    I'm going to be 25 Monday, I know it's not really old but seems like a milestone, like it is old for me or something.. I suppose I'm no teenager anymore.. do people think 25 is old? a whole quarter of a century

    Yeah 25 was a depressing one alright... I was exactly the same.
    Seems like it's all down-hill from here.

    Ah another 15 years and I'm 40. That's when I'll be afraid.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,900 ✭✭✭rannerap


    this threads made me feel a bit better lol im 19 on tuesday and i already feel old:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,698 ✭✭✭InFront


    I started to feel old when I turned 18. Now I'm 21, I feel ancient. It's not really age though, it's just not being as unaccountable as I used to be and my parents expecting more things from me. That reeally sucks. Why can't I just be 17 and play in the park:( ?

    So no OP, you're not old, but you probably just inherited more of that responsibility stuff


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,919 ✭✭✭Bob the Builder


    Put it this way, you've just used the best times of your life, maybe a full quarter of it. Yout only old, if you wasted all those many years of being a "hooligan"

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,258 ✭✭✭✭Rabies


    Ah, 25 is fine. I turned 27 a couple of months ago. Barely hanging on to my mid twenties :(

    it's all downhill after 21 tbh, arguably hitting 18 is where it all goes pear shaped.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,881 ✭✭✭Kurtosis


    Snap OP, my birthday on monday too :D

    I'm only going to be 19 though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,239 ✭✭✭✭WindSock


    You would worry more if you were female and wanting to have a family at some point, biological clock and all that, but if you are male you dont have to think so much about that, however if you want to be famous and immortalised, you only have two years to do so before you overdose on heroin and choke on your own vomit :)

    I'm 22 on the 5th and i'm feeling old
    21 is young sounding but 22 is entering the twenties

    but 25 is mid 20's so your alright...for now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 300 ✭✭neoB


    I'm 24 today with a baby. Even without a baby i'd feel old. so i think 25 is old :/. its just so diff from the age 18 :/.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,972 ✭✭✭patrickc


    it's interesting looking at the responses, all us in out 20's think its going downhill sorta, and the older people responding think it's young..
