Then why don’t ALL celebrities look as good as J Lo when they hit 56?
I mean look at Madonna, she used to be so beautiful when she was younger.
And she hasn’t been pretty for decades.
Mariah Carey looks bloated most of the time ➕ Gwen Stefani’s face looks like an ad for extreme plastic surgery.
People can be attractive and fit after the age of fifty > but they need good genetics to pull it off.
However, even wealthy people with the best genes are still old at 50, regardless of their appearance. If they already have grandkids, they're in a lifestage that no one without grandkids wants to be a part of. Because that's just old. And people don't want to be old before their time.

No. Most women are not having a lot of sex when they are young. They are certainly not going to suddenly start having sex after menopause.
Remember women in relationships alway exaggerate the amount of sex they are having- once a week= once a month, once a month = once every 6 months, etc.

OMFG WHO CARES
You will all end up taking a dirt nap anyway. Every one of you. Ironically the younger you are the more you should worry about dying young of cancer, since that’s the trend these days.

I look great, but OP 55 IS old. I know it and I don’t care. I have neighbors in their 39s that invite us out all of the time- my sons are actually closer in age to them at 20 than we are.
Who cares? No need to prove any point.
+1. Time moves a lot faster after 50. You will look a lot different from 50-59
Not ALL

Haven’t read any responses yet but I’m 48 and I agree. The problem is that most Americans are in terrible health, overweight, don’t put effort into their appearance by 45 or so, so imagining them in a romantic relationship is gross.

This should have been addressed before this age. And degrees aren’t what they used to be.

If I divorce my husband, I want to live alone or in a commune with women for a long time.
Men only for occasional boning and manual labor.

I know I am old and I am a-okay w/it.
Sure it sucks having to color my hair every 2 wks and my mid-section looks a little thicker than I would like.
Also I recently lost an infected tooth so I miss my youthful smile too.
But there are definite pluses to being old(er.)
My kids are grown and have their own lives now in their 30’s.
I no longer have to support them so now I spend $ on myself more.
I am no longer tied down w/minor children…..I have much more freedom to socialize, partake in my hobbies, ETC.
Most of all is a self-acceptance that I never had in my youth.
And best of all now > when I speak, 🗣️ people actually listen to me and take me seriously which they never did in my younger years……
Same. I did luck out though. I only need to color my hair every 6-7 weeks. I still have almost no gray. Thanks dad!

It all depends on the person. Many examples of two people roughly the same age, one looks great and the other one looks old and broken.
Very true. I am 42 and younger men tell me I don't look a day over 21. My mother also is 65 and has no wrinkles. So i get away with dating younger men and I often look younger than those younger men as well
They sense your desperation and want to bang you because you’re an easy target.
There is no way you look 21.

Since you talked about yourself being pretty multiple times within 5 sentences, I’d say you care very much. You just don’t think it’s affecting you.

I think there is only ONE celebrity that looks better in her fifties than she did in her twenties and that celebrity is Jennifer Lopez.
Bar none - - no exceptions.
And before people tell me that celebrities are rich & can afford cosmetic surgery, Botox, fillers, personal trainers, stylists, etc…..
Then why don’t ALL celebrities look as good as J Lo when they hit 56?
I mean look at Madonna, she used to be so beautiful when she was younger.
And she hasn’t been pretty for decades.
Mariah Carey looks bloated most of the time ➕ Gwen Stefani’s face looks like an ad for extreme plastic surgery.
People can be attractive and fit after the age of fifty > but they need good genetics to pull it off.
