Is it weird that I (M27) am pretty good online friends with an M41? - eviltoast

We met like four years ago and have gotten to know each other since then. We talk about our lives, work, struggles, relationships, video games, music, et cetera. Sometimes, though, I feel like this friendship shouldn’t exist because people may find it strange that I am friends with someone 14 years older than me. What do you think?

    The only weird thing about it is:

    I feel like this friendship shouldn’t exist because people may find it strange that I am friends with someone 14 years older than me

    Are you really considering a friendship based on what others think? Not only that. I’d understand, if others said it was a bad influence. But you’re concerned other may find it strange??

    Sounds like you have a good friend. Keep it that way no matter that others say. Seriously. The biggest mistake you can make, is trying to be normal. You will always fail
