Was discussing this topic with a workmate lady night.

 

So do you know people who want to be old or act old 

 

He was saying he is giving some friends away now he has turned 65 and they are of a similar age but do nothing but complain. about life or their greatest talks to him are about their grandchildren receiving awards and they all look old some even 60's with grey hair looking wanting to be a grandfather look.

 

He on the other hand 60's doing powerlifting and going to Thailand and wants to be.....forever young ...I want to be ...forever young .

 

Some driving mobility scooters ,can't walk up Hills , etc 

 

Want to be old it seems

I appreciate  people love their grandchildren  and enjoyed their holidays but I wish they would refrain from bringing out their photo albums of both in the belief I can enjoy them as much as they do.

 

I can't.  I can never feel the way they do about them so please treasure them for themselves and I promise not to show them pictures or videos of our soi dog puppies or vegetable  garden.

I have a Asian Australian friend known him for years but lately he was visiting me same age as me 60's but balding grey hair with a frail look , wearing a cardigan with tailored shorts and long socks

 

He showed me pictures of his grandkids ,daughters etc ,he wants to be a family man ,a grand dad ,he wants to look the part ,old frail grey .

 

I told him he looks old because he wants to be 

Having a younger girlfriend here will make guys younger, but on the subject of walking, a lot of people on Buakhao struggle with walking, probably a lifetime of a bad diet

If you really want to remain young, then why don't you start dancing?

 

 

 

 

I've heard they even have activities for retirees like wife swapping.

 

 

Hmm....are you saying the old guys in Pattaya look and act younger than their age?

Nope,  one can pay for and have sex at any age.

Breaking what, your leg?

I guess part of being or acting old is letting the younger guys compete with each other and laying back watching the show. I understand that part.

When old guy think others must think that they are younger because they exercise and dress and behave that way, that is often sad. Because those want to be younger guys don't fool anybody. It is obvious that they are not young.

I think we all should accept reality. That's bests for everyone.

But not should you want to act old .

I'm seeing more & more guys in their 60's even younger riding mobility scooters

FFS get off to the gym and stop drinking alcohol

True. An old whitie I know takes Millenials out to eat, so he can be listened to. Like 2K a head for sushi.

 

Call it 400 baht for a big roll. That's enormous amount of sushi consumed, even tossing in a 400. baht small bottle of sake apiece.

 

We're in the realm of ringing the bell in a Pattaya bar, but with even less to show for it.

I don't use a mobility scooter and I don't plan to use one anytime soon. But I ride a motorcycle, and often enough for distances which I could walk. I don't walk, because I am too lazy to walk, and the bike is ready to go.

Personally I understand that it's nice to be fit. But at what cost? I was in a gym before, even a nice expensive one. I didn't like it. I don't like using these machines. And I also don't like running outside in the heat. So I am not so fit...

And about drinking alcohol: if guys like to drink a beer or whatever, and maybe play with the girls, why not? It's how they want to live their life - at least at that moment. If I had the choice between an hour in the gym or an hour drinking beer I wouldn't have to think for too long.

I thought trouble walking would be related to too much beer and or too much boom boom

My uncle is in his mid 80's and moved to Florida several years ago.

 

He tells me the older you get men are increasingly in short supply, and he's getting more sex than he's ever had.

 

Little too much info than I wanted from a close family member, but also good to know....Boys don't die young!

Maybe it's just about getting to a point in your life where it's just 'Fu##k It'

 

I used to be gym rat in my younger days, always ate right etc.

 

But i think when I crossed the 60 barrier it was, who cares!

 

I'm still pretty fit, but I eat what I want in moderation, not a coach potato and am just comfortable in my own aging skin

 

It's the male version of women and hair dye.

 

I read an article about the mega business of women's hair dye, but it concluded exactly the same, around 60 women go, "ahh fu##k it'

Correct, I'm a c@nt.

Thailand is a good place for the elderly because of the general cultural respect for age and wisdom. It is not a barrier here. Not having moey is probably the only real barrier in Thailand.

 

In my view, most western cultures/countries are for the young. There is a place for the elderly, but it is generally out of sight/out of mind.
