Hi, it's me James Junior. It's fifty plus not live here on JILJ Media, and I have my fan blowing on me because it's just hot as f here in Los Angeles, um, and I'm hanging in there as usual. I always come to you guys to talk to you about life, to share the thoughts are on my mind on this show. So the show is kind of about sharing thoughts comical and otherwise by my life share with you, and then you guys have been so wonderful to respond and share parts of your
life with me. In terms of what I talk about, being fifty plus is not easy. Sometimes so it's really easy and signs of nothing. At other times it's not easy. And I've talked about dating on the show and other shows for a lot. I've talked about sex but lack of it. Let's talk about all kind of stuff on these shows. And because in Sport I talk about wait. I've talked about age. I've talked about family, my mom, I step dad, talked about by Bills Pauliar. They're talk
about everything on the show, and I'm gonna continue doing that. It's not always that's what I always do. I continue doing that. My frenel polish, which is I need to get you to get better ones whatever. Um, but it's not everything on here, and I just it's been kind of actually cathartic for me on some level, just to share my thoughts. And it's a time capsule where I'm at, so I know life isn't static and things change. So it's why I never say never to anything. But there
are things. I'm getting tired and I'm done, and for me, I am retiring the whole dating thing. I'm retiring at I in LA. It's just it's just not working for me whatsoever. I don't know. I feel like it's me. Um. I'm no problem making friends. I have no problem making acquaintances. I a problem making colleagues. I have so many wonderful new adventures happening professionally and friendship wise. But nothing romantic, nothing sexual,
nothing at all. Nothing. I've tried the apps apparently I must. It's it's one of those things when you start looking into yourself and go, okay, let's see at this age, UM, I was started talking to my sister who's around my age. Q. They're just things that were so important that just lose importance to get older. It maybe guess you're older understand this, but your fifties. But there are things you want, but you mean I have the same energy to put out for them. And also sometimes there's
things where you realize it's you. Sometimes it is you. And so many guys are so wonderful and nice and been so supportive on this journe that some friends have been wonderful. But I'm getting to that point. At this point of my life right now, I'm gonna I need to focus on my jobs. I need to focus my careers. I'm you know about my mom. I have a house here, I'm trying to get together a guard and someone stole my tree in my yard. I'm trying. I got so I mean
looking around. I haven't even made my bed in like three days because I lost all the sheets. But I'm so tired. I even met my bed. I have projects. I'm working on books, music, I have some's going on. Even I would love to fly in love. I'd love to have somebody. Um. I thought I found a couple of people that didn't work out that way. Um, But I'm just like, in terms of trying to even get to you a dating situation, I'm tired of talking about
So I'm retired. I talk about dating no more. I'm not talking about sex anymore. Well, I mean I'll make fun of course on shows. But I am I am as of today, which is we see this July twenty first, like twenty three cord of this, I am. I'm out. I'm out any of the apps about any stuff. I am done getting to be depressed and stressing out over um trying to find somebody. I'm just done. I'm totally done. And there you go. I'm I'm just letting
it go because I feel like it's me and that's what's going on. I'm a common denominator, So don't feel sorry for me like that. It's not not that. I just I just I'm very honest. It has to be me. If I'm not I'm doing meeting people all the time, I'm not, so it has to be me, clearly, So let it. I'm letting it go, and it's just it's funny. And then in some ways
it's wonderful. As you get older, you get to know more about yourself, whether you mean until the people are not as through a story, but you know, I tell I tell everything, So I mean I'm always like I'm find things out about myself. I am not perfect. I never said I am, never said I was. Um, I know what I can do, I know what I'm capable of, I know what I I know what I like and I don't like all those kind of things. UM.
And so it's that part's free, that part's kind of okay. I'm getting into who I am these days, and I who I am and who I and who I'm not. Um, I know what I'm willing to do, what I'm willing not to do. And it's just it's in the long run, no, everybody's be fine, whether I'm dating or hospital life. The world's will keep turning. It's like, I know what they're gonna stop because
I'm not. I'm not. I'm not dating or anything. But for those guys out there who are older and who are kind of who I'm maybe in the same boat as I am, I understand your frustrations. I understand anything by side look at myself. You should look at yourselves first, see what's going on, it was anything you're doing to any blockages or anything you have going on, look yourself honestly and you know, and if it's not you,
there's not you. You know then you know, maybe it's the city you live in, maybe it's maybe it's who you're looking for all that stuff, And so I advocate always checking in with yourself, and that's actually a bigger issue for me. I'm always checking in with myself and seeing where I'm at in life, what am I doing, What's going on? How am I handling things? And I was like, this year, most guys know,
this year has been a very emotional, stressful year for me. It has been I'm when I go to a doctor, Nick speaking, it's gonna be like maybe like you're high blooper, you have high blood pressure? Yes, I do, because I so much stress going on my life. I can't even it was crazy, But that's exciting stuff coming a second half of there's kind of stilly up for a second half of twenty twenty three, and
it began twenty twenty four, so we'll see how that goes. But we are retiring at James is now where it's my gabble, there's my gab Well, we are my gun. This is gonna ben official. I'm done talking to my friends about him. I'm done. I'm done talking about all this stuff. It's just it is this this ridiculous shifts that fell floor at my gabble.

And again, Lava's are in our fifties and sixties and seventies understand this part too. So anyway, that's why I want to share with you guys. You talk amongst yourselves.
