At what age should a man go through his midlife crisis?

I'm not sure what you're having is a mid-life crisis. I've always felt a mid-life crisis had to do with a man hitting an age where he became obsessed with the fact that his best years were behind him. Maybe you feel that way due to the issues you've faced at just 19. Either way you should talk to someone, friend & family are the place to start but if that's not an option seek professional help.\n\nLife is too short to spend it worried about death.\n\nGood luck.

I agree, if your male and your 18 and over, anything over 3 yrs is inappropiate. I would say between 2 and 3 yrs but then again depending on the maturity of the lesser you may want to trhough the rules out of the window.

..Hi ...If you are serious about that girl..and you are shure that it is not a midlife crisis..you should talk to your wife..And eather stay with her/ or choose that girl...You cannot have both...You should make a fresh start then...and live with the consequenties...Think it over..and make the right decisson for yourself! ...People can advice you..but it is up to you...\nKind regards...And good luck..

Depends on your personality, physical activity and how you look. Heck, if you act like a 25 year old, you may get one, that is if you are mentally stable and wise. But, in all actuality, you should probably stop at 33. 10 years isn't bad.

they only do that while they are young..but once they hit about 30 and they have had their hearts ripped out by some hot looking chic..all of a sudden they realize its not about looks anymore..its about whats on the inside..older men are more grounded unless they got married young or something and their wife got old and fat and then they hit 40 then all of a sudden they cheat on their wife with a 20 yr old...men are all very complicated...study psychology,it will help u understand the basics of human nature and why we do what we do...we are all trying to compensate for what we feel is an emptiness..whether its sex,religion,food,cars,clothes or whatever...basically it boils down to we are more intelligent now and have more time on our hands and we dont have to hunt and gather anymore and run from wild animals while wearing furs or skins of animals...weve evolved and do not know how to handle all the glamour of it....but a good psychology book will help out on the boy situation...

Most men mature at a slower rate than women.  An old Italian system for the proper age of a couple is : the woman should be half the age of the man, plus seven years.  ie.) a 40 y.o. Man should date a 27 y.o. woman.  A 13 year difference in that case.  I say go for it.  The two of you have a good chance of being compatible.

You are actually in a position to experience what every divorced man at 40 wish he could. My advice, don't take it too slow. But dont be the proverbial bull in a china cabinet either. Stock up on vitamin K. Its good for the protein drain you are about to experience. Cialis is only a dr. appt away! Go for it buddy, and if you can, have a kid. This time you won't be as strapped for cash as before. Enjoy your youth while you can. Eventhough, we now live longer, the one's here, don't care!

Jim Morrison,Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Kurt Cobain and I'm sure a few others have died at 27. All these people did a lot of drugs. 27 is an age where most people decide whether or not they want to grow up or not. Most young people start out destroying themselves in their teenage years, the body and mind can only take so much abuse if a person continues to destroy his or her own body and mind 27 is just about the age it will take to kill it.

Middle age is usually when you have "peaked" and you have made it.  I havent got that far yet.  Looking forward to hitting middle age at around 55...because I plan to live until 110.

Male Menopause (also called viropause or andropause) involves the hormonal, physiological, and chemical changes that occur in all men generally between the ages of 40 and 55, though it can occur as early as 35 or as late as 65. These changes effect all aspects of a man's life. The purpose of male menopause is to signal the end of First Adulthood and prepare men for Second Adulthood. The initial signs often involve changes in a man's sexuality.\n You can read more about it here http://www.csun.edu/~psy453/menop_y.htm

i don't think you are a man until you have responsibilities and take care of them.  that doesn't mean chores but things such as bills, yourself (without all financial help from parents), and family. age has nothing to do with it.

What would he do if you were going through some changes too.\n     I can tell you from what you have shared, hes wonderful.\n  \n  So I would hold him tight, understand what he is going through.\n Give him lost of water and just love him.\n\n   Let him have some outlets. Let him grow right now he needs it.\n   If he doesn't grow now when he is 55 he will anger and really \n   hate life, that is not what you want..   \n\n  And there is nothing wrong with being spoiled! Be proud of your life and hard work.

I'm 32 and thought for along time men were bastards, but there are men out there that do care alot, you just have to go out and find them.

You hit the nail on the head with "mid-life crisis". He needs validation that his manhood and virility are still intact. This is however, a breach of his professional ethics. His marriage may not be unhappy ... just stale. It happens in the very best of marriages.

If you believe good men are hard to find when you are in your twenties, the barrel is even drier as you get older.  Our society is more interested in immediate sexual gratification.  There are not many men who want to commit and work on having a healthy steady relationship.  There are some who desire a relationship---at least in theory--but they will not put forth the effort or time to have a mature relationship.  \n\nWhen you become older you should mature emotionally and childish behaviors and ideas die.  Change is a very frightening thing for many people and they would rather stay at the status quo then work to improve communication skills, their lifestyle or their backwards thinking about relationship.  If you want a relationship, I would tell you to know your needs and what it is you want from the relationship and do not compromise.\n\nThe picking is slim for a good woman.

Well, I'm middle-aged too (44); we're not ALL kids out here!\nOne thing that surprises me most at this stage of life is how far I've gone with very little education.  I'm merely a high-school graduate, but have a fun, interesting, well-paying job and a bright future.  I'm living proof that even the dumbest among us can succeed!\nAnother thing that surprises me is how screwy my friends' lives are.  Between divorces, dalliances, ventures into some of the...ahem...darker areas of life, and debt, some of my friends are really teetering on the crumbly edge!   I thought I had a monopoly on leading a screwed-up life!\nThe last thing that surprises me is how much I enjoy going back to school.  Last year I started taking pre-engineering courses at my local community college.  I'm very satisfied with my progress, and have something to look forward to when I retire in another 11 years or so.
