00:00:00.880 --> 00:00:07.320
I am so proud of myself.
I just broke a cycle and realize something.

2
00:00:08.000 --> 00:00:11.679
Hi, this is fifty plus James
add Junior, and you know,

3
00:00:11.759 --> 00:00:15.359
as you know, I am out
there single, trying to date, trying

4
00:00:15.359 --> 00:00:18.879
to meet people, and it's hard
in your fifties. I'll be fifty five

5
00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:23.559
in the month and like literally a
month and it's really tough. You're trying

6
00:00:23.640 --> 00:00:30.160
to, you know, find the
right person and everything. And tonight I'm

7
00:00:30.199 --> 00:00:35.560
on several of the apps and I
just kind of I leave it open,

8
00:00:35.759 --> 00:00:42.640
you know, I left open in
terms of distance and age and race and

9
00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:45.640
every they decided to do wide open, see who comes through. I like

10
00:00:45.679 --> 00:00:51.640
all kinds of people. So tonight
I met someone and actually connected. Really.

11
00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:59.759
This person is thirty two and newly
thirty two, so under under over

12
00:00:59.799 --> 00:01:03.920
t twenty something years younger than me. That's number one. Very cute though.

13
00:01:03.120 --> 00:01:06.879
Green gray eyes. Green eyes are
my favorite of all time. They're

14
00:01:06.959 --> 00:01:10.200
very rare. My girl, Tammy
Govea has them. If you if you

15
00:01:10.239 --> 00:01:17.079
go to watch my shows with me, she has them. That's there.

16
00:01:17.599 --> 00:01:23.159
Oh sorry, look at I start
looking at something and uh and very nice

17
00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:30.120
looking everything. Sorry talking well.
The opening was Taylor Swift. Oh,

18
00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:33.599
person said the queen. Taylor Swift
was like, oh, the queen.

19
00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:37.280
I'm like, okay, we're different
generations. Clearly, obviously I don't think

20
00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:40.040
wrong. I don't think wrong with
Taylor Swift. But I was speaking his

21
00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:42.680
language and I was kind of like, you know, I do admire her

22
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:44.680
and I want her to succeed and
stuff. She's like, oh my god,

23
00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:51.680
Mary. Anyway, we had a
conversation this person's looking for I'm looking

24
00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:55.200
for supposedly as we just just wrong
online this meeting for the first time.

25
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:02.120
But I realized something as I was
the old me, I have data younger.

26
00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:06.239
I have data younger, taking all
the jokes everything with my friends and

27
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:08.560
stuff, and it works out.
So I realized the way tonight. I'm

28
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:14.759
like, the last six or seven
people I talked to were in their fifties

29
00:02:14.759 --> 00:02:20.680
and sixties, and you know what, I like it, I do.

30
00:02:22.240 --> 00:02:24.199
And it was like it was like
a giant it was like a giant truth

31
00:02:24.280 --> 00:02:28.800
bomb just dropped on me. And
I was like, I like that.

32
00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:35.840
I think I want more of that
of that age group. I don't think

33
00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:38.680
I want anyone younger than me like
that, So I might be changing my

34
00:02:38.840 --> 00:02:49.879
preferences to of the age part and
make a little older. Now, I

35
00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:53.879
you know, I made by in
their forties yet, because that's that could

36
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:57.159
be I don't know, maybe ten
years longer than me. Maybe Okay,

37
00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:06.159
I don't know, but I realized
tonight twenty years. No, no,

38
00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:07.840
no, and it could be.
I mean, it's just for me.

39
00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:12.879
I mean, I think you dave
whatever you want, but for me,

40
00:03:12.960 --> 00:03:16.840
I'm like, that's not what I
want. And I politely just like let

41
00:03:16.879 --> 00:03:21.319
them, let them the person know, I'm sorry, I just I'm not

42
00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:24.360
there. You're you're just very young. You're very sweet. This person called

43
00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:29.479
me papa. Within the first two
minutes I was talking, I realized,

44
00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:35.039
I don't like that either. That's
not I that doesn't turn me on nothing.

45
00:03:35.159 --> 00:03:38.800
I don't like that. So that
was a nice you get in your

46
00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:45.479
fifties. You know. The joke
is that we're always trying to go younger

47
00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:51.080
a lot of times, and that's
true. And I still think there's nothing

48
00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:53.319
wrong with it if you want to
go younger or go younger. But I

49
00:03:53.360 --> 00:04:00.280
was like, you go on,
I'm good, I'm good, and I

50
00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:05.080
like my age or older or or
at least a few at least fifties and

51
00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:10.439
sixties, So that to me,
I feel like I broke a cycle of

52
00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:13.080
saying that I know it's not gonna
work out. And this person looked far

53
00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:15.680
out to like one hundred miles away
from me, so I'm like, we're

54
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:17.519
never gonna meet anyway, So I'm
never gonna meet. I have a car,

55
00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:20.319
anything might go direction. So I
was just like, this is gonna

56
00:04:20.319 --> 00:04:24.519
be just a we're gonna talk out
here anyway, and the knowh's gonna happen.

57
00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:31.360
But I thought, but in terms
of just knowing who I am and

58
00:04:31.399 --> 00:04:35.879
realizing this is this is, I
know what I want. But now I

59
00:04:36.040 --> 00:04:40.600
know what I want age wise too. You know, all the people I've

60
00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:45.000
talked to you last year didn't work
out, there were still there's things about

61
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:49.279
them that I really enjoyed, and
their age was part of it. They

62
00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:54.800
were just it was just more relatable
and in the end, and I don't

63
00:04:54.839 --> 00:04:57.920
know if just again for me,
it feels like a triumph for meal,

64
00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:00.120
a little mini triump because I feel
like I just just realize something about myself

65
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:04.720
and I'm feeling good about it.
I'm feeling very good about it. So

66
00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:11.360
I think I want to keep that
and now I'm going to go forward in

67
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:14.279
that and just you know, someone
I'm a change of settings. But if

68
00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:17.120
someone younger comes up to me,
I could be nice to them and just

69
00:05:17.120 --> 00:05:20.079
just be polite and be like,
you know, I'm sorry. I just

70
00:05:20.120 --> 00:05:26.120
want to find my age. He's
older. And you know in this in

71
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:29.079
this day and age, is something
wrong with when somebody your age or older,

72
00:05:29.079 --> 00:05:30.759
it's like iybody wants you know,
it's like everybody trying to go younger

73
00:05:31.240 --> 00:05:35.959
or if you go younger, like
you can. But for me, I

74
00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:41.079
well, so I'm just smiling because
I feel good about something in this whole

75
00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:44.519
crazy dating world, which is not
fun, and especially in your fifties is

76
00:05:44.519 --> 00:05:46.480
not fun. But there are plenty
of people in their fifties since you start

77
00:05:46.519 --> 00:05:50.160
looking for love. Also, I'm
seeing them more and more now I'm actively

78
00:05:50.199 --> 00:05:58.360
looking, So I'm going to continue
actively looking their direction too. What are

79
00:05:58.360 --> 00:06:00.759
some things in your fifties that year? If you're dating out there in your

80
00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:03.680
fifties or sixties or seventies or eighties, what do you notice if you like

81
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:09.000
now that you didn't that you may
have changed their thoughts on? Let me

82
00:06:09.040 --> 00:06:12.439
know, is this fifty plus we're
everywhere and i'll tech to you next time.
