MY HUSBAND DYED HIS HAIR BLACK AT 78, AND I THINK IT LOOKS ABSURD. SHOULD I TELL HIM TO EMBRACE HIS AGE?

I pondered my options. Should I confront him directly, risking a potential argument? Or should I subtly hint at my disapproval, hoping he’d get the message? After much deliberation, I decided on a more tactful approach.

I started by complimenting him on other aspects of his appearance. “You look so handsome in that new sweater,” I said, trying to steer the conversation away from his hair. Then, I casually mentioned a news article about the trend of older men embracing their natural gray hair. I emphasized how attractive and distinguished it can make a man look.

He listened intently, a thoughtful expression on his face. I could see the wheels turning in his head. A few days later, he surprised me. He had stopped dyeing his hair! He looked refreshed, more natural, and surprisingly younger.

I realized that sometimes, a gentle nudge is all it takes. Instead of criticizing, I had simply presented a different perspective. And in the end, he made the right choice.

A few weeks later, we were out to dinner with some old friends. As we were waiting for our table, a young woman approached us. She complimented my husband on his “silver fox” look and asked him what hair dye he used. He chuckled and admitted that he hadn’t dyed his hair in weeks. The woman was surprised and impressed.

“You should keep it this way,” she said. “It’s so much more attractive.”

My husband beamed with pride. I couldn’t help but smile. It seemed that everyone else could see what I had been trying to tell him all along.

The incident taught me a valuable lesson: sometimes, the best approach is not to criticize, but to guide and suggest. By gently nudging him in the right direction, I helped him make a decision that not only improved his appearance but also boosted his self-confidence.

I recently spent $6,500 on this registered Black Angus bull.

I recently bought this certified Black Angus bull for $6,500.

He would not even look at a cow when I let him out with the herd; instead, he would just eat grass.

That bull was starting to look like more than I had paid for him. In any case, I asked the veterinarian to examine him.

The bull, he observed, was maybe a touch young, but otherwise in excellent health.

I was given certain medications by him to give him once a day.

In just two days, the bull began tending to all of my cows! He even managed to go beyond the fence and mated with every cow owned by my neighbor!

He resembles a machine. I’m not sure what was in the tablets that the veterinarian gave him. Nonetheless, they have a peppermint-like flavor.
