No one looks like they did when they were young, but beauty comes in different forms.
My mum looked lovely in her nineties, I think the queen did too, especially in informal pics of her.
My OH was called a 'silver fox' when we were away a couple of weeks ago, that amused me, because to me he is still attractive.
He doesn't look like he did when we met 50 years ago...but age only makes us unattractive if we see beauty only in an unlined face and body.

Exactly Syl, love and beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

It is.

My OH tells people I haven't changed since we met, which is daft, because I am 50 years older.

I always put it down to, as we age, our eyesight dims, which can be a blessing really.

However....since I have now had both cataracts done, I can see everything so clearly...OH is saying I now have eyes like a 'shithouse rat', and it's true, everything is crystal clear.

My problem is....if and when OH needs his eyes doing, what will he see??
