Answer #1

The only thing I can really tell you is the hair going grey, the clothes start to really look elderly. Long story short, an adult around their 50’s begin to act and feel as if they are getting older by the minute.

Answer #2

Mid life crisis is basically when someone start to see thr mortality, and they wish they wud have done more when they were young and they want to go back to bn young so some start doin crazy things like a 25 yr old wud. Hope that makes since

Answer #3

I see it as a mid-life epiphany. We spend half our life following everyone else’s rules, meeting everyone else’s expectations, and trying to make everyone else happy when we notice that for us life kinda’ sucks. One pointless unfulfilling day blending into the next. There is no sense of adventure and nothing is really fun anymore because we have to be reasonable and dependable. The choice is to either keep going in the well worn rut and wait for death or to shake things up to have one last hurrah before we get too old and decrepit and set in our ways to do it.
