There have been a number of posts recently about “getting old” and I would like to add my personal comments, which may not apply to everyone.
I would NEVER, admit to my age on AB and certainly NEVER to strangers and I NEVER celebrate my birthday with either cards , presents or a party.
Who really cares how old sqad, carlton, Mcmouse, docspok askyour gran ect are and what is the point of celebrating another year bringing one closer to one´s death?
There are no advantages at all, to becoming old, however I have seen younger and healthier septuagenarians than some 50 year olds (usually die to smoking)
You still look with lust at younger women and they look at you with abhorrence, one thread last weak even suggested that you were a “pervert” should you peruse the younger female form.
Nobody is interested in your opinions describing them as “here he goes again, better in our days” or more commonly on AB as “looking through rose coloured specatacles.
I think Sqad is entitled to post his opinions - whether others think he is a miserable git or not . Thats what makes the world go around - everybody having different opinions.
Sorry sqad..my apologies to you.......just got in and logged in and did'nt read full posts....only Carlton's last reply.......my fault.......i'm off to the naughty step for a bit :0)
Sqad, I'd just like to say that if you were called a pervert I doubt it has anything to do with your age - you do have a habit of viewing women as pieces of meat (albeit meat wearing satin blouses, expensive underwear and gallons of perfume) who are only there for your personal delectation.
