    Certainly NOT! We are all human.We all have feelings & we all desire  companionship in one way or another.Regardless of our age.

    There is no age limit to fall in love ,once your between the age of 9 and 90, good luck.

    there are no boundaries to love. It is ageless, and timeless.

    Very good

    It's not silly for people of ANY age to fall in love whether they are teens, young adults, middle aged or elderly! Everyone needs love...makes the world go 'round!

    shot straight from the hip ole hipster. TU for you.

    Not at all!!   I feel sad for those that don't have a love or who don't fall in love!

    its silly to fall in love as a child, not an adult.. I believe you have the question backwards..

    That's too bad you feel that way. Someone must have put a good hurtin' on you. I'm sorry. regards/yvonne57

    Why should it be silly ?  Some of the best, strongest love comes out of middle age. My late husb was 56 when he met me and we had some wild good times together. He was 58 when we got married, and I was 40   :-) 

    Love knows no boundaries!!Nothing silly about it!

    I really like your answer!!!

    Noooo.....if love comes your way and you are happy grab it and hold onto it.

    It dosent matter what age you fall in love just remember Love makes the world go round I do think love as you get older is more sencable as I think Young love is madness and you dont think things through as you do when you get older good question thoe

    Yes, it's silly.  Absolutely crazy to young people. 


    However, we approach it more with wisdom and intellect.  And we love it.


    A better phrase, to me, is to "grow in love".  Most of us that are older grasp the concept of love a little better.

    hell no ....not even for old people such as myself.....it is great and you tend to know what you really know what you want....

    thanks Yvonne,i am a dyed in the wool cynic!!i practise!!!

    Nope, they actually know what they are doing!


    Youth is wasted on the young!

    What would be silly is to think someone is too old to experience love.


    Let's hope not.  I think I still qualify as middle-aged (even though I get the senior discount at most places.....isn't 60 the new 40?  which would make me 39 for a couple more months)


    To be 100% honest, which I always am here, I pray daily for the opportunity to fall in love with and marry that man.  (The with is very important.  Just loving someone isn't enough for me....gotta be with someone who loves me, too)

    Bob/PKB, I give you a thank you and a thumbs up for your second paragraph. It's exactly how I feel.

    AMEN!

    Not at all!  I admire them.  Also, because of their maturity, they would have a lower rate of divorce.

    Heck no   no silliness there    choice yes   silly no

    let the love keep coming for ever
