That's not in the options. scold

My question is: If you are over 40 years old and you were never married and have no kids do you consider yourself to be a loser or a winner?

Life, job, career, family ... isn't that what everyone wants? If you have reached a particular age and you do not have these things are u a loser?

Not everyone wants those things.Regardless of what age I was at the time and if I didn't or wasn't able to have certain things no I wouldn't view myself as being a loser or anyone else for that matter.

If someone desperately wanted it all, partner, family, fame and success, by 40, they would feel they were a loser if they didn't have it.

The trick is to work out what you really want (not what you think you should want) and go after it. Age has nothing to do with it, and no-one is a loser until they give up.

I changed my entire life 2 years ago. Winner? Loser? Not a clue. Happy? Oh yes.

I'd say less accomplished or less able. You're not really supposed to call a loser a loser anymore which was actually quite a winning move by the losers.

What a ridiculous question.

Winners? Losers?

Differing circumstances for each and every one determines whether they are single after 40, determines whether they have children at all. It does not makes them a loser or a winner. Dispense with the labels.

You are very young. You have a lot to learn.

I agree. wine

I could have been married before the age of 25 and I think it's often easier to just go along with what friends and others do than to walk away (it was hard to walk away btw.)

I do have a very different life these days than the one I would have if I married and had kids. I have accomplished things I never thought I would and have a life I enjoy. Looking at a lot of people who are / were married and have kids, I wouldn't want to swap. conversing

Depends on what ur standards are...
What do you want from life and are willing to get... and even so... it´s quite basic to put ppl on those two categories...Loser or Winner... because simply it´s very subjective...
For that you need to compare yourself with someone else...and how do you measure those parameters...
People looking to put others down, claiming to be better than others, are IMO- not enough self-assured.

Some people want a family or career success, or kids,or may be not, or to be free - I personally give this last subject lots of importance...- So how do you define a category?

It´s nothing but an individual option ...or a circumstance, simply doesn´t define you.

Thanks for the clarification, Beav.
The best year were zero to kindergarten, then 35 onward.
There are no winners and losers, but there are people who give up on life, and those who don't. professor

Even when life is frustrated it sure beats being on the wrong side of the grass comfort

Who said that?

I said

Meaning that labeling people as looser or winner is simply....STUPID.

So I dont think shes a looser or whatsoever. I dont even know her!

Single after 40? Good question! Loser/Winner? Bad choices.

I'm recently divorced and now a single 41yo with no children. I don't claim loser or winner, but smarter. I learned a lot from my marriage and divorce. I will move on in pursuit of my happiness.

Interesting? I looked at you profile LilBeaver. You ask a question about life after 40, but your profile doesn't allow anyone older than 24 to respond. Also it say your only interested in men from South America? How comes? Check your settings.
