I am hoping for some insight...My father-in-law is 92.I blame a lot on his age,but some of it I just do not understand..He lost his wife almost 3 years ago..I have known him for 5 years..He is woman crazy..He is always looking for a woman..Even when my mother-in-law was alive he was always goo goo for women..Which I found disrespectful..He never acted like he was very greatful for her..She was very upset with him,on the way he acted..He is very forgetful,,and loves to be negative about everything and everybody....Still drives,and is very well, except a rash he cannot get rid of.. by the way I feel he should not be driving too..He repeats the same stories about women all the time..Made up lies about me,and had to tell everyone..He is a Christian,but I believe he forgets how a Christian acts...I have to stay away from him as much as possible..I get so mad at him..He is never greatful for anything we do for him..We live on a farm,we live above him,so we take the most care of him..Anyway do you think he has a illness or is he just a Jack___....thanks..
I also should say the only important things going on is him and his stories..if you try to be nice,he says you are sucking up..I am at witts end with him..My husband thinks he has lost his mind.

If your father in law, has always been this way, I would say it is part of his personality. If his lusty speeches have increased dramatically, it would be best to speak with his physician. People sometimes change when they get older, and maybe remember themselves in a much more youthful way. I hope some peace can be restored to the house. ginnie

He does act like a teenager...So you really think that's just his way??? We been saying maybe he is ill....thank you

I think sometimes when people age, they think of themselves as younger. Think about how he was all his life, and look at the changes through those eyes. Some get stubborn and mean. Keep a journal of behaviors that you think might be over the top and show it to his doctor. I wish you all the best. ginnie

great idea thanks

He is worse..to the point where I have to stay away from him..he is so negative that it upsets me..I have RSD and he puts me over the top.My BP was going nutts.I still feel he has something wrong besides age..He acts like a stud muffin..He is 92 and wants to find women to marry.He says he has girlfriends,but the truth he scared them all away.he is so negative ,and too fast ,,We take care of him the most my Dear Husband gets his mail,takes it in or out,gets news paper for him too.Cleans out the snow etc..No thank you,no praise,,just his daughters are so good to him..This really hurts my husband.I was making meals and things but all he wants to do is run me down..He is very forgetful,repeats often,talks to himself a lot.This man drives me crazy..Thanks just needed to vent..He makes everyone think the worst of my Husband and I..I am so tired of this.Gossips about everyone and everything.I want to confront him,but my husband says don't..My thoughts are I do not have anything to lose..I just hate sitting back listening to all the lies and negative comments..
