My wife is 45 and last week, in a span of less than 24 hours, got braces put on her teeth and also picked up her first pair of prescription reading glasses from our eye doctor.
The strangeness of that just hit me now. How bizarre of a one-two punch is that?!?!

She probably wants her teeth to look nice.
I had to get tri-focals a few years ago. It's just a fact of aging.
She sounds very normal to me. In fact, her trying to look nice is a sign that she cares about her looks....a good thing.
Cheers, Dave |

Wife=*your* old lady(hippie-talk for GF/spouse)- you might not want to call her that, though
Everyone in my family has glasses; at 44 I got my first pair; I was amused.

+1 for taking care of her looks and caring. |

Playing up the "teenager" angle, however, might be fun and exciting for both of you.  |

When you think about it-being around your wife is kind-of-like being on an adventure!

Right now, I'm thinking about a lovely woman in a library with pigtails and horn rimmed glasses - and this poster behind her desk:
BATGIRL WAS A LIBRARIAN!

EDIT: Batgirl was smoking hot. |

You know the rules.
Posting a thread asking people to figure out if your wife is
'hawt' doesn't work without the requisite pics of said lady
with her glasses on. Whatever else she wears is optional,
but this is a PG site.
So, I can't comment without a pic or two a la Mikebass whose
wife smoked the site. My monitor has a burn mark on the side
from her pic. Just sayin' ...

Old Lady....who cares, a nation of whimps worries about someone elses relationship through the eyes of PC views. If your wife has no problem with it, then continue, if she does, duck! |

45 is a number or a small vinyl recording with a big hole in the middle. On some women that number means way old, but on others it means still sizzlin'. It depends on attitude more than anything, I think. |
