Depressed middle-aged appeal is apparently a thing. Never in my life was I hit on more (by women and men) as I did when I hit my forties and my hair turned gray.

Come to think of it, that diagram is super accurate. When I was in my teens (elvish) and twenties (line cook) it felt like was living in a sex avalanche, but when I hit my thirties, I became invisible. Thirties doesn't meet any of the three criteria.

Can confirm. Skinny numetal kid in my teens, too many kitchen and bar jobs in my 20's and now mid 40's on Zoloft and apparently old goth dads are on the menu.

Cheers man. May the well never run dry.

Math checks out. Had all my relationships in my 20s. Haven't had a single one in my 30s and I'm going on 38 now.
