Have you ever cried about your age?

I haven't.
Not yet anyway. ;(
 
Haha! Yes.... For some weird reason on my 30th birthday I was really depressed. It must have been a sign, because later that year my health took a major turn for the worse. Since then, I'm grateful for every year I have!
 
No, I'm enjoying every year. I seem to get happier and more content as I get older, so I imagine I'll be ecstatic in a few more decades, rather than tearful. ;))

Lol, not yet. So far I've liked my 30s waaayyyy more than my 20s, even if my butt is bigger.
 
Daily
 
Nope. There are times when I think I could have/should have done certain things by this point in my life, but I've never cried about how old I am.
 
No, but I did find 29 really hard...not sure why though.
 
Not yet!! :praise:
 
Yeah, when I was too young to get served in a bar.

Post a recent pic, we will tell you if you look old. Methinks you have great genes, and still look like a youngin!!!!

And ya owe me for this compliment big time!!!!! :naughty: :wavey:
 
Hell no! Getting older sure beats the alternative.
 
Not me. My philosophy is: If you can't control it, ignore it.
 
Are you kidding?? The older I get the more I laugh. I think age impacts those of us who were heavily invested in youth/beauty, more. I never got my self-image from my looks and so when they started to go, it was like, well....whatever. (To an extent of course - no one wants to think she's ghastly) But getting upset at 30? No. Forty didn't phase me either. Impending 50 is getting my attention, but I don't think my response to it will be weeping. Just more introspection and contemplation of my mortality, and more putting away of the dross.
 
Not at all!

I could have written that.
 
I'll be honest, I wasn't thrilled at hitting 50. I didn't cry, but I didn't exactly rejoice either. But I'm working on counting my blessings and enjoying life. I have a lot to be thankful for, so I'm trying to focus on that.
 
For the most part I dont pay much attention to age, but for some reason the big 50 is bugging me...I will be 50 in December...I think whats bugging me the most is I need to change my life and I mean drastically, but I am too scared to do it....and then of course my health issues are getting scarier every year that goes by.....once again I can only fix that as well ;(
 
Crying over it...no. Upset over it...yes. This is currently happening. Everyone keeps reminding me that in September I will be 30. I'm not pleased. I'm not sure why. I'm getting married in December, I recently got some good news on my job, we will be trying for a baby after the wedding. So 30 equals lots of good things for me, yet I feel sad about turning 30. ;(
 
I once cried when I thought I was madly in love with an Israeli boy after having a very long and very "deep" conversation about life, only to be rejected by him when he found out I was 15. ;( I was quite heartbroken, and I wished I was older.
 
I had a total meltdown once during finals week in college, when trying to rent a car, and discovering that it's one of the most troublesome, expensive ventures and under-25 can take ;(

To his credit the rental guy seemed genuinely sorry, though baffled.
