    I've been using this dating site, I've noticed the following, I will have older people e.g. 40s, 50s and 60s messaging me expressing their interest in me I even had one guy who even gave me his number in his first message but I'll decline the older guys and chase after the younger ones like me. As for the younger ones I've noticed how for whatever reason they'll lack interest in me, perhaps they're already preoccupied with someone else or failed to make a good first impression. Also younger ones tend to be fickle, saying they're gay only to end up saying I was curious I'm not gay anymore or whatever and they are less stable and more likely to breakup. So putting all of this together, I'm prompted to think that maybe I should give the older guys a second thought? I worry that if the person turns out OK people would think that I'm hanging out with a pedo.

    You are a good observer!
    "Older guys" are less in demand, especially if they like to connect with much younger guys. That's why you are getting lots of attention. Simple market rules.

    Conversely, younger dudes are in greater demand by their own peer group+by the older guys. Being in demand allows people to show how capricious they can be. Today, they are interested, and tomorrow, they are not. And besides, this other guy who just sent in his pix has a better, more defined six-pack!

    Judging by your post, the "older guys" are clearly your second choice. So far, you have not connected to your peer group, so you are looking into other alternatives. Do you find "older guys" attractive? Can you imagine developing any kind of relationship with them? Or are you considering them your only other, viable alternative?

    You won't get very far in life if you keep on considering what other people may think about you, and the people you are privately hanging out with. Remember that "poor is the man whose pleasures depend upon the permission of the others."

    Humanity has a very nasty habit of being very critical when it comes to a cost-free criticism of the others. You want to take that kind of criticism with a very big lump of salt.

    I've noticed that a lot of youngsters in their 20s like myself are into stuff like clubbing, partying and the like but I've never really been into that sort of stuff in a way I'm like an alien amongst my peer group and more like the older people which is rather ironic
