What do you find yourself avoiding more as you get older?

Same as you and I used to be such an extrovert! Not anymore...Much prefer dogs to people.

Negative people, phishers, bullies, smokers and bossy people.

I adore Eduardo, our Fawn French bulldog with a black mask. He is going to be three years old in December.

Driving at night for me,

Same!

Same here too ! excepting family and friends !

Oh and Doctors !!!

Random Google images - me too. Perhaps we should form a society, but then again....!

Travelling during peak times. Shopping on Saturday.

Going out after seven o’clock. Steep downhill slopes. Company in the evenings. Large meals. Cleaning and polishing the outside of my boat (it needs re-painting, it looks dreadful 😱). Going shopping - something I used to love and could ‘shop ‘til I dropped’ but now I’ve had enough after half an hour 😆. Goodness, that’s quite a list!

Crowds
People
Housework

Night driving
Driving long distance
Cooking
Socialing in darker evenings

Escalators going down. I don't know if it's my age or my glasses, but I can't cope with stepping on to those moving steps. I'm fine going up.
Also driving at night. I just get blinded by the headlights.

I love people and I am busy starting to build new social networks in the town we moved to last year. It is 70 miles from our previous home, so no carry-over.

Trolls.

Having to attend events i don't really want to.
People apart from family and close friends
Driving at night or even in the day....far to much traffic that's always in a hurry.
Going out at night .....I like my evenings at home.
Entertaining ....far too much hassle
Christmas.....too false
The news....depressing
I'll stop now but there is more!!! 😳😳

People. Simples...

The news.
I look at the headlines on my iPad but don’t listen to the never-ending news reports on Radio 4. It’s like school history lessons - wars and politics, wars and politics.
I haven’t many years left and am not wasting time on anything nasty if I can avoid it.

Anywhere where there are no toilets.
Having to stay away from home.
Funeral adverts.
People who tell me they are going to vote Reform.

Confrontation, both in person and with strangers on the internet.

Worrying about things outside my control, feeling obliged to have an opinion on complex matters when full facts are unknown and information sources are all biased. I tend to see both sides of an argument and think that no one single answer suits the problem.
Oh, and idiots!

I am intolerant of mean people these days the ones who are just miserly but have money. I spend mine and enjoy doing lots of different activities. I don’t get the retirees who won’t have a coffee out, or treat themselves. HMRC and their offspring will enjoy spending it after they have gone, more years behind us than in front of us. At 64 I know that if I am still here in my 80s I won’t won’t/ be able to do as much as I do now.

Going out at night.
Late nights..
Holidays.
Parties.

Parties although I haven't been to one for years. Flying. Driving. Don't do either any more.

People who don’t bring any joy to a situation.
Cold weather - give me 80° every day
Equipment at the gym - I do a lot of classes but find the rest pretty boring (unless I’m reading my kindle on a treadmill).
Not an avoidance really but my tolerance levels have plummeted and instead of being a people pleaser I’m very happy to show some belligerence now and then 😁

Yes people especially those who want to give me a complete rundown of their doctors,hospital appointments and illnesses and symptoms
