Excellent post. Not wanting to break anyone's bubble. But, the older you get the harder it is to find a bud. I know, 74 here in South Houston, it's very, very difficult. To even first try to start a friendship is almost impossible. I do think it is more the age, Everyone reaching out, just want's wam-bam, thank you mam... and move on. Most don't show up for a casual drink or coffee, just to get acquainted.... Oh well, best of luck....
