When did you realise you were getting old?

LH Pathe

It's quite a dramatic jump though adolescence from kid to er - kidult no wonder we tend to feel old at such a young age we need time to settle onto ourselves. once them hormones have settled and distilled it takes decades so stop trying to jump the queue, tykes..

Happened me for the first time this year.

Had a few days stubble and was about to shave after brushing my teeth and seen a bit of toothpaste on by stubbly chin on the right just below my lip but it wouldn't come off. Then I noticed the same on left just below my lip and thought: 'That's weird having two bits of dried toothpaste that won't .. ' and then it hit me .. it's white hair, I'm turning into santa claus :eek::eek:

ohh daddy Nollaig..:)

When you go upstairs to get three items and come down with only two, then you realise you forgot the third thingamy and say to yourself "Ah feck it I'm not facing them stairs again."
That's a combination of muscle fatigue and alsheimers

When my Year of Birth doesn't appear on the drop down. It's a long lonely scroll down to 1972:(

Agreed, it's stupid to feel old at 21. I'm 32 and don't feel old. I do groan a bit when getting out of a deep chair, but that's just my back and lack of exercise. I'm far happier now then I was at 21.

I'm not going to fancy grannies, I'm just going to lower my standards to what is (theoretically) achievable.

If 21 is now deemed old op that means 30 should be the new pension age

I'm 21 and while I don't feel old I do have some old moments

Walking in a supermarket and a young kid walks past me, mother goes 'Watch the Lady there'. First time it happened I just stopped and went into shock. Definity means I'm getting older.

Falling asleep at 11pm - sometimes I can hardly make it to 11pm :pac:

I don't drink much anymore, personal choice really, but when I do I'm such a lightweight it's not even funny.

I'm starting to get broody - at 21!! :eek: I keep telling myself I can have kids later, but I don't want to be an old mother ahhhh, my brain is winning a loosing battle at the moment haha.
