    I would love to talk to some ‘older’ people if anyone wants to chat. Ps - I’m 35, so anything above that is older :)

    How old is old?

    Let x stand for your current age so that old = x+10.

    Unless you’re especially insecure and then it’s x-5.

    Or if you’re an “age ain’t nuthin but a number” person, in which case the formula irrelevant.


    I am 37 but my soul age is a lot older and wiser. ;)

    You’re at that sweet spot. Coming out of the boring 30’s and ready to have fun like a teenager who needs to be in bed by 10.

    I am 39 and try not to refer to myself as "old" because I don't wanna offend anyone else but I didn't really expect to live this long and I feel ancient

    I’m 38 so not really “old” but not young either. Should I start a middle age thread? Lol
