Bored As All Get Out
I turned 40 last month and everyone is saying oh your 40s will be exciting. Nope. I feel like each year that passes is even more boring than the previous year. And I don’t mean boring like I have nothing to do. I mean psychologically boring. I always have plenty to do. I want to know when life started to feel boring to you guys and what did you do to remedy it? I feel like I’ve experienced everything except marriage and children and no good on that front as I seemingly grow distant from men each year that passes as well. I’m becoming LESS of what they want.

That decade will be gone, then you are going to have to try in your 50's and that will be harder.
So yes your 40's can be great IF you make the effort.
If you were to travel somewhere for example there would be new experiences and opportunities. You know the rest.
Maybe start with the Titanic centres you will meet like-minded people.
mucho grande better than 50+ cos the fatigue starts to set in (at my age).
So, just do it hunn. Whatever it might be.
I can tell you this at age 51: it only gets worse.
I told my husband long ago, what we wanted were wishes, not wants. If they had mattered that much, we would have done them. Your life is a mountain of wishes. The wants not so much.
Ignore what society lays out as your path and choose the one you want. At the end,you will see how much of your life was what others told you were the path.
I get up every day and think..great..I am awake. Why?
Widowhood is the reward for a life of servitude. Now I answer to myself only. Enjoy your freedom. Make life what you want. Get a hobby. Take a trip. Build a house. And make up your mind..this is your life. And it is precious as you will see more and more as that light races closer.
Yes, at 40 you are getting old. I'm very much in your same situation and I don't like it one bit. The physical decline is starting to become noticeable. This is really bad.
you could always ask a man out....if you like him
regarding babies...you could aways adopt
by the way my advice is free and could be life changing
I was told by a man that I shouldn’t chase men. I did in the past and fell on my face quite a few times. It didn’t feel good. Now I know what it feels like when men get rejected by women. It feels quite terrible but I could ask a man out but then it doesn’t go anywhere. Had quite a few of those too. Then my mom said you could make yourself up a bit more to be more attractive. Men are visual. Yeah, I know. I’m working on it. I haven’t wanted to make myself up in years. That’s my fault. I guess right now I’m having fun when men know what I really look like on a daily basis. I don’t put makeup on like I do on my dating profile pics. One man couldn’t delete me faster when I sent him a real time pic of me lol. My mom said no Danielle you can’t send them a pic of you not made up in the beginning. They don’t know you well enough to see you that way. It’s crazy the way life has all these rules but I got a kick out of that. Like don’t they know women look night and day different without makeup? It scared him enough to delete me.
So I suppose the answer is that I have to be more proactive about living my life. I was when I was younger and I think that’s the difference. Thanks for helping me realize that everyone. My mom would say well duh. Life isn’t gonna come to you. Well it did when I was younger! What I fail to realize though that I was more proactive back then.
My mom uses the word “duh” at 70 years old lol. I love that.
Ozzie. I wouldn’t mind meeting you in real-time. You seem like a sincere down to earth dude from all the accumulated comments you have made on my blogments. I promise to be made up if we do.
Until next time, everyone.
