What age do you guys start feeling old?

[D_Rufus Rodzilla]

I just turned 42 and feel as good as I did when I was 30. A lot of it really does have to do with how well you take care of yourself. I've had people ask my age and then guess I was in my early to mid 30's. Attitude, a healthy diet, and exercise does make a difference. I gotta admit, it feels good to still turn heads (both male and female) at 42.

I'm 37 and honestly, I feel the same today as the day I turned 18. The plumbing is working fine. My only worry is a heart ailment that recently landed me in the hospital.

I come from a family in which most people live to their late 90's or low 100's. My grandmother is only 88 and she goes jogging twice per day! Most of her friends are using walkers or wheelchairs. I'm sure part of it is genetics and the other part lifestyle. I guess if I want to be like her at 88, I'll need to get a bit healthier and ditch my vices. I'm also going to need one helluva retirement savings plan!

Im 27, i have a baby face so i dont feel or look old. But i am beginning to feel old when i see doctors younger than i am and i'm seeing them for athritis issues. I think they are letting them start medschool at 12 now.

You are as young (old) as your dick. Ask how it's functioning and you'll get the answer.

Good thing you arent as old as your balls....dicks stay looking youthful and balls look 87 years old.

My grandmother is only 88 and she goes jogging twice per day!

lol That is amazing. I don't even jog at my age.

But i am beginning to feel old when i see doctors younger than i am and i'm seeing them for athritis issues. I think they are letting them start medschool at 12 now.

I can relate to that. I had an older doctor for the longest time, and when he retired I wasn't sure what to do. I found a doctor who was in his late 20's and had only been practicing for a year. I was a little hesitant to go to him at first, since it seemed a little weird going to a doctor younger than me, but I made the right choice. He's so up on what's going on in medicine that it's refreshing. And I can ask him anything and not feel embarrassed about it. I've been seeing him for about 10 years now, and his practice has grown so much that he no longer takes new patients.

At 56 I'm still waiting. Although I just have to look in a mirror to be reminded of my age.

Before I got into the Navy. I felt ok about AGE.." Then as the YEARS went by, I would be on Fire partys and other dutys. My body was getting worn OUT!! Before I left Bahrain, I was hurting in the LEG area. I still do sometimes now. I don't know if it has to do with standing all the time working at the Post Office, RUNNING ( all of the time for PT), Being on the fire team their..." Or maybe ALL!!!! I don't know.." But, now I am married. I really want a FAMILY. But, I don't want to be a OLD parent!!!!!!! My daddy was way older than my momma. The kids thought that he was my darn Grandpa when he took me to school!!!! I have gray hairs popping in and I pick them suckers out!! All of my Military girlfriends have kids that are OUT of pampers. I don't know if I should bring a kid into the world being a old women...."
I was born in 1975....." I won't say the date or month..."

I feel so OLD!!!!!!!! SOME TIMES...."

I'm 28. I feel older all the time.

Part of this is physical differences. I have noticed it significantly harder to lose weight now, and am currently trying to get in shape. Sometimes when I'm having sex and I'm on my third or fourth orgasm my erections can become soft... that never happened when I was 17. I look older than I used to, even though with the right clothes/posture/haircut I can still pass for a teenager sometimes.

Some of this is differences in attitude. The old adage, you are only as old as you feel. Well, I do feel different than I did when I was eight. While this isn't as pronounced, because I think I still can be in some ways like a teenager: very impulsive, eager to try new things, open-minded about most things, flexible, easy going, etc.; there are differences. I'm more mature, less passionate, less prone to falling in love, less excited about new video games coming out or anything else for that matter. Nothing is as new as it once was.

Most of it, though, is just how I am treated. Age has never been a big issue for me when it comes to romance. I've been involved with girls many years my senior and other who were quite a bit younger than me. Yet if I flirt with a young girl now some people think I'm perverted or strange. When was this magic moment that I was supposed to become exclusively attracted to older women and how did I miss it? I was attracted to 19 year olds when I was 18 and that was okay but now that I'm 28 it's weird. I'm not sure how that makes sense. I probably get a little more respect for some of my ideas now than I used to, though when I was younger I was always told I was mature and well-spoken for my age. Now if I get compliments at all nobody mentions my age as part of the qualifier for the compliment. In a lot of ways I think and feel the same as I did when I was 16 or 18 (and in a lot of ways I have changed enormously)... but I never woke up one morning and said to myself "yep, I'm an adult now." I guess I get treated as though I am older than I feel, and this makes me feel older... I suppose eventually the two will catch up? Or maybe the perception of how I should feel will always outpace how I actually do feel.

Im in my 40's and feel better and more alive than when i was in my 20's.age is only a number.

 

[Ethyl]

Dunno. Ask me when i'm old. I'm only 38. No amount of money could convince me to be 18 or 28 again if I had the chance.

 

[naughty]

What time is it? Not yet! :biggrin1: I feel great . I feel sexier than I have ever felt in my life.There is a confidence that comes with getting a few miles on one that can not be beat. I am lucky to have supportive people in my life who I love and love me back so I am not trying to slow down and develop hardening of the attitude until I have to do so! LOL!

 

[tiggerpoo]

I'm 60 and still feel young. My gf is 23 - and that's about how old I feel. The last 10 years have been the best of my life. I go to night clubs, do hip-hop dancing, make love daily. Life is a WOW.

 

[Mr. Snakey]

I felt old the first time a young fella called me 'Sir.'

Bingo! I remember the first time someone called me sir. I think thats when youth dies and reality sets in and we find out we wont live forever. Having said that. I love getting older. I dont feel old at all.

 

[earllogjam]

Old is as old does.

When I need a walker to get around I'll feel old.

 

[Drifterwood]

My Grandmother thinks I am a youngster. True.

 

[Rikter8]

30. I had classmates call me an old man.

I'll let you know, keep me posted on when they move you into the geriatric ward and I'll try to find time to contact you and let you know that there is more to life than worrying about getting or being old.

Turning 50 next year. Still doing all the things I used to do, go for insane off-road rides on the Bike, Sailing, having a good time. Only problem is when you get injured, it takes them bones a little longer to heal.
So you get sharper and spot the shit before it hits the fan.
