Do not look outside your marriage for new and exciting sexual encounters.
I hope Dr Frige "gets it done" for you, but even if he doesn't, please don't stray. |

I'm 41.
I want a motorcycle. Not a Harley. My wife wants me to live and not get one. I have good life insurance and she would be a rich woman if I died. I want a motorcycle. What shall I do? |

Decide if the motorcycle is the hill you want to "die" on ...and realize your wife must love you (or at least like you a little) if the part about rich woman doesnt sway her opinion.....

ah litter boxes arent too bad... perhaps she needs you to plunge the toliets... although, if your house is like mine, you are responsible for clogging them

I'm starting mine a bit late at age 45 but it was somewhat delayed while I finished up my service to our country. First was the car. I'm busy shopping new pickups big enough to tow campers/ATV trailers etc. and was at the Harley dealership with a checkbook in hand ... and could write a check for any of the bikes on display (but didn't).

Be reasonable. Don't be a squid. Don't get a bike. You'll get off, and will probably hurt yourself a little. It ain't worth it. |

I am a man that appreciates the stability of a strong family and the excitement of what a good life has to offer. This keeps me at home when wrenching and out with the wife when showing it off. Mid-life crisis? Maybe.

I think in a nutshell, Mid life crisis happens to people that "grow up" too fast and miss out on childhood stuff...
I STILL feel like an 18 year old kid... I like my toys. I STILL buy and play bass guitar, STILL watch baseball games, and now buy guns. Plus you have to have a spouse that keeps you young at heart. What happens is that you realize that you are now in your 40's and wonder "Where the hell did my youth go?" So you have that one last major purchase, one fling with another of the opposite sex or purchasing new body parts or paying for the removal of 'excess' body parts. I have a neighbor that "wasnt 'happy' anymore with her life" and got herself ANOTHER divorce leaving her two sons devastated. Life is what you make of it. Not what you own, what you 'feel' for that moment or where you live. Its what you feel about yourself and more important, What your loved ones around you feel about YOU. Now excuse me for a minute, I have to go wake up the wife so she will make me a sammich!!! |

I'm going to try to have my midlife crisis next year. I'm gonna get a house and sell off my current car to buy a Porsche Boxster. And I might shave my head, too.
Oh yeah, and I'm only 28 (29 in two weeks) and unmarried. Completely single. |

I didn't look outside the house to solve my Mid-Life Crisis.
I built the 'solution' in my garage.

My situation exactly! I still burn rubber in front of the house, drag race my sons at the track, buy guns and cases of tannerite, learn new songs on the guitar, etc. I agree with you in that I feel I've never actually 'grown-up' - whatever that means. I have no regrets about where my youth went because in many ways, I still have it - along with a great wife and three terrific children who keep me grounded. The 66 Fastback pictured above with the 400HP 351W, 3.55 posi 9" rear, tremec 5-spd is just icing on the cake.

I'm forty and also don't feel that grown up yet. I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up!
Midlife crisis...I'm some ways away from one, I think. I'm in better shape now than I've ever been in my life. I'm stronger, faster, smarter...I must be the fricking six million dollar man! (OK, maybe six thousand dollar man...that's what my ER visit for a bad kidney stone attack ended up costing!) I'm about ready to grab my skateboard and hit the 13 foot halfpipe at the local skatepark again, now that I've dumped the weight I was working off. (Dropped from 210 to 185 in two and a half months. I feel like I'm in skating shape.) Thanks to DHEA supplements, my testosterone level is up to the levels it was when I was in my 20s and I can feel it. I'm hornier than a bull in a herd of heifers in heat and I've been doing something about it! If THIS is a midlife crisis, I'm loving it! I feel SO alive! CJ |

You should listen to me. I passed on the road this afternoon a guy I knew who was going from work to the gym. His GSXR1000 lay crushed on the left side of the road and he lay under a bloody sheet under the guard rail. He was 40. It ain't worth it. |

If you're 50 and still alive, it's okay you don't have to grow up!

Well, I was born in a mid life crisis and I will die in a midlife crisis (same one, continuous) I am retired and still don't know what I want to be. I don't have life insurance and my wife wants me to buy a mororcycle. I really do have it good.
