I am now 69 1/2, was Very ill in my early 40's, felt 187 or older for several years!
Every day is freaking WONDERFUL!

I may be the senior member here and I would say when it affects your ability to do the things you could do and enjoyed doing when younger and just took for granted and that includes almost everything. Physical activities, sexual activities, memory activities, Virtually all the 5 senses. Life is still good.

When your mind says, "Oh, wow, that looks like fun."

And your body says, "No. Absolutely not."

When your body hurts more days than when it doesn't

When I see people born grow up and die in my own lifetime .When I see all the deaths of neighbors friends and relatives

It hasn't yet for me

age is always more than a number. Thinking you can base someone's anything other than legality for drinking, smoking, or sex, on age is ridiculous.

I know 50 year olds who I wouldn't trust to feed fish and 18 year olds who hold down 2 jobs while being single parents.

Depends on the day, and the local barometric pressure.

Um, idk what you mean in this post. Can you please elaborate?

Usually in the morning when I'm trying to drag my ass out of bed

not sure what you mean

more than a number ... how ?

You're going to have you elaborate on that.
It's an open ended question.

16 now 66 , age is only measured in time ,time is merely space time curvature, nobody really gives a fuck

My back hurts always from my early thirties so I have some sort of head start I never wanted. as long as I can still draw im ok. I never was much of an athlete. I think it's more the stigma of age and disability. getting older is like a toilet roll, the more you use the quicker you get to the end. the world has changed for the worse.

120..

In my 40s I was at my life's best, fitter then when a teenager, I would say decline had set in by 55, 4 years ago, just lack of energy, since then eyes have packed it in a bit, still don't need glasses to drive, but do mostly on computer and for night reading. Shoulders are not great past 2 weeks, and this does concern me. Also, past 12 months, so many people a decade or more younger than me died.

I stopped caring after 21.

To this point, my age has been irrelevant.
I began a restricted diet in my 20s to save my life, and had to continue due to my immune system being trashed by extreme exposure to DDT in Haiti, thanks to the well-meaning SNEM program that sprayed our homes every year, killing our pets, and ants, which had previously kept bedbugs in check.

When I began eating only natural, whole foods, and dropped processed food and most meat, my health and stamina skyrocketed..I stopped getting the flu, infections, etc. and my kids never even got the sniffles, and were completely calm, except on the rare occasions their Grandma slipped them junk food.

So I continued to have high energy, be totally limber, and be very active. The Thai were mystified that I often chose to walk instead of using my motorbike, and when out on swamp access roads, people often try to give me lifts on their own motorbikes, thinking I need help. They usually only exercise in the evenings and early mornings, by walking around the block, swinging their arms, or doing group exercises to music in public places.

I am sorry. I hope you are doing well

Fifty did it for me. Then another awakening 2 months ago when my mother died from cancer at only 73 !!

When I am no longer capable of doing those physical activities I love to do.

I always been aware of my age as more than a number... No cougars allowed in my life as young buck... biggest difference was she 26 and I 20? and she been eyeing me since I was 16. I just didn't played that as other buddies did and then having to deal with the more mature woman head games and their position of power. I hated when I couldn't find women my age in Crete. But you have to do lemonade with the lemons available. But to me always been aware of my age and her age. Just as now I prefer my age... active as I am. Crazy as she may. It is a personal decision really to be honest and you have to handle what you can handle. I will hate not be able to carry a mature conversation or being used as a piggy bank. I got nothing to prove. Funny... to me height or beauty was never an issue except a few exceptions that I reserve but should be for all of us adults... motivations should be in the front... what do you want? I know what I want... Does she? Are we in same page? For a while I been dating within my generation.

The 50's took a toll on me. When I turned 50 it felt like no big deal. I looked and felt 10-15 years younger. People were shocked I was that old. By the time I hit 60, I felt an looked it. It all caught up to me. I'll be 63 in 5 days. I can still work circles around people half my age and younger at work. I can still light the candle at both ends, but I'm tired. I'm always tired
