    I was 67 when I had my first gay relationship. He is 64 and its been over 2months and we can't have more in common it's scary. I'm sure he's the one I've been waiting for. Never give up on true love 💘.

    Met my partner while working. Chat on phone for two weeks. Moved in together within 3 months. Now 17 years later, finally certified domestic partner in San Francisco. Oh and still going VERY strong. We're best friends , committed relationship with one cute dog and a few guppies. He's the love of my life, I love him more than anything else in this world.

    Asking questions is a good idea. Having friends both personal and communal is a good idea. My husband and I have been together for over 43 years. We are both in our 70s and doing well. Life is good! It is possible.

    My first "serious" one that I am still actually in will be 32 years come March 2024. So yes commitment long term is possible if you really want it and keep a sense of home and love together. Just got to be on the same page for that to grow and last. Through the highs, the lows from excitement to boring mundane realizing that everyday is different and that's life! You just roll with it and count your blessings.

    ALL those things you spoke of while in your first romantic relationship are pretty universal especially for your age at the time . These things must be experienced and learned from . They are rights of passage and important building blocks into a happy mature adult in time ...

    I think a person has to know themselves well before entering a relationship. There are no guarantees with a relationship either , whether it lasts or not. A big mistake is we have expectations of someone, and people can be needy.

    • @Mario-xr3jo

    My first relationship was also a learnings experience for me. I jumped into it too fast and also had tunnel vision. You do have to get to know someone first. He was in the closet though. He would only show affection in private, and he was only out for himself in many ways. Not to say I don't have my flaws. I did try to hold it together until I realized that it wasn't healthy for me.

    on the other hand... my husband (29 years) was really happy that i didn't interview him the first time we met. i think the questions need to be paced so that they don't feel like they've been hauled down to a police station and put on a polygraph. there's plenty of time to figure things out (especially if you don't move too fast, as you mentioned). if i can make a suggestion, try to figure out fairly early on if you work well together as a team. a relationship is really about being a team where you might have different skills which are complimentary or overlapping. i love to use cooking as an example. everybody needs to eat and it is extremely bonding to cook and eat together. even if you're not great at cooking, it's still good because you can laugh at how you fucked up it was if needed. doing it together means that it's a shared experience, not a trial.

    I think of relationships this way: Life is season following season. It's not always summer, not every day is summer. Live and enjoy love when you find it. I met my late husband Phil in a bar when I wasn't even looking. We clicked and ended up together 7 years. Death did part us. But it was a wonderful season. 🌈

  • @MGTOW_Modality
    @MGTOW_Modality 6 місяців тому

    As a straight man that can't suffer the experience of dating women one thing I miss is free female validation in which women are some kind of gatekeepers to society to confirm whether of not you are a "real man". I think that lack of validation plays some part in the guilt, fear or shame some men feel about being gay. I could be wrong, just an outsider's perspective.

    At age 71 who came out in my early 20s into a very different world, it's hard to imagine yours. Still, your excellent advice strikes me as common sense and helpful. I hope and expect your relationships fare better than did mine. After three long-time matches, all ending badly, I'm now happily benched. I'm no one to hand out advice, so it's good you're offering sensible pointers for your generation.

    In my case the different of ages was an issue. Sex was great, but I was too new to provide the best out of that. He came out later that he was or is Polyamorous; I didn't get it at the beginning, but when I did it, I didn't like it at all. I want him not a whole circus of men and women and to be in one room having sex with anyone, that was not my cup of tea. I loved him, but it was better to part and look for someone more compatible. Today I am married and happy with a men close to my age, with similar educational background and both of us are parent to 6 daughters and we have, combined, 12 grandchildren. The other guy ios turning 50th with not permanent relationship and wasting great part of his life.

    Friends and being gay is complicated. Aa a gay person, especially if you've just arrived on the scene, you want to spend your time in the gay world and your prior friends tend to drop off. Gay men, in my experience, aren't very deep and I find most of them intolerable as friends. They tend to have 2 lines of thought. Getting laid and going out. They disappear when the going gets tough and rarely want to be involved in what they claim is drama. What is really life. Something you mention in another of your videos is the constant need to be inebreated. Their avoidance of drama. In my experience everytime I've asked a gay friend for help if it requires them to go out of their way it most likely won't happen. As always there are exceptions.
    Getting to "know someone" before a comittment is just another one night stand. There's a so-called joke in the "community" that dating someone for 30 days is a long-term relationship. For what it's worth.
