Is it normal talking to older people makes me feel younger

I tend to gravitate to people who are, at the least, a couple years years older than me. I genuinely enjoy their company, but it a bonus is that makes me feel young.

    Most of my friends are older. I've lost sight of age at this point.

    Yes, perfectly normal and actually very good for you!!!
    Sounds like you have an appreciation and respect for those who have lived more years than you have.
    I am 63, yet, when I was much younger I loved spending my time speaking with and most especially listening to the stories that older folks would tell me. It gave me a real perspective on just how much, by their very stories, life can (and will) change over the years... and in hearing them, made it more normal for me to accept all the changes that I have seen and experienced over my own lifetime... it all feels far more normal and expected.
    I still love to spend time talking with those who are in their later years, most especially those who are in their 90's and above and listening to their life experiences... They make me feel like I am still just a kid... and, to THEM I am still just a kid...
    Feels good and is perfectly normal.
    Kudos to you!!!

    I feel this- I’m 23 and most of my same age friends grizzle about being “old” whilst at my job my closest-in-age colleague is 26 years older than me. One of the guys is 48 years my senior and it really puts my age into perspective.
