Age Gap Love

Life is strange. When I was in my 20's I was into men older than me I wouldn't dare date anyone younger. Now, I'm in my 70's and in love with a man in his 30's.

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen. It's been a long time since I made a YouTube podcast on the craziness that lives inside my head. A lot has been going on. I am, I guess, almost two years, or I may be two years older since the last time I made a video. And life has been really crazy for me. The older I got, the more busier I have. I have been so busy I didn't have time to rant on what's going on in the universe and especially on this planet. But something has come up that I would like to talk about, and it is age gap relationships. I've been looking at a lot of YouTube videos on the subject, gay and straight, and I have found myself in a gay uh excuse me. Well, it's a gay age gap love. Let's put it that way. And what do you do if you manage in love with someone who is let's put it this way, 40 years your junior? Which means I am this person's great grandfather, I think. I mean, it's really crazy. It's really crazy. Now you may say, well, does this person love you back? And the answer is I don't know. I'm just playing it very mild-mattered. And um, does this person look up to me is the problem because this person always called me sir. When I was his age, first I'm I'm from New York, and when you're from New York, you very rarely call anybody sir. You call them by their either name, their first name, or their last name. Or Mr. or Mrs., if you're my age, to be polite. I mean, I'm gonna be honest with you. I when I had a job in Connecticut at the newspaper, my manager who hired me, uh, first thing she said was, um, I called her Mrs., blah, blah, blah. And she said, No, don't call me Mrs. blah, blah, blah. Call me Sandy. That was her first name. Actually, yeah, Sandra was her first name, but she, everybody called her Sandy. She said, Call me Sandy. And she was old enough to be my grandmother, but she wanted to be called Sandy. And I think that's a north in the thing, because when I moved south, everything is ma'am. Well, I always knew ma'am and sir because I had cousins from the south. Every time they come up north, they always say ma'am and sir. So when I moved south, it's ma'am or sir. Um, when I moved down, um, it's Mr. E or Mr. Eric. Very um, they're very polite and and they're very uh mannered people here. So being called Sir is um I gotten used to it, but been a while. So here is someone who's calling me sir. Whether they look up to me, I don't know. I would think and I get the feeling they um value value me for my age, and we have conversations about what I went through through the 70s, what's going on through now and on our planet is to me hasn't hasn't changed. It's what I went through the 70s a lot, especially New York City. I mean, I don't live there. I haven't lived in New York City since 2008, but it it it reminds me what's going on there now, like New York City of the 70s, you know, homelessness, the uh graffiti all over the car, people snatching pocketbooks, children I should say, snatching pocket books back then, you know. So now it's the 20, it's the 21st century. And I found myself in love, and I'm saying to myself, is it really love? Or is just just your um well, let's put it this way, is it physical? And it could be physical. I mean, sometimes we think we love someone f and we know we're attracted to them physically. And um, I'm gonna be honest with you, when I was in my 20s, I might see somebody I uh I said, oh boy, I'm in love with this person. Then when you go home with them, this is after a couple of drinks, and then when you go home with him, um and and the sex is horrible, there's no passion, there's no this, there's just a physical, uh, how you say, motorized sex physically, and that's it. And they light a cigarette, I mean, that's not sexy. And I realize that back then that's not love, that was just sex, and the sex wasn't even that good. So I know better. So now I'm telling myself or asking myself, what is going on? And why would anybody in their 30s want to be bothered with someone in their 70s? But to be quite honest with you, I was never ever interested in any guy younger than me. I've always I did find myself very attractive to older older men. But now since I'm an older man, I'm kind of weird feeling attracted to someone that that young. But then again, when you get a certain age, you're a grown man, you're a grown man. Once you reach that age, I mean the 30s. So and that and that came across my mind too. I think I've even put it on my Facebook page. Um, I said a 74-year-old in love with a 31-year-old, does that make them a pedophile? Because of the age difference, and I don't know. All I'm saying is it's been a long time since I did a podcast. It's been a long time since I rant. So many people on these on social media have been ranting lately. I didn't feel myself um encouraged to put up my rant. But this is my rant right now. An old decrepit 75-year-old man in love with a 31-year-old man. What should he do? Thank you for listening to the craziness that lives inside my head.
