Do you feel older or younger - than your age?


luvmykids wrote: Just curious. I'm almost 34, which to me with reference to me, sounds old. But I don't think of others in that age range as "older", and I feel a whole lot younger most of the time. It surprises me that I'm in my mid 30's b/c I still think of myself as a young thing. I guess it's all relative.

moped replied: I swear I am 20 - 25, but in reality I am 34

luvmykids replied: I'm glad to hear that .... it means I'm not just delusional lol

moped replied: Nope, I seriously feel like a very young girl - LOLOLOL

Edward's Mommy replied: I just turned 22 on January 15 and I still feel like I did when I was in high school.

luvmykids replied:
Ok, now I'm starting to feel older .... rolling_smile.gif

5littleladies replied: I was just thinking about this, and I thought I was the only one. I'm 27 and I swear I don't feel any older than I was when I was in high school. Sometimes the girls call me mom and I'm like "What? Who?". wacko.gif

kimberley replied: it depends on the day. most of the time i feel younger.

TANNER'S MOM replied: Umm.... if you ask me..and I am drinking..or not thinking clearly.. 28 pops to my mind. IN my mind I am forever 28.. I have no idea why..

I am 32... but since losing so much weight I feel 28 again..

Strange I know!

MyBlueEyedBabies replied: most days I feel a lot older. Definately puts me in the minority. I swear I told dh never to let me make friends with anyone to my age again (24)because they all act like children. My best friends are 30+

akelly replied: I feel very old to be having my first child at 37...the age I'll be when baby arrives. Hubby's already talking about number 2 - we're gonna have to move fast! rolling_smile.gif

3xsthefun replied: It just depends on the day. Somedays I feel same as I did in highschool and other days I feel older then my husband. He is 36 and I will be turning 25 in a few months. But then again my husband acts like a 3 year old sometimes.

msoulz replied:
LOL, they all act about 3 sometimes!!

I am 39 and I forget how old I am until I look in the mirror, so I guess I must feel much younger!

MomToMany replied: I feel like I'm still a teenager! I can't believe I'll be turning 30 later this year ohmy.gif !

A&A'smommy replied: I just turned 20 and I could almost swear I was still 16.. I think I'm going to freak out when I turn 21 because I don't feel like I should be rolleyes.gif

Daisymom2 replied: That really depends on if my kids are in anti-christ mode that day or not....But anyways....
I'm 33 but feel 23 most of the time and definately act 18! I just don't care. I try,
lol rolling_smile.gif

ions_momma replied: Im 23 and sometimes I feel older, and sometimes I feel my age. I guess I just feel older because alot of people my age are till going to parties and drinking every weekend and obviously I cant do that

Mommy2BAK replied: I'm 21 and I'd say some days Blakely makes me feel about 40 but usually I feel 21.

My3LilMonkeys replied:
This is kinda how I feel - I'm 23 also. My sisters are 20 & 25 and are out in the clubs 4-5 days a week so sometimes it makes me feel old, KWIM? On the other hand there are days when I feel like I just graduated HS!

MamaJAM replied: I've always felt older than I really am.....sometimes thats a bad thing - other times its good.

MyLuvBugs replied: Depends on the day. smile.gif Somedays I feel like a little old lady in my 80's, and other days I feel like I'm 16 again.

MyBrownEyedBoy replied: I am 29, I'll be thirty in June. And I feel my age. Especially in my area where most first time moms are right around 20. I live in a highly Mormon area, they have families young. Nothing against that, it just wasn't for me. Most moms my age here have at least 3 sometimes 5+ kids. I just started later. Sometimes it bugs me to have everyone assume that Logan must have older siblings, but most of the time, I just take it in stride.

C&K*s Mommie replied: I will be 28, soon. But I feel a quite bit older than that. I must admit though it still feels good for people to think that I am younger than I really am. happy.gif

holley79 replied: I guess all of you are just use to having your children around. rolling_smile.gif

I'm only 26 and I swear I don't feel a day over 90. LOL

Seriously though. I feel about right for my age. Every now and agian a little spunky. blush.gif

CAMSMOM1 replied:

When I'm with my son, I'm 5 years old. And other times I feel like I'm 50. Depends on the day, and where I'm at & what I'm doing.

I'm going to be 24 next month. But I do feel like I"m in my 30's. Not that-that's a bad thing, I just feel ahead of the times compared to most of my friends.
But I can still be the wild, crazy, silly Annie that I've always been.

I think I have a split personality! One min I'm 5 years old, and another minuete I'm 35. But never my real age! emlaugh.gif

TeagansMom609 replied: Im 23 and I feel way older. All of my friends who I don't even talk to anymore because I have nothing in common with, are all still going out everynite to the bar, getting drunk and having fun. Me, on the other hand, the most exciting time of the day for me is driving to the grocery store or the mall. dry.gif Instead of driving a cute little red sports car like I used to, I have a family car and looking to buy a minivan. Someone shoot me! wacko.gif

punkeemunkee'smom replied: I am 28-most of the time I feel younger than that. It usually shocks me if I think about my age! I should still be 17 or 18! rolling_smile.gif

Lexismama replied: Im only 22 so i definatly feel a tad older

~~*Missi*~~ replied: I am 26 and i guess feel 26 LOL

I dunno there are days when my knees hurt ( i was a national speed skater had 4surgeries) I feel like a 90yr old lady LOL

mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied:
smile.gif I always forget you're 24 Lisa, not that it's a bad thing, but I forget I'm so much older than you (I'm 31) because you're so mature and I was out partying every night when I was 24! LOL!

I feel my age most days. rolleyes.gif

Maddie&EthansMom replied: I feel younger than my age. I'm having a hard time coming to terms with turning 29 this year. happy.gif I'll see someone my age and think "Do I look that old??" People tell me I look the same as I did in high school. That's good. laugh.gif Or I'll see someone that I think is much older than me and they turn out to be younger. ohmy.gif

Nothing makes me feel older than when I hear about someone I used to babysit graduating from HIGH SCHOOL and entering COLLEGE!!!! Oh come ON!!! I can't be THAT old! The years sure do catch up with you in a hurry don't they?

On Valentine's day Scotty and I will celebrate our 10 year anniversary of the day we met. That also makes me feel old. 10 years. I was 18! emlaugh.gif blink.gif I remember it like it was yesterday. I was such a baby then.

Then again, I've always been older than my age. Always had older friends, etc. tongue.gif

mom21kid2dogs replied: I definately act/feel younger (I guess dunno.gif since I've never lived in anyone else's skin) than 46. My sister is 13 years my junior but I'm the one who takes the kids sledding for 4 hours and goes to bed at 11:30 (compared to her 9). She's always telling me that I have to be her "younger" sister. My mom was always like this, too, so it seems pretty normal to me.

BAC'sMom replied: Depends on the day....some days 25 some days 75!

But I will say that when people find out my age they always say I look younger. That helps alot.
