I might add a old woman.
Hang in there, alot of us didn't start flying until late in life, I was 63. I was one of those that had / have a long and frustrating learning curve, started flying in Dec. 2007 and following many crashes and some seriouse depression problems, quit in Sept 08. Started back in Nov 09 with a new club and a very good trainer. He put me on a buddy box for about three weeks and I got some confidence. I have crashed 4 or 5 times since but all have been repairable. No crashes for about 2 months now. Don't give up if you like RC flying, just take your time.

If you don't mind me asking, how did you get involved in RC flying?
