I didn't get any answers in gender and womens' studies?

Question

My boyfriend and I had a big fight last night with me coming back home after a big fight. He has told me that I am old and he's tired of me. He wants to start a family with a girl in her 20s. I said well gfeffin luck buddy and came back home. I just do not know how to feel better about myself. I have posed a question before about feeling crummy about getting older. I am 51 and it seems to me that society only likes young people or older people who have position and money, and I have neither. I feel so lonely, I feel like he was all I had. I have posed a question before about getting older, I just feel very depressed about it. Nobody likes people my age it seems.

Answer 1

I want to hug you x x x What a t*at your boyfriend is!!! better off without him is what i think and as for thinking that society only likes the young and old (with money etc)....rubbish!! I don't care how old you are, i'll be your friend x

Answer 2

Be happy he's gone. Nobody needs that c**p.Go and do whatever your interests are and find someone there you can share experiences with. I found my wife to be at college in geology class and we have been together over 30 years.

Answer 3

I am 54. It is difficult getting older. And no matter what age anyone is........there is always the chance your BF or husband turns out to be a rude, self-centered  butt hole.

So, like the other answers said- let him go and you are better without him.

Now Darling........lets look at this aging thing together.

1. Theres nothing we can do to prevent the biological act.

2. We can take care of ourselves by pampering and becoming more healthly.

3. Money doesnt buy happiness, although it makes life easier sometimes.

4. You wouldn't want anyone that only liked you for money anyways.....

5. I want you to fix yourself up as pretty as you can tonight and dance around the house. Stop to look in the mirror and hold a lil' chat with yourself (your heart) Before you know it you will see the "girl" in you come out.

I bet she is fun and cute and sweet.

6. Could you consider taking some classes? Dance, art etc?

7. I want you to forget about all those people that are superfacial and judge on age or looks or money, and try to make new relationships.

8. Remember, we may have some hand in how others react to us............people, young or older enjoy being around people that are positive and fun. Why dont you plan some kind of get-together party and be as positive, charming and fun as you can????

9. SERVE others.........you will see your inner beauty if you help others. Find some organization where you can volunteer and you will feel good inside.

Thats all my love that I can help you with.............except HAVE A GOOD SENSE OF HUMOR!

The other day I was feeling sick and i fell asleep, when i woke up and looked in the mirror....i didnt look cute, i looked sick....but i smiled and pointed my finger at the mirror and said "well hello pretty pukey face"!!!! I laughed at myself and i felt better............

Good luck and God bless!
