I’m a 22 year old female who keeps getting hit on by men in their 40’s and older. It makes me sick and I’m tired of it! Many of them have big guts, are balding, and I know are married. Thanks! Teresa Dear Teresa Well Teresa, I think other women will tell you this has been going on since cavemen had clubs. The only way to correct the problem is to go bald and get a gut yourself basically. Men are attracted to women they find appealing at all ages, but luckily most do not act on it. It goes on frequently in clubs when, after a couple, guys get their courage up for a little flirtation or two. Much of it is actually a little test to see if they still have it by seeing if a younger woman would be attracted to them. Aside from being a nuisance it rarely goes anywhere. My advice is to enjoy the attention but politely decline their advance. Perhaps you may consider where you are going for your socializing. Perhaps it’s time for a change in venue. Just be careful who you put down however because you never know in today’s world. Never go out alone and avoid the bar area where most of the “hits” happen. Today’s young women dress more provocatively then in the past. The heat of the flame attracts all the moths. Will you guys leave Teresa alone please! How’d I do? Al Dear Boomer Al I’m 25 and I’m torn between two men that I am starting to fall for. The problem is one is my age and we have fun but he’s broke. The other is 38 and owns his own business so I feel secure with him. They’re both good looking. Thoughts? Torn Dear Torn I guess it would depend on why the younger man is broke. If he’s lacking ambition and is a non-conformist rebel stay clear. It makes for good music and movies but a bad lifetime companion. Otherwise, he may just need some time to reach his potential. I for one believe a young man shows his metal before 25. I bought my first business at 28 but I always hungered for success. I wanted a girl on my arm I could be proud of and could be proud of me. Most men are unaware of the effect that a sense of security has on the health of a relationship. A man who is unable or unwilling to pay the price to provide economic security for his family quickly becomes a failure in a woman’s eyes. The resulting loss of respect and feelings of insecurity quickly break down the relationship. Your attraction to the older more established man feeds these natural longings within you and makes you think of raising a family with such a man. Following your heart is good, but a little common sense mixed in is better still. Your future kids will benefit. Parents are usually a safe barometer if you’re open to their input. They know of a side of life you haven’t seen. Discuss it with your mom. Your dad will agree with me. In the end it’s your choice. Al Need to buy or sell a house ... check this out! _.·´¯)What's up with this?(¯`·._ School is out and many of the kids are making preperations for college this Fall. I wish them success in their education. Just a little heads up. Many of you come from homes where your parents kept a tight reign. They taught you morals and responsibility. When you get to school you will fimd a whole host of individuals who have neither. Resist the temptation to go a little off the deep end. More freshmen completely mess up their lives by not taking proper advantage of the opportunity about to be presented to them. Be careful because some of your decisions will be irreversible. America needs registered nurses and teachers. There are many needs in these fields. For the many of you entering the world of work, find a good company and stay put. Work your way up and establish yourself and build a solid resume. Employers don't like to see constant moving. There was a rage of that in the 90's but it's back to more traditional stuff now. The starting pay isn't as important as the potential being offered. Choose wisely. Don't blow all your money on cars and dating. High school is over. Watch your credit and have only one credit card. Plan on being on your own by twenty-one unless you're in school. The freedom of adulthood comes with responsibilities to pay your bills, be a responsible citizen by voting and participating in your community. The trades have been much neglected so there are many opportunities for carpenters, plumbers, electricians, mechanics, and more. America is still the land of opportunity. Two years at the same job and you qualify to buy your first home. Set it as a goal. Your whole life is ahead of you so don't waste your precious time hanging out. Get down to business. Before you know it you'll wonder where your life went. Just my opinion. Don't like it? So tell me off at ... The Forum at Boomer Journals _.·´¯) Boomer Ha Ha!
