If you're 60 or older, come join me. Let's talk, hang out, tease and support each other.

I for one won't dye the grey (or in my case whites) out of my hair,i'm actually looking forward to getting grey.

I like hanging out with the older crowd.I'm 47 but most of my friends are in their 50s,60s on up.Sometings i'm in owe at what they can teach me.But i've always loved being around people who were much older than me.I have witness to that some young people are wanting to hang around me more these days...maybe because i'm still young at heart *shrugs*..i don't know,i've always felt older,even at 10 years old when at that age i'd hang out with the older teenagers.

With most of my older friends its usually me and them talking over coffee or shopping.There's no sex or trying to get them to marry me *snort* although there are a few i'd gladly drop everything i'm doing and run to their home for a quick roll in the hay...older people can sometimes be sexy as hell.

But thats my take...

Hi everyone, nice to know this thread is still around, I hope you a doing well.
Grey hair is something I had had since I was 19, as for dyeing it.. no way what ever it is it will be.
Question for some comment if you please. Last week I had a situation come up at the pool hall with someone I played against from another team. from the start of play he was harassing me, it started mildly but annoyingly but I simply ignored him it became worse as the game went on, I gave him the look from hell and just went on with the game. The captains of both teams never said a word (my two captains and co captains wernt there cause of a family emergency) I have since told them about it and they were pissed and were going to do something about it. I truly wanted to give him a peace of my mind but kept my cool cause If anything got started it would be a mess. If I had been 20 years younger it may well have been a different ending...I hate it when age comes to play I feel I did right but feel like a simpleton for not doing more.

Oh I so agree, I have always been drawn to older people in most situations/interactions to be honest. Most of my friends are older. I am just 50, my honey will soon be 58, I find that incredibly sexy if I`m honest....oddly she has a very young, playful way about her, I am more of the serious one but at times she gets very `grown up`...I enjoy and often need that aspect of her. I love her how her hair is greying and as she is as butch as butch can be I think she looks more and more handsome as her face ages. ..OK I`ll shut up about her now !!

I`m sorry that happened to you. I can understand how it made you feel but I think they were the simpletons not you. Sounds like you held your cool and walked away from it all with dignity. i`m sure some time from now when they have `grown up`..{we live in hope}....they will look back and think they behaved like jerks.

Thanks Daisy, I know I did the right thing by not falling to the jerks small minded ways but sometimes I often wonder how people can go through life with such a bad attitude then call yourself human. Tonight I was ask why I didn't say any more that I did to him...simple you cant fix people like that it's best to just stay away from them.

Much respect to you Rockin for choosing your battles wisely. People say wisdom comes with age, well for some of us.
As for silver hair, at 63 I thought I'd have more...still, dig the silver that rides my temples.
Glad to see this thread is up and running again.

Best, Greco

For the longest time I have become so board with things as they are that I have started job hunting for a part timer. I gave it a go at doing volunteer work that was fine till the real workers started putting nearly all there work on the volunteers that they had so I just wasn't going to bust ass doing the job someone was getting paid to do so I gave it up.
It's not that I sit hear all day cause I play on three pool teams three nights a week, it's that I don't do board dome for long to start with. All I can say is I hope if I do find something I find something that I enjoy doing. I have a list of what I won't do and the jobs I think would do for me, one is hopefully going back to work as a Chef is a lot of fun for me, I know its work in a pro kitchen but it never was anything that I have any issues with no matter how fast pace it was or what was going on nor the times that 8 hours drug on for ever that I went to polishing silver where to pas the time, It's all in how you look at what ever you have going on....so hear I go charging into the big world to see what out there to do.

I wish wisdom had come a lot sooner I could have saved myself lots of B.S. in life. Ya know the ,if I knew then what I know now things would have been way better, I guess that what getting to this age is good for.

Yep Grec; What's that old saying? Walk quietly and carry a big cue stick. Believe me, this old boy will still deck anyone who crosses that line though.
