Always a good idea to look before speaking.
Then casual remarks can not be taken wrong.

oh yes, I forgot how casual it is to have zero tact in this day and age.

I think if I ever feel like posting in the 50 and over forum, I will do so. I felt very moved by what I read here, that is enough to entitle me to a reply. I could have gone into great detail, about how one of my fears is that as I age the things people found desirable about me in my former years, will ebb. But instead my reply encompassed how I feel about my fear. That it is depressing. And there you have it.

Age has taken it's toll on me just as it has with everyone else over 50, with only one exception. I took a hit with MS last October.

Prior to the hit, I was an inline and 400 meter oval ice speed skater. I was a director for a major communications company. Post hit, I "wall walk" in my house and have to use a cane outside. I had to give up my high powered job as a director and now I'm on disability.

The key to growing older and/or getting hit with some disease beyond your control is living each and every day to it's fullest. Appreciate EVERYTHING without exception. Don't feel sad about how you look or the things you can no longer do. Be happy with how you look and what can do NOW. Instead of focusing on your own losses, focus on others and making their world better. You won't have time to feel sorry for yourself.

Learn that with age and or disease comes beauty. See the women in your age group as more attractive, desireable and sexier than the women outside of it. Women over 50 are the best! Most of them know what it takes to make a successful relationship while most younger women are still learning. Personally, I'd much prefer to see women over 50 in ads or centerfolds because they really are more attractive and sexier.

If you dwell on what was, you'll never stop living in the past.

You are so right, dwelling on the past keeps you in the past. You have to live for the future.

I was depressed in my 40's about aging but now in my 50's my views are much different. And yes I like being intimate. I feel more free now than I ever did in the past.

Mass, thank you so much for clearing up your depression. You are more than welcome to post here anytime, as are all others.
I will bet that you will handle joining the older generation in the same manner you handle joining the younger generation. Happy ageing.flowerforyou flowerforyou indifferent

Actually, I'm very glad the internet and cell phones weren't around when I was younger.
I would have missed out on so much life. It's my addictive personality. I'd of gotten stuck here and life would have passed me by.
Not everything back then was instant. Like, hitch-hiking across the states and getting dropped off in the desert after deciding to go to San Diego instead of LA. The fear and anticipation was awesome. On a weekend, hopping freight trains just to see where I'd wind up.
The live concerts in Germany. Getting lost and having to survive a couple days up on Mount Pilchuck.
I don't regret the life I had. Do regret but, mostly learned from poor decisions I've made and the affect it had on others. Still, sometimes allow emotions to do my deciding rather than reason.
It would take most of the rest of my life to remember the adventures and experiences I wouldn't have had, if there had been internet.
It is a great thing to have as I age and slow down a bit. It's a great tool for looking stuff up and it gives those youngsters with no life, a way to put themselves out to the world without having to actually be involved in it. No risk, no danger and they can be as bold as their imagination.
