Do you think its silly that some women that are married, complain about their age?

[Lipitor11]

There are some women at my work who have turned 30 or 40 complain about their age-also they are married and have kids. I'm like , what are you complaining and whining about??? They already have what they need in life, what about the single women who don't have children who are in their 30's?

[Mr Scorpio]

Not at all. I'm only 34, and I complain about my age (albeit indirectly) pretty much every time I encounter steps. Just because they have kids doesn't make wrinkles, grey hairs, or stairwells any more pleasant.

Yep whiners annoy the crap out of me. Doesn't matter what they complain about. Age is only one of the many things unmotivated, negative people complain about and it's not limited just to 30-40yo women.

I know a 70yo who complains about his family/friends not visiting him enough- you'd think by 70 he'd have learnt that the majority of people hate listening to whiners and if he STFU people might find him more tolerable to be around.

Dont notice, but it reminds me of an adorable thing my wife said yesterday.....

 

 

See this wrinkle, babe? You caused it by making me smile so much over the years.

 

She's a keeper...

i have a sister who turned 40 the love of life died next to her in her bed...... and now she hasnt any children which she wanted more than anything she never complains but she cries when she watches shows about kids being mistreated......because she would have loved them and soemtimes she cant watch shows about kids at all

 

 

i know this lovely lady who has devoted basically her whole life in the service of others, who is in her middle seventies......who bakes birthday cakes for her family and drives down to see them once a week which is a fair hike because they dont go to see her...at night by herself......her car breaks down often it isnt reliable......and sometimes she forgets how to use her mobile properly especially when stressed and when she talks about her family with me and how proud she is of them all and the ones she worries about and how busy they all are...behind the smiles and animation......i see sadness when she doesnt say to me instead "i wish they would come and see me more" but thinks it in her head.....the common thing she does say instead is" i should just shut up i talk too much".....i am working on that by making her talk as much as possible

 

 

we have one life to live but the capacity to give just one life to help someone else as does everyone......i think its more important when you deal with people who only have one life you look for what is said behind the words ....and you touch their lives in a positive manner.......instead of getting upset they might whine.....i prefer whining because then i know how to help before doing a jigsaw puzzle to work out how i can help.....deb

So.......all women want/need in life is to be married and have kids? Seriously?

Why is your reply directed at me? I am not insensitive to peoples problems, as you appear to be alluding to. Quite the opposite. I am the one people seek out to share their problems with and ask advice from.

I also recognize when someone is suffering in silence. I just don't tolerate continual whiner's as they never seem to help themselves or practice gratitude.

Can't judge someone who has a thing about 'aging'. Single or not, it shouldn't matter.
