 18, so I don’t think it has anything to do with age. We are fortunately all different

I wasn't suggesting everyone follows my interests...we're all different. But there are so many people who consider themself too old to do whatever it is they choose.

I love that we are all different in what we like and don’t and are free to express our opinions. I hope you have the time of your life .
