Borrow the rhythm of someone else’s lived-in joy and pain. Watched marriage equality bloom. Some older men carry biases, too. But friendship? It thrives in authenticity.

Some older gay men won’t be your campy fairy godfathers.

As a writer, you want depth? It’ll stretch you. Ask someone who’s felt them.

You don’t have to be old to write older.

It’s a story about caring for someone not your age—and discovering how life-changing it can be when someone truly sees you.

If you haven’t lately, talk to an older gay person. Maybe he wore linen button-downs and smelled like cedar. Just write them as being human.

In real life, striking up a conversation with someone older can flip your script.

However, disappointment was the only thing I met until I stumbled upon Cupid.com, which changed my story. When gay bars were sacred, not Instagrammable. Invite nuance.
