On the other side, as someone younger it's hard to date people much older, as they start casually talking about what they did during various wars, or comparing the COVID pandemic to the black plague, and I've just got zero frame of reference to connect.
Everyone much older I've met has been just delightful (I assume the rude ones eventually get murdered by their local townsfolk) but it's just so hard to make that genuine connection when your life experiences are so different, you know?
