whats wrong w this question?
Any1 had a mid-life crisis?
I recently shifted my attitude and started living for myself instead of my 16 yr old, since he doenst appreciate it anyway...have u ever seen the last scene in Gypsy? Rosalind Russell sings For Me! For Me! For Me! It feels great. I was in a strict religion w a dress code, but I now have a pierced nose, shorter hair --and am planning on getting a shoulder length cut, I wear make up and have started buying me things on MY wishlist for a change!
Is this a mid-life crisis? What was ur mid-life crisis like? ps Im 43, female, one child. I want a life for me...I want to take cosmetology but its 30 mins away by car and Im too scared to drive. I want to learn to cut hair and do make up and nails, which wasnt allowed bc of my religion for the past 14 yrs. I want to redecorate and get some more modern stuff and not have so many antiques. I want my son to get a job and do more stuff for himself. I want to dress and look the way I want to look, not for any man. I dont want to be rebellious in that I believe in God and heaven and hell, but my religion was sooo warped I want to know the real truth about these things, and since Ive been living for myself its like a whole new life. Ive been in menopause since 35 when I had surgery, so thats not it.
Someone said "Sure." and that I need counselling. I dont get it. Ppl keep saying that to me, but Ive been thru therapy et al and didnt get jack out of it. Its pointless to keep doing the same thing, expecting diff results.

sounds to me like your just really happy to be free and to be able to do what you wish and use your money for yourself for a change.

I'm sorry you've had such a hard time with your son and in life. As for religion, it can be very constricting, so good for you for getting away from it! I am a believer, a Christian, and I read my Bible pretty much every day. I believe the Truth of it, but I don't feel constricted to wear a certain type of clothing or to go around beating people over the head with it, and it sounds like you're on the same path. Just know that it's never too late in life to do what you have a passion for. God gives us many gifts and skills, so if hair and nails is it, go for it. Many things in life are scary, just don't let fear hold you back from trying. Ask God to help give you the strength to try new things! God bless and best wishes to you!

I love Hollister. Everything in their store I would most definitely wear and I'm a rather picky person, too. There's nothing wrong with them, it all just depends on each person's tastes. Point blank? Those that love to bash Hollister just have no lives.
