Shy, 65 am I too old for kink?

[CC****]

I'm trying to find my place in the world of kink etc. my biggest problem, shyness, I've been shy my whole life, extremely in my youth. Prevented me from outing, existing, discovering myself. I feel that I need to at least make an effort before it's really "too late". I want to...
I noticed in my youth some things that gave me a rush of sexual excitement, but the world was a different place then, not like now. Then they'd call you a pervert and a weirdo. And you'd believe it. I know now people will still do that always. But. Because of sites like Fet, I know now I'm not alone, and the main thing I've seen here the last month that I've been looking around is respect.
I feel uncomfortable putting this out here. Thanks everyone out there for making the world a much more interesting place. 🙏

I wanna say thank you for being open and saying this I think it takes guts to say this and being open and a lot of people I don’t like that but I appreciate it and keeping yourself 🫶🏼👏🏼

I'm glad you decided to give you the opportunity to explore, it's never too late
The experience of everyone is different but you made the first step, the most difficult, get out of the comfort zone it's the best thing I can say you.
Do the best you can and enjoy it

Not too old at all! Life is meant to be lived to it's fullest every day. Regardless of age!

[Na****]

I hope you find all the joy possible in your adventures 😊

Simple answer is no you're not too old. However as a person in the same age decade you may find it harder to convince someone to accept you as a kink partner. You've started your journey, my advice, stick with it and you never know, you only need that one person to click with your collective needs/desires. Best wishes

I think you’ve made the right and brave move by writing this. I’m in a similar space with confidence that shifts quite a bit when it comes to meets online. It’s been a long time since I actually met anyone on this site, particularly if you don’t live in a city. However exploring your fet on this particular site is exciting and you never know what may appear so wishing you lots of fun

@CCC2U and EVERY RESPONDENT: I too am 66, and as some Sirs have already stated, kudos to you for continuing the journey. DO NOT STOP TRYING UNTIL YOUR LAST BREATH SIR! Could you have posted this a few months ago, probably not! You’re getting there, albeit slowly, but you are not the right course… then there is your support…. Your wonderful brotherly support!

To the rest of you, @Dylanrrvtw, @Kinbaku_AQP, @LovinDom, @Gabriel2200, @edc88, @24funtimes, @BigNuttRayRay, @DevilWearsNada, @turret;
Every one of your replies was of support, of aid, of help and encouragement! I general, I dislike associating with men, they are pompous chauvinistic, degrading asses. Y’all treated @CCC2U with kindness, construction, and encouragement!!!

Thank you gentlemen, you are restoring my faith in humanity!

Start with the basics. You must feel safe. Have trust in yourself and your play partner. There must be no judgment!!

[sl****]

Wish I knew you 17 years ago. I would have helped you out. That's when I found out what I was into. No one called me weird or anything but I felt like they did behind my back. But it never got to me cuz I knew what I liked and wouldn't let no one change that

[Ka****]

Never too old for kink! I'm glad you're finally getting yourself out there
You don't wanna miss out on so many pleasing experiences!

[Deleted Member]

Never too late, explore, have fun be free!!!!

[CC****]

Wow wow wow,
So many incredible responses.
I'm overwhelmed with the support from everybody. I wish I had this kind of communication and contact when I was growing up as a young adult.
However, I won't dwell on the past and missed chances, I'll make my first move asap.
There is so much I don't know, so much I don't understand, such a variety of people and interests.
It's like going to a banquet with a cornu copia of every possible thing you could ever think of eating or drinking.
I'll walk slowly past everything and see what takes my fancy.
But for now, I'd like to thank everyone that has supported me and given me the energy and motivation to take the next step.
Love you all! 💓
PS I hope to respond personally later to you all.
But for now.... Let the journey begin. 🙏

Never too late

I’m 71 and still enjoy playing.

It really is about changing your perspective a bit, as much as I love the energy of twenty somethings, they have a problem bending to our years of experience and wisdom, it's sad really because I could love them past that in a kinky sort of way?

Never too old.  I remember in my early days in the UK scene, people set up under 35 munches/meet ups due to the majority of people at events being well over this age.   Well 30 odd years later these same people are in their 50's 60's and above.

I still respected the older people who gave me some really good advice as i took my first steps.  Something i wish more would do, remember these people have the experience.  Thsi advice saved my ass in those early days, the same advice i try and pass on to new people entering.

Never feel embarrassed to ask any questions or advice you may need.  No matter what age or experience you have.  It's the people who don't listen or think they shouldn't listen to those experienced from the past you need to worry about.

Get yourself to some of the closer Munche's convenient to yourself, you will be presently surprised at the age range.  A really nice no play way of meeting likeminded souls in the kink community and a really good way of gaining information and social contacts.

Nobody is to old for kinks

[Co****]

Never too old to ask for what you want.... No idea what that is, and Theres a lot to celebrate that I'm not into,but start asking, as a d-type or an s-type, you still only get what you want by asking

[Ja****]

Nope

[br****]

Lucky for you there's an entire genre of guys who love older women. I'd say shoot your shot and be surprised about how many gents reach out. Never too old for fun.

[kd****]

Never!
