To all ladies but especially those over 50 or thereabouts

As I grow in age, I value women over 50 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why:
A woman over 50 will never wake you in the middle of the night and ask, 'What are you thinking?' She doesn't care what you think.
If a woman over 50 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do, and it's usually more interesting.
Women over 50 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you if they think they can get away with it.
Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.
Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 50.
Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 50 is far sexier than her younger counterpart.
Older women are forthright and honest.. They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk, if you are acting like one. You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.
Yes, we praise women over 50 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed, hot woman over 50, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year old waitress. Ladies, I apologize.
For all those men who say, 'Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free? Here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage..Why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage!

Aw, p1key, you can make me feel all wonderfully warm and fuzzy inside without touching or even looking at me. You are a wonder, a man among men, but few men, those blessed few who truly love women, women as a whole, as a species, and when it comes to individual women, myself included, it's abundantly crystal clear that you simply like, love and respect women. Period. And the fact that you have such a deep appreciation of women over fifty, such as myself, just lifts you even higher on that invisible scale we all use. You already know how much I love you, but I'd like to tell those here that don't yet know. To all that may be reading, I love our p1kef1sh like there's no tomorrow. Makes me proud and a bit teary just to know him.
You rock, Mr. F1sh. Thank you for this. And for everything. XXXX (How didja know I needed something like this, huh?)

I love it! Especially the last line. 
I like men over 50, too. You can usually tell the jerks from the good ones by their posturing or lack thereof. Many of them have finally decided what they want to be when they grow up and when you say, "oh, look at that beautiful kitty!" the ones worth hanging out with won't snicker then pinch you. If they're really well seasoned, they're either bald or thinning and don't give a damn because they know that older women don't think hair is all that important. They also know the difference between sausage and bratwurst and won't pretend there is none.

Oh p1ke, that is so lovely to think the way you do-you are so lovely and have really boosted my ego now! Not many men or a man in my case can do that! I love you for the gentleman you are and for all the kind thoughtful things you do and say- the appreciation you have for women over fifty is only one of them and something that will not be forgotten...the boss is so lucky to have you cos if she didn't I would!! I Love you loads you only have to say things like you have about us over fifty's and it makes me feel oh so warm and happy-but loved your last sentence it made me roll up!! And is so so true! Hugs LoLo xxx

hi pikey thanks for the boost to us older womens' egoes. we so seldom hear much appreciation . I love that last sentence of yours of course I came from the old school as did my hubby but I was thirty when we married, he was thirty seven, and we knew each other just six weeks, that was it. We were just so comfortable with each other as though we had known each other all our lives, and I truly believe that somewhere out there is that one perfect mate for each of us. It is sad that some rude paunchy older men always pick the cute young chics, and I think maybe for the chicks its his money they are going for.wow. Lord when I was fifty all I wanted to do in the middle of the night was sleep,.I really did not care what my hubby was thinking.

This is a blast Steve, he he he...I laughed at the last sentence . How true, but there are still some gold nuggets out there, like you perhaps, who can survive the day with their sense of humor. It's what keeps the pig away from the slaughterhouse - the sense of humor....lol...keep going.

From a lady (sort of) over 50 or thereabouts, here's my response:
My husband is a couple of years younger than me, and I'm looking forward
to the day he turns 50. Why?
He will be less likely to ask me what I think, because frankly, he doesn't understand anyway. Hopefully, after 50 he will admit defeat.
He won't expect me to snuggle up to watch the game, or wrestling or a movie for the gazillionth time. I can play on the computer or do anything I want and there won't be hard feelings...at least until later.
If I give him a 'piece of my mind' he's less apt to carry on all night about it. Once his favorite show comes on, all is forgotten. Since I'm slightly older, when he gives me a 'piece of his mind', I can pretend I didn't hear...and get away with it.
My husband, at close to 50, is the love of my life. I've done a lot of cooking to add that paunch, and keeps those 20-something tarts at bay, no matter how much he flirts. He's comfy to cuddle with - little do they know until they're my age.
For those 80% who won't buy the pig to get a little sausage...they don't know what they are missing. It takes time and patience to mold our men into our perfect mates...as I'm sure they dp to us too. Who the heck wants to start that training all over again?
