My generation is having its midlife crisis in its 20s.
During my completely soul-shredding midlife crisis at the age of twenty-eight, I felt sure I had peaked too soon.
I don't like the term mid-life crisis.
The mid-life crisis hits men harder than women.
You know, let a few years go by until I hit my midlife crisis. Then that can be documented on film.
I say I have a midlife crisis every time I start and finish a record.
I think midlife crisis is just a point where people's careers have reached some plateau and they have to reflect on their personal relationships.
It's kind of like a midlife crisis kind of thing. When you turn 40, you have to run the marathon, while all the parts still work properly.
Was he hitting some type of werewolf midlife crisis? First, he'd left Wolf Town, and now he was envisioning a mate. What next? Bird watching? Board games? Retirement homes?
I tend to do something for two years then move on to something new. Yoga, then biking, then weight lifting, then back to biking. The moment it feels like a rut, I switch and search for a new love. It's like having a midlife crisis, but without the ne...
With improved coping skills forged through my midlife crisis, I now listen first and do not control, and I allow these now adult children to come to their own conclusions about what they want for their lives.
