How important are other people’s opinions to you?

We all suffer from self-doubt, but midlife women are particularly prone to do so.

This is because they think they are losing or have lost the good looks that made them attractive and confident when they were younger.  This self-doubt particularly afflicts women who have lost their previous partner, or who would like to do so.

Their thought is   ‘How can I compete with these younger women who have all the attributes of youth and beauty?’

 The good news is that you don’t have to.    Midlife, women can develop their own style, beauty and confidence, which can be very attractive to mature men, and some younger men too.

 When we are younger, we usually aim to fit in with the common standards set by our peers.

As we grow older, we become more independent, and confident enough to choose for ourselves.

 Tell us what you think in the comments and let’s start a discussion!
