Re: At This Age, What Questions Do You Dread Being Asked?
Why are we all so embarrassed about getting old and sometimes looking like we need help?If somebody offered help, that I didn't need, I would say " I can manage, but thanks for asking"
One day we may actually need the help, so I wonder how many would complain if it wasn't offered then. Don't we all want young people to be respectful to the elderly? I know I would appreciate help if I was struggling to do something and somebody offered help

I can remember not too many years back a lovely young man offering to carry my shopping bags for me .. sadly, thinking of his age (not mine) I declined ...
but it did cross my mind to take him home with me and keep him in the shed so Mr M didn't find him.

Mr M burst my bubble over that.There are no secrets between us .. so I batted my eyelashes coquettishly and told him about the lovely young chap who liked me...
And he said ..
Huh, was probably just planning to steal your purse.
