Dating as a mature gay man (over 60) is a crapshoot at best. There are so many “dating” apps out there, but let’s be realistic - they are more for hooking up and one-night stands than for finding a meaningful relationship. I’m not opposed to a little fun along the way, but more often than not, those types of encounters leave me feeling empty and a little bit sad.
I met a guy on one of the apps a few months ago. Our circles had intersected over the years, it this was the first time we’d ever met. I didn’t detect any real interest, so I thought “that’s okay, at least I have a new friend.”
Today, I decided to take a bold step and messaged him that I thought we should go out on a date.
Crickets.
I’m trying to not let it get me down, but I have to be honest - this hurts.
