At last, I'm a stud.

When I was growing up, I didn't exactly set women's hearts afire. But ,now, I'm a young 72 year old male, in an assisted living facility. There are four males to twenty five females. Yup, women outlive males. I have to admit, I like the attention from my feminine house mates. Just a greeting brings giggles and smiles from them. At last, while it's a fleeting delusion, I'm a stud.:)
 

Hey FB glad to hear that you have taken the plunge into new surroundings!!!

When you have time give us a rundown of the facility, food and social activities other than the beach blanket bingo!!!
 
My late uncle had to be persuaded reluctantly to go into an "active" assisted living facility. It was only a matter of days before he realized that he had landed in paradise. The ratio there was 15% male to 85% female. As he was a very good-looking guy, he was surrounded by the ladies before he knew what happened to him. He was still a good driver and had a car, so that made him even more popular. His last three years were spent very, very happily.
 
You/ve stumbled on to a well kept secret. I've been to a couple senior citizen center events and it was the same thing, 4 men to about 15 women who were giddy and swooning. Enjoy being a stud muffin.
 
My dear friend Louis attended a line dancing group at his church. There were only 3 men in the group to a lot more women. He had a great time line dancing twice a week until he died at 92. He loved the attention and the home cooking that came his way!
 
My close friend,Peter who is 85,like a favorite uncle to me, lost his wife Rose,2 yrs ago.They lived in Hamburg,NY{south of Bflo} for over 60 yrs.A yr ago,Peter moved into an assisted living facility,two blocks from where they use to live.He loves the food and has become active there. He's made friends with a couple of the female residents,they enjoy his company.He no longer drives,his friends take him out a couple times/week.

That's funny that you should mention roosters and hens. That's exactly what they used to call my uncle: The Head Rooster and his Hens.

When I was looking for a facility for him in my town, I met with several directors to gather information. One told me they would be delighted to have an active man around but that it took about six weeks for everything to settle down after a new one moves in. She said the last time that happened, there was hairpulling and extreme squabbling among a few of the ladies. Actual hair pulling. Apparently it upsets the balance for a while and the women tend to fight over the new guy.

Fuzzy, so happy you've moved from your house into assisted living and are having fun there. What is the place like, do you have your own apartment/room?
 
I happened to be in an assisted living facility on Sunday. My grandson's piano recital was held there. A lot of the residents came to listen to all the children play, and as I looked around at the part of the crowd that wasn't the parents and siblings of the performers, I realized I was seeing mostly women, with a couple of men very central in the group. I had the distinct impression that the women were jockeying for position around the men! :lol:

Enjoy yourself FB!
 
This thread was posted about one year ago. Since then, I have come back home. Gone are the women. I don't even have a cat anymore. Some asked about the food- it was OK. But it was portion controled, and institution type entrees. They had entertainment at least once a week, but it was pretty lame. And while no one said much, people left the place, via ambulance, either alive or not, at a regular pace. The staff was OK, and about as good as minimum wage gets you. The turnover was very frequent. It was always somebody's first day on the job. I felt safe there. It was expensive, though. If I had stayed there sooner or later I would have faced not being able to afford to stay there. I don't know if it was just me, but I always felt like it was a temporary arrangement. It didn't seem like home.
 
My father in law loved his time in a nursing home. A woman there thought he was her husband and followed him around all day. He told me he didn't want to hurt her feelings by saying he wasn't her husband. When he passed away her family had to take her to their house until she stopped grieving over his death.
 
My Dad went into a luxury, high-rise, retirement condo that had assisted living services. He took over an abandoned workshop, in the basement, and soon had all of their unused, woodworking equipment, which only he knew how to operate, set up and humming along. He made desks and cabinets for the staff and residents. The workshop looked like his old shop. He truly lived the Life of Riley, most of his life. At the place, he had a steady gal, and several on the side, including one staff member. Good old Dad! He kept kicking it right up until the end, at 85. I miss him, greatly! It's been fourteen years.....
