As
I grow in age, I value women who are over fifty most of all. Here are just a
few reasons why:
A woman over fifty will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, “What
are you thinking?” She doesn’t care what you think.
If a woman over fifty 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
something more interesting.
A woman over fifty knows herself well enough to be assured in who she is, what
she is, what she wants and from whom. Few women past the age of forty give a
hoot what you might think about her or what she’s doing.
Women over fifty 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.
A woman over fifty has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women
friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best friend
because she doesn’t trust the guy with other women. Women over fifty couldn’t
care less if you’re attracted to her friends because she knows her friends
won’t betray her.
Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman
over fifty. They always know.
A woman over fifty looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not true of
younger women. Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over fifty 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 fifty for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it’s
not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed hot woman of fifty-plus,
there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with
some twenty-two-year-old waitress.
Found somewhere on the internet - this, together with Maya Angelo's statement on what every woman should have, is truth!
