I read once more people when they get old and die regret what they didn't do then what they did do..... I had chances....Even though I was married I had a few opportunities for one night stands or an affair.. ... Now I would be satisfied with just getting drunk or stoned ...

Oh RTS, it is so good to see you! I have been wondering how you were. (i'm Mastodon.)
Plenty of people regret stupid things they have done and like every glib saying that one is patently false - staying safe sounds like a better plan. Which is not to say it's too late to do something fun. You are my age, IIRC. My T has mentioned to me that he has seen people e.g. discovering their sexuality when they were in their 50s (that was profoundly depressing to hear for me for reasons you don't want to hear about, but I think it is supposed to be hopeful).
