2. The difference between a regular identity crisis and a midlife one?

   Age

3. First off you’d need to know the date of your death, so that you can calculate whether you are currently at the mid point of your life. From there it’s just a matter of working out if you are in a crisis…

4. If your crisis fixates on age and a sense of running out of time.

5. Are you a male? Is your spouse pre-menopausal? if so then its a real midlife crisis.

6. If you spend an inordinate amount of time looking at motorcycles for sale.

7. Ppl around you will definitely not let you know

8. As long as you’re not dipping into your retirement to live it out or something who cares? Do what makes you happy.

   Folks have a bad habit of calling anything fun done by a guy over 35 or so a crisis. Can never just be that circumstances let him do or have something he always wanted, it’s gotta he some kind of problem he should be mocked for.

13. You are about mid life and feel like a failure ao you try to do things beyond what you normally do.

14. People will tell you.

15. I think the whole idea of a “midlife crisis” is bullshit. maybe you can finally afford to try the thing you’ve always wanted to try? that’s not a crisis. it’s life.

    you know why you see so many old men in corvettes? because they’re fucking EXPENSIVE.

16. If you end up doing things that leave you broke, Divorced, jobless, homeless, in the hospital or in jail.
