I have no idea why this innocent question would get under someone's skin. What am I missing?
Because most questions of this sort are posed by people who at the youngest end of the spectrum...who seem to be trying to avoid "older" people.

I apologize.

Welcome to you. You will fit in well in any village, just as most people do. The commonality we have is that we have lived and learned and were happy and sad by turns for about five decades,or more.... We have met a lot of people along the way, and accomplished a lot and have many stories to share and many, like me like to hear them..

I am sorry I acted like a mean person.

My Sweetie and I are both 72. He is far nicer.
