Most of my life I have been an attentive, giving and generous man. At 60, I’m surprised at how self-centered have become.

    Was reading various books, articles, web sites, to try to understand my autistic step son. Realised that I met the criteria for autism and ADHD, explains why so much in my life has been difficult and weird. Not formally diagnosed, it’s pretty obvious when you know what to look for, and I don’t think it would help. FML

    I’m 55. I was a potato couch until 47. Then I discovered the outdoors, the mountains, the sea, the rivers. Turns out I hated gyms not exercise and I am passionate about nature.

    I was never interested in clothes. Then I found out about second hand stores. Turns out I hated current fast fashion, not clothes.

    I used to argue a lot, now I don’t bother. Some people do not deserve the compliment of rational opposition.
