Pretty damn close. On the positive, I would add travel to see the beauty everywhere.
I would add my deep negative worries:
-Financial meltdown worries
-The country is falling apart. Bad. Whether you like team Trump or not, I don't think it can be fixed. Too far gone. Grandkids are growing up in an amoral world.
For me it's feast or famine. From October through January I dated a much younger woman and it was multiple times a week.
We're no longer dating and it's never.
I don't do casual sex. As I've gotten older I need to have a connection with the woman.
A serious connection- good friends or currently/previously dating.
As far as the list overall- I agree.
You learn that you can't take the people you love for granted.
The same goes for fitness- it takes more to stay fit/healthy as you age.
64 yr old here. Bodybuilder/muscle builder working out everyday. Widowed no GF: You've bragged about getting younger women a lot. Curious, what do these younger women look like? Attractive, fit young girls? (e.g, Bill Bilichick's twentysomething hottie) or unattractive, overweight/obese girls that guys in their age range don't want?
Secondly, are you loaded & leading with your wallet to attract these girls? I know you've mentioned that you're in excellent shape - lean & low BF and all that? - but unless you look like a Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise, that's usually not good enough to get the interest of younger, attractive women. For example, 6'5" jacked Dolph Lundgren (65) is engaged to twentysomething former model Emma Krokdal. And even with his height & looks, he's still a multi-millionaire. 😉
Now of course, no matter what answers you give, I have no way of knowing if it's true or not.This is an anonymous discussion forum where anyone can make up anything they want.
What I do know is that training in gyms as a bodybuilder for over 40 yrs now, I've yet see any 60 plus yr old bodybuilder/musclebuilder date a very young hot girl. I have seen some date less attractive younger women - usually overweight & average looking at best. And even these guys have some $ to play with using it as leverage to get with these girls. 🤣
I'll tell you a serious downside to dating younger women:
I dated a 30 year old from October through January. We are very compatible. We love each other very much. We talked about being together forever.
But- we talked about 10 years from now when she is 40 and I'm 76.
I get it. We broke up but I dread the day she meets someone else (she tells people that she wants to be single forever. She's had 3 failed relationships and then finds someone she thinks is perfect and the age gap. I get it.
I don't think she'll stay single forever but I'm still heartbroken. I wish I was younger. I wish we could look into a crystal ball and see us happy 20 years from now.
Wow, you must be very insecure to come at a 60-something like that!
News flash: No wants wants to see your little fella, either.
Do you last more than two minutes? A lot of sub-15:00 guys can't even perform at all, especially with so many people in your generation being on libido-lowering antidepressants.
Rare for your generation. Usually you boomers only care about yourselves. Good for you.
BS.
As a millennial, I know that our boomer parents were actually willing to work hard and make sacrifices for their kids. Grinding year after year from 25 (or sooner) to 65 (or later). One or two real vacations in decade.
Unlike most current 30-somethings I know, who see twice-yearly Instagram-worthy vacations abroad as an entitlement, but complain about housing prices.

But we can't.
I'm curious. From what you say you've had your share of attractive women over the years. Why does this still matter to you at 66? If it is companionship you seek why don't you seek that in someone who is at a similar stage of life, with whom you would have more in common than someone less than half your age?

I was married for 32 years, Then dated a woman 10 years younger than me, then the 27 year old then the most recent 30 year old.
I'm fine being alone. If I meet someone I'm attracted to physically and emotionally I'll get involved.
I can go on and on about the 30 year old concerning how compatible we are.
But really- since 1984 I've been involved with 4 women.
So I'm not a womanizer playboy.
Maybe on another post I can explain about the 30 year old.

I'm not saying you're a womaniser. I'm asking why, in your mid sixties, are you getting involved with women who have none of your life experience, who are so much younger than you?
Pretty damn close. On the positive, I would add travel to see the beauty everywhere.
I would add my deep negative worries:
-Financial meltdown worries
-The country is falling apart. Bad. Whether you like team Trump or not, I don't think it can be fixed. Too far gone. Grandkids are growing up in an amoral world.
Or, all of the above forces a rationalization of behavior. Believing even in something so idiotic, that it is proper for biological men to compete on an equal footing with women, illustrates peak lunacy.

I agree with the OP. That said, i was fortunate to meet my wife 53 years ago, been married 50 plus of those years. Always attractive, same weight as when we got married. Nice, fun to be around. I know we got lucky. I can’t really say we work at it. Comes naturally.

I remember you saying that at your age you feel invisible. Not everyone is like that. Work on your personality and maybe you will see that women will have an interest in you. As it is, you are the opposite of a magnet.
Yes, that's what I mean. Honestly, most people tell me I look early/mid 40's. I was lucky with the genetic lottery and lucky that I fell in love with running at the age of 12.
As much as I hated getting ID'd at 24 I look back and I'm thankful.
Have you had any plastic surgery, botox, fillers, hair restoration treatments, etc?...things like that? How about TRT/HRT?
For example, Tom Cruise (62) could pass for mid-40s, but it's my understanding he's had some plastic surgery, botox, fillers, etc, over the years. Also a hair specialist has said that it looks like Cruise has has some hair restoration work done on a receding hairline. Plus Cruise spends a ton of money on anti-aging treatments - probably since HRT stuff going on (no surprises there with Hollywood celebs. Lol).
Furthermore, have you heard of "Markus" of "The Healthy Life?" He's a 62 yr old fitness/nutrition influencer & lifelong Vegan. He also looks mid-40ish or so. He claims he's had no anti-aging work done nor uses TRT/HRT & that it's his Vegan diet & excercise program that has solely given him his youthful looks. He also said, surprising, it has nothing to do with genetics (this I find hard to believe & he does sell programs so he may be a grifter. Lol):
If you're 66 & can pass for early/mid-40s, and with no anti-aging treatments/procedures, you have alien genetics! 😯 And as a short dude at 5'7" (you're just an inch taller than me) & a buck 40, without big $$$, and you're getting with hot women half your age, you have beaten the game & have accomplished what many other 60 plus guys with money & treatments can't do.
As I mentioned, I'm a 64 yr old widowed man (2 grown kids) that's been widowed for 10 yrs now. I've been on & off in the dating market/dating apps. I've seen a lot...I've experienced a lot.
I know 60 plus year old guys who have spent big money on hair transplants, gone on TRT/HRT & gotten jacked, bought an expensive sports car, etc, -- and these guys are not getting hot, young girls like you can.
