You can't imagine why a forum of predominantly adult men in their late twenties to mid forties would be interested in an article about aging gracefully and maintaining warm healthy relationships with their peers?
- bcjdjsndon 11mo agoBecause it's so elementary?
- natebc 11mo agoit's really not. It's easy for some, sure and you're maybe one of them (or perhaps mistaken!) but many, many MANY people, especially men, even intelligent men struggle with social situations and maintaining healthy social relationships.
- bcjdjsndon 11mo agoBe nice? Don't be a know it all? Even if you don't believe it you've surely heard people say it sometime in the last 40 years. Autism notwithstanding, and that probably accounts for a decent share of the readership
- natebc 11mo agoI am, and don't ... but that still doesn't mean it doesn't take effort. There's way more to it than smiling and not being a complete tool. How long has it been since you called your long lost best friend and caught up? Did you go to his brothers funeral? Check in on him after his divorce? A year after his divorce? 5? It takes effort and is far from elementary no matter how much rizz you have.
- bcjdjsndon 11mo agoI agree it's effort it's just not hard..... for a 40 year old, remember.
- pseudalopex 11mo agoIt is for many empirically.
- dwaltrip 11mo agoThere’s something paradoxical about your comment… :)
