I felt like they really did like me and if they found it weird they never said anything. I just find talking to older people a lot easier. Even at work I’d talk to the older coworkers mainly and I’d get frustrated by the people my own age who did nothing but make jokes behind peoples back and talk about substances. But now when I go back to work it may be completely the other way around.

One of my best friends is in her late 70s. I'm in my early 40s, I met her in my mid 30s. People in their 3rd quarter of life can be vivacious, fun, and hilarious sense of humor. They also have a lot of knowledge. (And my friend can drink me under the table.)
I'm sure your friends who are older really do like you.
