I'm 53 and I go on the chat and have insightful conversations with members to find out that they're only 22 or 24. Wow to my surprise! I even listened to one interpreting dreams for others in one room to later attend an over 21+ room to find out this person was only 16.

The youth of today are very intelligent...and crafty. I wouldn't have know since the conversations aren't about empty nest, or being a grandmother for the first time.

This being said...maybe I should find those my own age to learn life about. The over 40 group isn't really appealing to me since I don't have teenagers or relationships that I can relate to.

At 53, I am going through my new realization of myself, probably for the first time in my life. I guess that's why I'm not so interesting in finding a mate...I've had many in my day.....where those relationships were more about them than me. So at my age I'd like to communicate with others who are alone and finding this a little difficult but also are trying to cope and enjoy life.
