Do you feel old?

gimmepie August 23rd, 2021 5:19 AM

Not even thirty yet and I feel like I'm 72 some days :')

Starlight August 23rd, 2021 5:24 AM

Not inside no! I have the soul of someone much younger than me!

I still feel absolutely ancient most of the time though, due to life being a pain.

Nah August 23rd, 2021 5:43 AM

I feel like I’m over 30 already even though 30 is still a year away for me.

Caite-chan August 23rd, 2021 6:44 AM

I sometimes forget how old I am because of my size or because I act like everyone else. Then they go oh yeah I'm 24 and then I go yeah NOW I feel old.

RadEmpoleon August 23rd, 2021 6:52 AM

I feel fairly "innocent and childish" for my age. That's not a bad thing though. I do feel old when I see 10 year olds with iphone 12s (or other fancy new phones). I didn't get a phone until I was a freshman in high school, and even then, it was my mom's old phone from 2011.

CiCi August 23rd, 2021 7:13 AM

Not particularly. I think it's silly when young people feel "old".

Aslan August 23rd, 2021 7:20 AM

Not at all, I consider my age young and I feel exactly like my age. :P

Megan August 23rd, 2021 7:24 AM

Mentally I'm very much a child. Physically my age definitely starts to show...

Some days, but not in general no.
Like today I've had a sore feeling in my upper back all day that wasn't there yesterday and will probably be gone again tomorrow.
When I get these random things I tend to feel old yes.

Tsutarja August 23rd, 2021 10:53 AM

I'm not even 30 and I'm getting gray hairs

Devalue August 23rd, 2021 11:02 AM

Feels young. Probably helps to be among older people. Demonstrates superior vision and hearing regularly.

moon August 24th, 2021 11:51 AM

I don't feel particularly old, to be honest. I feel grown-up, and I have no idea when that actually happened. But it's not uncomfortable, and I don't really wish I was younger. So, no :)

Sothis August 24th, 2021 12:28 PM

No.
There's people thinking their lives are over or they're failures because they haven't done x thing by x age. It started as jokes but we need to stop spreading the idea that 25+ is "old". I know it's usually just people being smartasses but some people get legit thinking they're failures.

Alex August 24th, 2021 4:09 PM

yes kind of

Figure August 24th, 2021 5:50 PM

Had a moment the other day that made me feel old as fuck. Super Troopers will be 20 years old next year and that made me feel ancient. My older sister is turning 30 next year and then I am the next in the family to turn 30.

Oh my brother and I used to watch that all the time!

colours August 25th, 2021 1:21 AM

the fact that most of my former high school classmates are either married or have kids makes me feel some type of way. maybe that's feeling old, but damn.

Caite-chan August 25th, 2021 3:37 AM

I know sometimes when I talk about stuff back in the day I can feel old. When someone's talking and I think oh yeah that was back in the 90s that doesn't seem that long ago but then you realize that's between 25-30 years ago then it's like DAMN that IS awhile ago. I mean hell it's already been 15 years since I graduated high school but it doesn't feel like it's been that long already.

Bellsprout August 25th, 2021 8:07 PM

I definitely feel the physical difference of age these days, but I honestly don't feel old.

Palamon August 25th, 2021 8:35 PM

Honestly? No, I don't feel old. Unless you tell me how long ago something aired on tv, then I will feel old LOL.
Bleach, for example, being 20 years old? (Even though I couldn't read when it came out)? I feel old thinking it's been out two decades.

But other than that, for my ever day life? Definitely do not feel old. I don't feel 16 or anything (even though I still look it) but I definitely don't feel older than I actually am, that's for sure.

Inky August 29th, 2021 9:00 AM

I won’t feel old until I get a sudden urge to start gardening and start standing to watch TV

Sheep August 30th, 2021 5:04 PM

the moment I turned 30 I started feeling old, fortunately still looking like I'm 18 keeps me feeling sane :D
