"50 year old ugly guy and 20 year old hottie". So many people complain that it isn't believable because the mismatched looks and age.

It had NOTHING to do with their looks. They connected on a deeper level, maybe even a once in a lifetime connection.

This is so true. I've had this kind of connection a few times in my life, and it wasn't always with someone I found physically attractive or suitable as a partner. Sometimes you just click with someone for whatever weird reason, and it can be eye-opening to acknowledge it and explore it, even if it's just a conversation for a few minutes. We all go through all the ages of life, if we're lucky enough. We shouldn't close ourselves off to human interactions just because others aren't at the same stage we're currently in.

That being said, Bill Murray is so talented, funny, and brilliant that I think he's sexy no matter what his age!

AMEN

I have found there are typically two types of people that cannot comprehend how looks and age do no matter.

One of the types has a chance to change and the other does not.

It's the world we live in.

Relax, all right? My old man is a TV repairman, he's got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it!
