When did you realize you were old?

Me: When I would rather stay in on the weekends than going out.

I remember listening to "Lunchtime with the oldies" on the radio while I was at Ft. Meade, Maryland. I was in my early 20s, and they played a song that I loved in high school. I was pissed about that for days! And that was the first time I realized it was really all downhill from there. My middle daughter freaks out about wrinkles and turning 30! I told her "really? Every wrinkle and grey hair I have has your name on it" I may be old, but I don't care! I'm OK with it. My mom died at 45, she never got to meet her grandchildren or see any of her kids get married or any of that other cool "getting old" stuff. Your age is just a reflection of the number of trips around the sun your have made. Don't let your age define you. I may be 60 and my knees make some odd noises and yes I have a few gray hairs but dammit, I put the time in for it. I earned it! I am happy about it because so many don't get that opportunity. JMHO ( or not so H)

When it took two days to recover from a hangover. ?

I agree when staying home and watching Netflix sounds better then going out. But the biggest thing is now I grown a little when I get up off the floor from working on a electrical outlet.

2

When I noticed that the majority of the people who were adults when I was a small child are now dead.

2

When the kids at work who are half my age bitch about being old, I tell them to STFU. I'm not old yet, even if my back sometimes tries to tell me otherwise.

I'm 52, and I still haven't realized it. Hopefully I never will!

I am afraid that you will at some point in your aging process. Growing old is not the problem. The complications along the way are.

@jlynn37 I'm hoping to die before I realize......or ACT like I'm old.

@AzVixen52 Growing old is not to be despaired of. It is a privilege not given to everyone.

@AzVixen52 I do agree with your statement and I feel the same.

It is as I had suspected, I have been old for many decades. How does this happen?

When I went out and tried to pick up a 20ish young woman and she give me the look plus a EeWW! ?

When I was admiring the skills of cute little middle schoolers in a marching band parade, then realized they were university students. Ooops.

When I could no longer have sex twice in quick succession!

Probably not the first but last weekend Iwas eating near a hotel and saw a LOT of attractive teenage girls and thought "these are kids" ..

Old? I still think I am a kid, though my body and some othe prople point out otherwise. I have a 9 year old daughter who is too often mistaken as my grand daughter. I was at the park with her and another parent with her kids and additedly she looks young next to me. But another little kid asked is she could play, being a parent she tried to decline and the kid said "you could ask your dad, pointing at me"
THAT is when I realized I was old.

If you think your too old then you are.

Most days I haven't gotten there yet. Maybe when I'm 70 I'll think I'm old.
