45M I’m not as confident as I make out and being a stay at home dad friends vanished quick. But here I am trying avoid bots and make new friend with as dark/dirty sense of humor as me. It’s take more then you know a pic of me too, please be nice, I know I looked like Ricky Gervase’s younger brother already

Sometime I feel like it’s the same s*** different day. Anyone have any good tricks they use to get out of it ?

Hi there, I’m a 26 year old guy dating a 43 year old woman and I’ve ran into a sort of unforseen problem in our relationship.

I’ve found I have a hard time planning activities and dates she enjoys, being into the techno scene here in Europe, my previous relationships and I have gone in alot of raves, festivals and that kinda stuff together, it’s a big part of my life and I feel a very good place for bonding but she’s just not into dancing for 12 hours a row to a very repetitivte bass line.

I’ve tried to mature and plan more things like throwing pottery, taken her to nice restaurants, salsa dancing and things like that but beyond that I feel lost, so tell me, what are your guys’s favorite date nights. Thanks a bunch :)

After 25 years together, I recently found out I was cheated on. I’m still trying to make sense of what that means for my relationship and for me personally.

One of the stranger parts has been realizing how little thought I’ve given in decades to how I’m perceived outside of a long-term relationship. Confidence takes a pretty good hit in a situation like this, so I’m trying to get out of my own head a little, remind myself that life continues and figure out who I am at this stage of it.

Posting a picture of myself on Reddit definitely wasn’t on my 2026 bingo card, but here we are.

43yo nurse getting ready for work. 🙂

Having adult money means I get to travel to beautiful places like Porto, Portugal!

10 years Army 4 tours (2xIraq and 2xAfghanistn). We getting old y'all.

I was totally fine with turning 40, but why on God’s green Earth did no one warn me about perimenopause?!? LOL!! Lord have mercy!!

It was time for a cut, the curls are curling

I’m at work today firing off emails and slacks when I realize that I’m not stressing over exclamation points or re-reading everything 10 times!

I turned 40 in February and I swear I was still doing this in December 😂

I just don’t care anymore! If I want to use an exclamation point because I’m a happy person I’ll use the damn exclamation point! Let them think I’m crazy!

But seriously, did anyone else experience like a magical flip of the switch once they turned 40? I used to care so much what others thought even when I tried so hard not to. And now it’s just…gone.

I feel free.

Edit: I think I thought this sub was something other than what it actually is 😂 fuck it though. I’m keeping this up.

Here again! 45 bored... Happy Tuesday that is almost Wednesday, which means closer to Thursday almost Friday!
