FabSwingers.com forum: Accepting ourselves

By (user no longer on site) OP
over a year ago

So this year is my big 50. I have looked back at many things and how I am the person now. I have always been the bit of a party animal on a night out. That won’t change! But guess I have become more accepting in myself of how I am and my body etc. Took a long time to get there. So just saying now I accept myself.

Nothing wrong in being fifty. I turned fifty just before the lockdown and I still feel like a youngster at heart lol

Well done you

Age is just a number , not a guide how you should live your life.

Keep doing what you do best but most of all have fun doing it.

Never base yourself on others expectations X

I’d swap 15 year for that peace if mind no problem! Plus confidence is sexy as fuck x

That's a shame to be honest I think... though obviously what you want done to your own body is up yo you. But I look back at my 36yr old self and wonder why the hell I gave myself a hard time.

I'm very much the type of person who doesn't care what other people think of me, I'll do me.

Until it comes to my weight. I know the hangups are mine, but I can't help but project that onto what I think other people are thinking.

I lost a lot of weight years ago and still had the same hangups.

Its not logical, but I can't help it.

I'm a strange one

I'm strange with you then. I remember being three sizes smaller and still thinking I was fat. Its scary to think how my confidence was effected when I was younger and I still hate myself years later and thats without all the pressure of the Instagram perfection etc that kids have shoved in their faces nowadays. So only 15 years to go before I like myself? Roll on my 50's!!

As they say ‘happiness comes from within’. Age and life experiences teach us what is and isn’t important in life.

I’m exactly like you, takes a long time and balls (no pun intended

) to look within and accept who we are. Understand what made me me, and accepting I am who I am and finally not sweating the small stuff (big stuff at other points in life) led to me being happy with me. It’s actually a bloody hard journey, but worth it. I wouldn’t go back in time for anything. I love being this age because of the above!

Anyone that’s met me will know I’m a confident soul. With manners and respect for those around me. But it wasn’t always like that. Takes work and a lot of soul searching. And being surrounded by the right people that lift you and don’t put you down.

I’m 50 in November. Plan on having a blast. Party here for vanillas. Perhaps something at CJs if possible for Fab friends. Whoop. Some of you are invited.

I blame the social construct of the universe.

Your told from any early age you should look like this, like that. Be this, be that. Your gender is this or it's that.

Peers, parents, media shove this shit at you from all angles.

You have to break free of the stigma and be free to express and love yourself in any way you want.

Then you have to stick two fingers up to the masses for being different.

Free spirited positive thinking.

If we can be free with sexual encounters on FAB.

Surely we can be free to be who WE want to be....

Love and peace,

Getting older has never bothered me as it can not be avoided. Just need to look after ourselves and make the most if what we have.

Not sure I will ever be able to accept myself fully. Usually too busy hating myself.

However I hope that one day that will tip in the other direction

I'm exactly the same!!

Although I will say you look divine in your photos - I know this wont change your way of thinking as it never does me but couldn't help but say it! I wish my photos looked half as good as yours! One day we'll both be loving ourselves in our own skin

I hit 60 very soon and can’t wait until the gyms re-open so I can teach those young pups a thing or two about growing old gracefully.

Aherm. Did I say gracefully

I play harder now than I did in my 20’s age is but a state of mind

I am a well hung man. I feel as lucky as a lottery winner. Seriously a life in self loathing not taking risks and being who you are, is only half a life. One group I love on here are divorced women who are out to make up for wasted time. Some of the best sex in my life has been with them. I love you all xxx

To feel content is a reasonable goal. Every single one of us have flaws, who actually cares?

What consumes your mind controls your life so.... Consume confidence, positivity and acceptance
