My support network consists of my college professors and my pets. Otherwise, I am my own support network, which is why I feel strongly that those of us who hang out in the forums should band together for support and discussing experiences which are unique to our
age group.
Anybody with me?  |

I didn't think there were any of my breed left. Im 53 going on 30 . never been married , no children , Mother and father dead for 12 and 19 years. My support ? Is my interactions with my clients who are usually older some younger. I gave up dating 12 years ago . But I have hopes of having what Ive never had ,, But finding a man in my same shoes . I think is doubtful. I found one briefly whos bisexual... wonderul
I'm not in a great place emotionally. just too many hurtful things handed my way lately and My soul love of My life my Dog Is very ill. changes day to day.
The last four or five years have been the most trying and painful In my life. I feel Ive aged a bunch .because of it.
I can't say at this point Ill be here to be in your group.
But I
want to say yes Im over 50. humble underpaid gardener who is totally feeked about the future . And no retirement no back up no support.
