Title: Mid-life crisis is a myth
Post by: Skorp1o on December 15, 2014, 02:44:22 AM
Just men doing things they can afford to do now which they couldn't before. From sporty cars to expensive hobbies like diving...etc to young materialistic girls. It's the same young man with the same desires only now doing things he couldn't afford in his 20's.

I have said this repeatedly.


The goal is to be able to have a "mid life crisis" in your 20/30's. That means you are ahead of the curve.

yeah, roiduse is a myth to. "I did a cycle, have no problem, dude that sell me the stuff witch I have been knowing for 1 year doing fine. Side effect of steorids dosent excist!"....Something like that, things u cant see dosent excist right?

Since u have very bad eyes i recomend u to educate yourself to be a police officer, doctor, priest or psychologist (people that people go to when they have problems) and u will soon get a more clear view in your life and the society!

They might have to move the "mid life crisis" soon though, people are barely considered adults at 30 years of age. Generation nothingness sure has pushed the envelope for what is considered a childish age.

25 year olds acting and talking like 15 year olds. Shaking my head.

i just think alot of the stuff we see now with older guys"50" or so dressing younger and trying to feel and look young again is just them not coping with the aging process very well,something like whats happening to me now.i dont dress any different though then when i was 20 yrs old,always dressed the same way,it aint like i was dressing one way and then went 100% turn around and started dressing young again. i like to wear sweats alot, not all ripped up sweats or nothing like that but nice looking, even designer type of sweat hoodies like NIKE or ADIDAS.been wearing that style since the late 70's or so and just feels COMFORTABLE for me,i mean when i used to go out to clubs and dinners id wear a nice pair of dress pants and a nice dress shirt with some decent shoes,i wasnt no DAPPER DON :D but the stuff looked decent and mad me look presentable and nice enough to let the broads think i was a normal guy, and i was able to get some pussy before they realized i was some fucking lunatic thats got permanant brain damage and lifts weights and sticks needles in his ass.then goes and posts on some insane bodybuilding boards called GETBIG,all of that while driving a sports car(corvette) at 50yrs old and CRANKING AC/DC and VAN HALEN trying to look like a BEACH BOY STUD

I've seen one fella of age about 50, last weekend, in a night-meal place people come on weekends. He came at 3AM to order some snack and everyone was like "whoa". He was dressed fukkin ACE, you could see he's easily above 40, but the way he carried himself, his clothes, obviously in shape, obviously loaded, well it must be seen to understand. Some people just have it, regardless of age. It's all in the head.

This is one of the smartest posts I have read on here. I have read so much on here about mid life crisis. Even the thread going now about oldest person you know juicing. But Skorp is 100% spot on. I just turned 56 and 7 years ago I got an incredible promotion that over doubled my yearly salary. I just bought a new BMW hard drop top, I am able to do some other shit I have wanted to do and life is good. I would have done the same 20 years prior or 20 years later. As long as my body allows me to do certain things I will do them. If someone thinks I want to be young again, so be it. I wouldn't trade now for anything.

"mid-life crisis" is more feminist propaganda.  It was designed to publicly shame men who had achieved success and questioned the obligations of family and husbandry.  god forbid a man wakes up and decides to radically change his life   ::)

This crisis is a man at a certain point thinks FUCK IT.  Why am I saving all my money for retirement?  So I can be old and rich and sit on my ass all day shitting myself?  At a certain point you work your ass off to support wife, kids etc... and realize fuck them, what about me?

I will say that I have been worrying a lot about my age recently, I have been asking people if 26 is old, if 27 is old etc etc.


I feel that I should really want to settle down and start squirting out kids... I have no interest in it yet. I want to bang hot puss and live for me.

You feel a need for other people to tell you what to do?

How about developing your own "life-map"?
For some it's very difficult tho'.. that's why religion and other similar stuff is created.

No. It's called an "outside perspective", where did I state that I am asking people for advice, direction, or anything other than an opinion about an age bracket?

If someone is to ask their friend if white is kind of a feminine color for a car, does he feel a need for someone to tell him what to do?

I never though like that lol

I always had epic plans, Ibiza, Weekends away...etc which needed me to be single for a full impact. No regrets.

I had a long term relationship in my early 20's a controlling bitch too, wasted vital years, gave me a taster of what married life is like, not for me.

I don't know about women in your neck of the woods, but here they want their cake and want to eat it too.

They expect a man to be a man, earn good money and punch burglars in the face (in case of a break in) but other than that you must act like a castrated twat, be home after work, get permission before you go out, or they tell you don't have to, you're free to do as you please but act like complete c unts the next day in retaliation.

Put up with her friends over at my house drinking wine whilst I'm reduced to the bedroom, then hear them say "oh you're gona have beautiful babies" just cos of my Nesquick complexion and being a gullible moron for the last year and she's a Ginge doesn't mean I am here to racially experiment with babies for your own amusement you daft twats. Get out of my house you chubby herd of feminist imbeciles and take that Ginger bint with you, I'm gona inject 1g of test and then I'm off to Ibiza on my own to wash off the miserabilia you rubbed off on me.

I get that, but all this stuff really boils down to the woman and the evolution of the relationship you're in.  For instance - I do this part:

But for this:

I'm home because I want  to be, act like my normal self, and don't need permission to go out.  Like I said, it really depends on the woman.  But also,  I don't begrudge anyone who's not doing things this way - to each his own.  Only point I'm making is it's not cut and dry like some say it is.

I have many friends in happy relationships, I was unlucky twice, a lot of women out there treat men like a commodity. If you have a well balanced life then all good for you, but take it from me, what you have going on is not in the majority of cases. Albeit not that uncommon either.

I have a GF right now, but we don't fully live together I'm working on it.

Over the years I developed a need for time alone, if I share space with someone for prolonged periods of times I get distressed, and then need a day or two or complete alone time to recover.

It's good that you recognize that.  If the girl you're with is right for you in the long run, she'll understand too, and be confident and secure enough to let it happen.  Or maybe your need for that will dissipate.

Buying shit or doing shit...etc is not a blanket fits all. Some people come from nothing become millionaires and don't change their life style in the slightest. wear same old t-shirts and live in same old apartment. I don't care what people do as long that you live within your means. I see guys in Marbella on 50k a year buying bottles on credit cards and wearing what clearly looks like a fake Hublot, that's someone punching above their weight.

This gets more serious over time. I'm the same. I "kind of live" together with my gf, but it's vital to escape to my own place I have (I haven't offered to instantly live at my place on purpose, as where the hell would I go for "time alone", a hotel?) periodically. SOme people can't stand being alone for a prolonged time and I feel a big pleasure doing that. Good music, good read, a glass of wine, internet and the world stops existing.
