Same. Any more and just about anyone you know and can relate to is dead. And I have kids and perhaps they’ll have kids, but when I’m 90 and all my friends are dead, and anyone I looked to in life for guidance is dead, and I can’t commiserate with people about the old days of the Internet or what things used to be like without hearing “oh grandpa,” what really is the point?
That’s actually why being open to having a “roommate” when your old makes more sense. Don’t need physical anymore just the emotional. But I dk I’ll see when I get there.
I’m straight, 70 to 80 years is enough

Things might be different in 50 years if I have a robot body I reckon 90 won’t be so bad.
You could try being gay for 40 years more then
There gets to be a point for most of us where we go from “sexual preference” to “meh.” Sex drives tend to evaporate eventually.

I’m not so sure this is true - retirement communities are one of the biggest hotbeds of STIs
I was referring to the if you’re not going for physical does being straight or gay matter?
