What do you all think of 45-50 (never married/no kids )year old guys acting like they are.......

CONFORM OR BE CAST OUT!!!

Wiser words were never spoken.

Pretty wise here too.

Ha ha. Only people agreeing with OP are them old jealous bitches.

Ha ha.
Although women acting young is considered liberating and empowering for women, but men behaving similar are considered losers. WTF?

Only people agreeing with OP are them old jealous bitches, which the OP is.

..damn triple post.. Sorry mods.

the older you get the easier it becomes to get women.

nough said

Very true. I suspected the OP is a woman.

Women get very catty when they see guys who are 40-50 years old with younger women.

I know when I hit 40 I started getting more and more attention from women, my age and younger.. Just how it goes.

Girls peak at 17-28, then it's down the water-slide.

It appears the basic premise of this thread is that people are deathly afraid of being alone. OK, well, MOST people. Others seem comfortable within their own skins and being single.

A former male relative decided to go 'hip' when his wife died at the age of 61. He was 59 at the time. OMG, it was so embarrassing when he brought out his latest fling of which he announced that just because he was older, didn't preclude him from having sex, LOTS of it.

He died a lonely old man of alcohol-induced dementia at the age of 81. The 'hot' women left him after they realized they weren't going to get any money or status from being associated with him in spite of him claiming he had lots of moneys (and never needed to take Viagra). Actually, in the end, he had incredible debt (reverse mortgages - don't do it).

In cases like these, I call it looking for love in all the wrong places. Get to know yourself - do not do something stupid out of desperation for sex or companionship. It is not worth the pain and sorrow.

OP I know several dudes that totally fit the description you outlined. I can tell you from personal conversations that they go back and forth between the whole mentality of "i love my freedom, blah, blah, blah" to "damn, i'm lonely, my kids are grown and i have nobody."

I got married in my mid twenties (35 now) and it was the best decision I ever made. My wife and I have an awesome relationship.

It's good that you are having this conversation with yourself. You are the only one that can decide though.

Good luck!

hey

Whats "ballin"?

And why do you care? Are they taking all the ladies from you?

And if so, go and make a move sooner.

No one gives a fuck about how old you are anymore. A 50 year old guy could (has recently) marry a 16 year old girl so long as he is good to her.

Right on! We're pretty much in the same mindset. I farm but get those same odd looks when I show up at the COOPs in snake boots, cargo shorts and tshirt or hawaiian shirt - I mean, it' hot as hell in Alabama in the field and I just prefer shorts unless I am crawling through briars or doing something where more protection is better. I rock out instead of listen to Country, have a degree and have seen much more of the world than most of the locals who've hardly seen outside their own state.

I get just as dirty on the farm as any of my fellow farmers and I cut and mill my own lumber and build all my own structures on the land. And fishing in jeans?? Hell no. I just prefer to dress and act like myself than to "dress and act the part" of the stereotype most folks perceive as the farmer/cowboy.

I don't look down on my fellow farmers for how they dress and although they chuckled and gave strange looks at first, they now recognize me, know I'm working the land and am my own man in who I am. It's all good and if I bring a smile to a face or make someone chuckle or stop and think, all the better!

What has been fun to watch is I'm seeing more folks picking up on my style and mode of dress and attitude. I'm in my 40's but because I'm not the stereotype, some of the younger crowd think I'm pretty "cool" I guess and that has helped them see farming in a different light.

Keep on keeping on!
-Peace and best of days to you and your herd!

I'm 35. I've never considered marriage, ever. In fact, I am in the process of discerning a vocation to the priesthood.

Some people get married, some don't. Some people have kids, some don't, some can't. Some people become monks, some people become terrorists. Some people judge others on how they live, some don't.

Is someone a lil mad, about grandads get hotties? Sorry but kinda sound like a hater!!!! Maybe u should give it a try, maybe not today but one day you will have ur mid life crisis. Lmao

pmsl

It is my firm assessment that humankind should "go fourth and be plentiful". Have as many kids as possible. This however, is contrary to both the liberal's "do what thou wilt" and Christian conservative's "family values". Both are a form of eugenics.

The restrictions on sexuality by the conservatives prevent pregnancy by shaming people into not having sex in the first place, or preventing polygamous relationships to impregnate multiple women at once. We only worry about teenage pregnancy because we act like age somehow makes you magically more responsible. When in reality we just give a whole lot less of a shit about the plight's of older people. If older people can't have a career and parent kids at the same time, "OH WELL"... but we pretend to care when they're young and have "their whole life ahead of them". What a load of crap. A life of servitude toward the machine. One way or another...

Liberals are even worse. Their advocating of sexual deviance of all sorts perverts people's minds to the point of they're blithering idiots, and totalitarian dolts. There's a reason ancient empires were both cruel and hyper sexualized. In between the lion pits and crucifixions, they liked playing with little boy's pee-pees. It's part of that mindset. Homosexuality and fascism go hand in hand. A talk with any neo-Nazi will prove it.


Sex not resulting in somebody, somewhere, getting pregnant... is destructive. Pure and simple. I think "love and romance" is detrimental to the human psyche and to our collective species just as homosexuality and sex purely for pleasure. Maybe not "as" destructive, but still pretty bad.

My biggest regret is probably not taking advantage of women more in my past, and getting them knocked up. Spreading my genes, and possibly changing the future of humanity. (Though it's a shame I wouldn't live long enough or have the clarity to see the full implications of my seed pollenating that many uterus) If men can avoid their child support, guilt, shame, and obligations as a parent, then good for them. In fact, I'd go as far to say "family" is a sham too. Nothing but another conditioning tool, to get you used to obeying an abstract authority. Somehow just because you came out of your mother's vagina, you owe it to her to obey her, and treat her with respect. What was the alternative? She abort you? Murder or enslavement. Boy does that sound familiar...

I say let child services take my kids. I don't necessarily think the system as it is now is optimal for raising our young. But certainly I'd rather they exist under the cold, neutral hands of the state. Where they learn the important things like math, language, art, science... but none of that contrived shit like "discipline".

Nespotism is fine, but it should make sense. Not based off family persay, but off of people who have shown you an equal amount of devotion. If people are willing to lie for you and cover your ass, the only moral option is for you to do the same for them. (Though not necessarily the most rational option. As people are pretty hung up on "feelings". You can abuse and betray people, and they'll still look out for you like a fricking lost puppy. It's pathetic, but it's the way it is... However, I believe in metaphysics, and that morality takes on a physical shape.)

LOL why do you care? unless one is bothering you, they're free to do what they want.

I can't seem to edit my post... I was going to add that about the old man himself, I am not surprised by his actions.

I don't agree with it, I'm just saying it's not shocking at all. Given the modern state of manhood. The ridiculous standards to uphold. Being strong... yet sensitive. Understanding, yet dedicated. Men can't show emotion, can't show weakness, can't argue, can't do anything. Men are to always let women be right, but also somehow magically take the lead.

They're always presumed to be rapists, violent criminals, or just "creepy", and are to take women's abuses, insults, and slander with a smile. Not saying women don't have troubles. I could go on all day about how women are impulsive creatures. Trying to juggle the competing demands of their biological nature and social expectations. Unrealistic standards of beauty, motherhood, and social role.

Both are docile and self-loathing morons. In different ways of course... accepting this topsy-turvy world, where they somehow have to be intelligent, polite, successful, clean, articulated, well mannered... and just what the fuck do they get out of it? Nothing. Not a damn thing, and then they expect us to just take it when shit happens.

Scrub men who are fifty and still "living the bachelor life" are just surviving the only way they know how. Free from the chains of social oppression. (To some extent...) It's faulty, but then it's the best they can do given their preconditioning.

I've come to enjoy breaking out of people's stereotyping. I get very strange reactions. Entertaining for me. I'm a blonde female, and not that I care, because looks are just luck, but have been told I'm very beautiful. Then they ask what I do: I farm, drive a tractor, "process" chickens. I also have a physics degree (people assume blondes aren't serious thinkers), but prefer hard labor over an office or lab (I don't have nails to chip). A few nights a month I play electric guitar, sing and play some sax (not folk acoustic as they ask) in a rock band.
Then they assume I'm a liberal because I'm a musician and have long curly hair and mostly wear jeans and t-shirts. I'm a rationalist, not dem or repub, not teaparty or libertarian. I don't believe I global warming ( it has happened before in time, pre industrialization), but want strict controls on emissions and Monsanto in jail, I hunt and kill/eat animals, but I'm 90% on raw foods, lower taxes but don't support offensive "wars" like we have going on..........I think that since the internet (mostly) and tv are wide spread, more people are seeing the multitude of lifestyles and living that are possible and going for it in life, just being and doing what fancies them. More people will enjoy being a diverse being, not a simple stereotypable type of human.
Cheers!

Hilarious....its quite acceptable for gays to suck the cum out of a mans arse but middle aged men can't live life to the full...get a grip you twat.

You could have phrased it better but all in all very good point.

I'd have to agree with that.

i think you complain too much

I say, to each his own. If he isn't breaking any laws or being deceitful to anyone, let him live his life. It's his.

I'd love to meet you, what state do you live in?

Good luck. With marriage dwindling, and less people having kids, you'll be competing with an awful lot of younger guys than your 50 yr old ass (if you are that guy someday). You're making an assumption that won't pan out for you, as women in their 20s prefer younger guys (20-30). Sorry but that's a fact.

Not true at ALL.
