How to avoid becoming a boring middle-age Taiwanese man

Got some thought after reading Eric’s article Monster Child.

As my age adding up, most of the male friends I met due to whatever reasons are mostly close to my age or more than 40+. In Taiwan, people love having so many groups for no meaning, since I was invited to join some groups, I start to realized how boring the middle-age Taiwanese man are, and warning myself to not become one of them as my age getting closer to 40…

They love educated people, they have no new creative idea to share with, all the conversations they have are their past “heroic deeds”, they will become really serious if you are being too child like, then he will treat you like he is your dad or teacher, they just can’t accept anything that doesn’t follow their rules, and it is ironic that most of them don’t even know you in real life or see you in person.

I think having a child’s mind is what helping me get close to kids and babies easily; I can play around with them, and win their favor without putting too much efforts. And I also guess being friendly like a child is why people love to having conversation with me without having too much pressure.
