How old do you feel?S

Contributor: Destri Destri
I am way, way older than all of ya'all and I feel much younger than my number! It makes me sort of sad to see so many of you feeling older than you are at such a young age. Life is too short and no one gets out alive, so have some fun!

Wisdom! Have some fun, forget about your age. And forget what is expected! I am going to stop getting older this year. It's just not relevant? It means little.

I feel a little younger then my own age. Mainly because I've looked seventeen since I was about thirteen... and now I'm twenty-two and haven't changed >_> Also, at my age I should be living with my boyfriend like we both want, but I'm stuck at home with my parents instead, and that's a long story. I think. ^^;;

I only feel older when I snap and pop when I get up and when I realize how old other things are around me or how long it's been since a certain event happened (The Berlin Wall coming down for example).

I just turned 28 but I feel younger but the big "30" ahead is daunting. I am usually seen as younger.

Definitely feel older.

I probably should have voted 'other' some days it's not so bad, other days I swear I'm falling apart and way older than I really am.

Depends on the day... but in general I feel older than I am. Unless I'm in a good mood and exercising, then I feel younger.

Listening to the "Oldies" channel is like an 80s nightmare now. I'm "officially old" lmao

I feel a lot younger. I'm in my mid twenties and I feel very overwhelmed by life a lot of the time. I feel like I haven't really matured any since I was 15 or so. So I kind of feel like a kid who just got thrown into being an adult sometimes.

When I was 17 I decided I wasn't going to age from that time on, and I pretty much feel and look the same I did when I was 17...my body is 25 but I will stay young and healthy for ever. I love my body and take good care of it. No need for creams!

No matter what situation I am in I feel like I haven't aged since that age. My mind has grown and my body might have gained some years but fundamentally I am pretty much unchanged.

I'm 25... Some days I feel it, but most days I'm too preoccupied with being deliciously insane.

Younger people tend to think I'm younger, and older people think I'm older. Deliciously insane people correctly recognize me as one of their own.

I just talked about this with my boyfriend the other day. I always feel run down and older but I think it is because I don't take good enough care of myself.

It totally depends on the day. Sometimes I feel very young because I haven't accomplished as much as I feel I should have by now. Other days life just gets to me and I feel ancient. My little sister turned 20 recently and that made me feel tremendously old even though I'm only 5 years her senior.

People either think I'm a lot younger or a lot older than I am. It gets a little confusing. Most of my friends are older than I am...but act considerably younger. Then again, I'm friends with a bunch of nerdy, immature guys. I love them though. When I'm with them I sometimes feel like the oldest person in the room.

I can totally relate to this. I've always felt older than my friends, even though they're usually at least a few years older than I am. It gets tiring. I also don't feel like I've accomplished as much as I should have by now. I've had a lot of bumps in the road though. The way I look at it, I've survived more in my lifetime than most people ever will and I'm proud that I came out on top. Try to be positive!

Self-directed positivity has never been my strong suit. But I'll give it a shot.

I feel a lot older than I am. I lived with my roomie (who happens to be my bf of 5 years now) partying, bar hopping, not a care in the world, and holding down a full time job to support my frequent Seattle and Portland drives to having kids.

I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world, but in one month I went from carefree on the college side of town, to moving into a family neighborhood in a nice house. I also had to quit my job because I was on bedrest for my pregnancy and it ended up costing me money to work. It has made me feel insanely older.

umm...other, I suppose. I'm 27 but I feel like I'm the same person I was when I was a teenager - just a bit less impulsive.
I know I look younger than I am - I get carded for everything from tobacco to cough syrup.
I joke that I act like an adolescent boy...
My boyfriend's mother told me that one day I'll have to "grow up" - ha! I told her I didn't think so. She said that if I didn't, I might embarrass my son. LOL
I think that's just a given, regardless of who you are - your children will, at some point, be embarrassed by you.
Yeah, his mom will have funny hair and lots of piercings - he'll survive.

I voted for a little bit older. I am 27 years old, and have been married for 5 years. My wife and I have always acted more mature than our age, and my knees have been bothering me a little bit for years now. Also, my hair started a few years ago to go gray. I suspect a full salt and pepper look by the time I am 35 years old.

It goes back and forth for me. I'm in my last year of college and sometimes I really just feel too old to be in this environment, especially when I'm around first years. Then there are other times I feel like I'm way too young to be where I am in life. I have to start making decisions about what to do after graduation and that scares the bejeezus out of me!

Are we talking how we feel mentally or physically? I am a 20 year old trapped in a 60 year old body. The mind is willing, but the body tells me differently.

I'll be 22 in two months, and I still feel about 17, and not in a good way. I still live at home, I still look like a teenager, and I probably act like one. My teenage years were me trying to act older than I was, and experiencing a lot of things that most people in their 20s and 30s experience. I grew up quickly, and now I'm really regretting it.
