When did you realize you're becoming "old"?

Tombi!

In quotations because it's not about age but rather you do things that you would consider old people to do.

For me it's now. The kids outside are playing. It's 8:30 at night and all I can think of "will their parents ever tell them to go to fecking bed. I want my peace".

When according to RTEs 'do you masturbate' survey, I dont fall into what they consider a young adult.

That or when I started bumping into younger relatives, in the pub who I used to baby sit.

When the young one in for work experience thought I was cool. Chatting away, she was asking all sorts of questions. "How old are you" she asks. I tell her. "No way? Really!? You look so young."

When i get paid and go do grocery shopping. I used to wait up to be paid so as I could check out my asos shopping basket, mere minutes after the money went into my account.

When I go out and wake up plastered the next day because my poor body can't keep up.

When I wear flat shoes out because my knee/back hurts.

OH you can go and bollocks with that fact. I was happy not knowing 18 years old were born back in 1998.

When breaking wind went from being a pleasant relief to a source of doubt and concern

The Point Break remake made me feel really old. I went to see it, against my own better judgement and felt like standing up in the cinema and screaming at all the teenagers that this man on the screen was not Bodhi, he never would be Bodhi and they need to all go home and download the original at once.

Also, my Dad used to play 50's and 60's music in the 80's and 90's all the time and I would always say something like 'Ah Dad, play something else beside's those golden oldies all the time will ya'. Now I imagine he must be looking down laughing at me as I drive around listening to 80's and 90's music.

Just tonight when I went on facebook. A friend added me to a group of young wans talking about beauty stuff. They're all so nice to each other and concerned with safe spaces and positive vibes only. I felt so old when I I just thought 'Aww isn't that nice now, when I was young it was merciless'

I have back problems following an accident and Get really bad times, few weeks ago I was going through a really bad patch and when getting out of a chair I thought "a walking stick would be great just now" I had it thought without realising and a shiver went through me like a wind from the artic. I couldn't unthink it and was disgusted with myself, makes me a bit sad. I'm only 43
