53 did seem old to me then. Sometimes feel old when I see someone in their 30 and realize that I am old enough to be their father.
When I was 19, I was in the bar and would always notice this creepy old man checking out all the young girls. I was out with my (now ex) husband a few years ago and I realized he was the creepy old man sitting at the bar! Lol
There's just something not fair here. First, I was a creepy kid, then I was a creepy young man. Now I'm a creepy old man.
Come on!! How does a guy get a break??
You Bet!!! But then, I recall having more respect for those who were my
current age group.....some were, some were not.
I fear that nowadays..there are those in our current age group who
tend to be very insecure and loud...spewing hate whenever there is a
camera or an audience. {Present company excluded}
P.S. Remember to Vote.
Despite what the HATERS say...your VOTE Does Count!
This is every generation...and I feel a little badly for the millenials more than I do for our generation anyway...things that were affordable and reasonable 20-30yrs ago are almost totally out of reach today. Wages are basically the same but costs of living have increased not to mention "extras" like private school/college are astronomical.

When I was a teenager i thought people in their 30's were old and that people my age (pushing 70) was prehistoric
I could never imagine being as old as I am now. ( I'll be 72 in December). I thought my grandma was incredibly old, but she was in her 40s when I was little. I would be thrilled if I could go back to my 40s now. When I was a teenager, I wondered if I would live long enough to see the year 2000. It seemed very impossible to live thG long. I was 54 in 2000. It doesn't seem old at all now.
Seventy-five....can only remember my teens when I'm dreaming that I'm still in my forties dreaming of when I walked around with an erection all day....seldom want to wake up..
Hell I see it as old now, but do I feel old...not really and yes I did see.my age as old when I was in my teens
Well ... I am 64 ... so my teens ended long ago. My parents became grandparents in their mid 40s,; which was the norm. Some people at my current age were already great-grandparents. My own grandparents were my current age when I was a teen. People above the age of 60 were not just old, they were very old indeed.
Honestly I didn't see any other age then. That's good though something to think about I thought the other night about while living in my parents house the rules I broke got bigger and more casual until I was casually rolling my own cigarettes standing under the car port smoking paranoid like it was nothing...I wouldn't understand an adult because I have no kids and don't care about anyone else's
I did not expected to reach 60 to tell you the truth. I remember wondering what we were going to do at 40 to get pussy? The answer was... prostitutes(according us 13-14 year olds). Well... so ignorant of me... I got more poontang on my 40's than any other decade. After that... does not mattered how old I was going to get. 40's were the bomb. 50's were glory days after the battle was over. On my 60's I am resting to charge again on my 70's.
I never thought I'd make it to 18, let alone my age now. So absolutely!
I don't think so. I think I always thought old was like 70s-90s when bodies start to most noticeably seem to atrophy.
Eh, not really. I'd say old is when someone reaches 70.
I can remember my mamaw's 38th birthday, I was 8. When I was a teenager she seemed ancient, but she was only in her 40's. Now, here I am with a son that's the same age that I was when my grandmother was the age I am now and I realize age is what you make of it. She acted old, so she was. I don't, so I'm not.
