The Middlemen

At my age, I know of enough men going through a mid-life crisis and enough wives of such men trying to put up with as much nonsense possible.

For such afflicted men and their tortured wives, I stumbled upon a website named www.midlife-men.com

I know of one wife who subcribed to the newsletter of this site in her hubby's email address. What needs to be known is whether he opens these emails and goes through them and whether he at all will admit he is going through such a crisis in the first place!

One has perhaps heard the proverb: 'You can take the horse (or the donkey??, I forget) to the water but you cannot make him drink'....Sigh!

Mark my word- The 'donkeys' will never admit that they're going through a major mid life crisis.

Mid life crisis is not something that only men experience. Women have had their mood swings and hot flashes.

Aging should be something anticipated with excitement, not something to dread. Have fun and say goodbye to burdensome responsiblities and obligations once in a while. That is the motto to follow for any one going through mid life.

I somehow feel most readers of this post have missed the point. My take was only on the behavioural aspect of men---a mental problem, while most comments are on the physiological aspects..While it is common knowledge that middle age is accompanied by physical changes, it happens to everyone. I was only talking about some men who cannot handle the phenomenon mentally!

Men are morons at every stage of their lives be it youth, middle age or old age.They don't get wiser with age; only more 'moron'ish and self opinionated.
