[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How much time is this taking?. Looking good is nice but if it takes away time from getting to know you as a person. Is it really worth it.

And no one wants to hear about your very special diet and the million things you can't eat.

Basically by middle age most people are looking for depth not just looks when it comes to long-term [/quote]

On a weekly basis I spend 5 hours at the gym, 2 hours at yoga, 4 hours on skincare and nails. [/quote]

How does yoga help you lookswise?[/quote]

Yoga helps maintaining a strong core. 5 hours in a gym is not a low. I spend 10/week (2-3 workouts) and also on a strict diet (only salad at night. no bread, sugars, alcohol). It take a great will to preserve body and looks after 40 for women[/quote]

It takes a lot for men too.

But the men don't talk about it. If they do, we'd roll our eyes. I recently brought to my DH's attention that most of the middle aged men around him are dyeing their hair and going to the gym daily. He did not even notice. He thought he was aging prematurely.

Men who dye their hair are weird.  [/quote]

My DH will pay you for this statement :-)

All the men over 45 in my family dye their hair. Even my uncle in his 70s dyes his hair. Lol Nothing too dark, so it does not necessarily stand out.

I want my DH to dye his beard like John Travolta. A medium brown beard and his bald head...DH thinks I am too vain.

I think a bit of grey hair looks nice. Too much of it makes you look terrible. George Clooney looks horrible these days. [/quote]

At what point is it okay to be your natural self?  (By the way, I agree with you that there are more men that dye their hair than I realized prepandemic).[/quote]

I don't know. I am not here to solve the world's problems. I am vain.

I like my bald DH best with a beard, a non- white beard. I will fight, bribe, plead and do whatever it takes to get him to color it.
