    sounds great. I was nervous to try online dating as a gay man in a smaller city, but this site https://www.buddygays.com/senior-gay-dating.html made it so easy. I loved how open and diverse the community felt—there’s no pressure to fit into any specific mold. I connected with guys who actually shared my interests, which was refreshing. The profile setup helped me express who I was beyond just a photo. After a few weeks, I met someone I really click with. Honestly, I wish I’d signed up sooner.
