I see so many profiles of men and women in and around 50 years old who claim to be “young at heart”, “not typical for my age” and other misguided anti-aging claims.
Here’s a fact about boomers: this is a progressive demographic and always has been. Boomers brought in groundbreaking, sexually provocative, “devil’s” music or, what we call today, rock and roll. Ouch, bad boomers. Boomers were also the first ones to launch full-scale protests and to demand political reforms.
So, if you’re a boomer and you’re young at heart, well-preserved, energetic, progressive and all those other self-flattering “youthful” adjectives, chances are you’re pretty typical. Don’t kid yourself and don’t limit yourself. You might think you’re better suited to a young love interest when, in fact, you need to forget age as a number and simply look for someone young like you – whether he or she is older or younger in age.
