kelel01 1 #9 January 26, 2005 Mine started in college . . . and it'll probably never end. Doesn't a midlife crisis simply indicate being dissatisfied with your life to that point? That's how I always think of it. I could never pick a major, or a guy, or an interest. Skydiving was just whacky enough to stick. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is when people evaluate their life and ask, "Is this how I want to spend the rest of my life?" Women seem to hit it at 27, men at 35. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frenchy68 0 #14 January 26, 2005 There's no good midlife crisis without a divorce and the purchase of a sports car!

freeflir29 0 #15 January 26, 2005 QuoteWomen seem to hit it at 27, men at 35. OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHH..................is THAT what this is? I was wondering why I suddenly got such an aversion to the thought of working 5+ days a week till I'm over 50. FUCK THAT! SO now I can put a label on what I have been feeling lately. Of course........I have spent the last 7 hours doing paperwork to get my new job. THAT is also driving me nuts! I just want to leave and go skydiving in Florida........

windcatcher 0 #16 January 26, 2005 so if some people start skydiving during their midlife crisis, what are people who are already skydivers supposed to do when they hit midlife? (start doing BASE?)

happythoughts 0 #21 January 26, 2005 QuoteI was wondering why I suddenly got such an aversion to the thought of working 5+ days a week till I'm over 50. When you are 20, you have a lot of enthusiasm for work. The theory is that you will eventually have the time to use all the accumulated toys. In practice, you end up working all weekend to pay for them and never use them. At 35, you realize that you have been working for 15 years and you have another 30 years of work ahead. You are tired of the last 15 and now you have twice as many ahead. Then the question, "Is this all there is to life?"
