    I'm 57 and I'm pretty sure I'm old. I must be because my "baby" is 25! Seems only few years ago when I was 25. I can't wait unitl l reach 60 though. At my church 60 is a senior citizen and every week there is a new senior citizen of the week. The senior citizen of the week gets a candy bar and people send cards to them. Ok, the candy bar isn't healthy but once in a while for a special occasion is okay. :bigsmile: I can't wait to be senior citizen of the week. :bigsmile:

    Old is as old as you feel!

    I'm younger than my children and their ages are 19, 18, 16 and 11.

    I am 23 and teach a theology group, one of my college students sent me this because my google + account had captain planet as the picture

    "Haha your old, Captain Planet came out the year before I was born. Do you remember the first season of this? Was Reagan in office when you were born? Think about this, when Carly, Maura, JP, Nick, and Mike where born, the Soviet Union didn't exist.

    Just a list of things that might make you feel old"

    Gotta love 'em haha
    That's cruel. I voted for Reagan when I was 18.

    You are only as old as you feel. I am 31 but feel 18! SO maybe we should change our age to how we feel?

    The definition of "old" changes every year for me, since I can't seem to stop aging and I am definitely not old! lol

    Honestly, I never thought of anyone younger than my grandparents as old, and they're 87 and 95.

    It seems that more and more, the newbies here at MFP are low 20's. Yay for you all, and welcome aboard! But damn, I feel old! lol
    I feel the same way when I read some of the comments. I think, "How old is this person"? Then realize they're much younger than I, and although 44 isn't "old", I have realized how much we mature as we age.
    Being young doesn't necessarily equate immaturity. Neither does being old make you mature.

    I'll consider myself old the day AFTER I die. Then, it's official.

    I just turned 40. I'm still trying to figure out how I blinked and I was 40. Hope the next 40 years go a lot slower!

    it does hurt to hear the hotties that are in their early 20's say "she was older...like 30" ouch. that hurts.

    I really *am* 29. But I'm actually quite looking forward to 30. My twenties have proven to be a bit of a *****. Time to make some good decisions and get on with it.

    I think you're only as old as you feel. A year ago, I probably felt 10 years older than I do today.
