i will be 40 next year !!!...am i now officially old ???...middle aged ???..still in my prime ???..past it ???.....mmmmm

Old

you still look all right

40, really?

Well I never would have said (if that is any help)

I will be a mess when I hit 40, not looking forward to it at all!

40's not old! I'm going to be 40 in exactly one month- August 24th- and I feel (& look) great! I'm having a Prince-themed costume party, and I'm going to celebrate!! I teach high school & I look younger than some of the girls walking around the building (& I'm in better shape! )


Enjoy it, man- we have experience, but we're still young enough to appreciate & take advantage of it!

eh, age is a state of mind.

Although I will say, my 16 (soon-to-be 17) year old niece finally said to me the other day "You're getting OLD".




She immediately took it back and yelled I'm kidding! I'm kidding! but there it was. When a teenager calls me old, I think it's finally official.

I remember the day when I realised no-one else was looking at the same cd's as me in HMV. There was groups of teenagers all over the shop but no-one near me

CarrieMpls said:

Oh please...
Teenagers think 25 is old. I hear it all the time at work.
Trust me...

For some things sure.
Keep your job!

im 41, and i feel fuckin great

Not at all Robert

Watch your mouth!!! I'm 40 and I'm still kickin' ass....takin' names....

You are only old if you let yourself feel old! Age is only a number, it does not define who you are! So 40 is nothing, as long as you feel good & young, that's all that matters!!!

Did you beat her? My teens (16 and 15) constantly tell me and my wife that we're old....and after the beatings are over, they recant.....




(no, I don't really beat my kids.....)

thats so true

blackbob said:

No U R not old...they say that ur 40's are the new 30's these days so no worries dude! Ur 29 not 39 according to the times

If I'm not old at 48, you ain't old at 39!

Gotta remember though - nowadays we break more than we bend, so a little discretion is a good thing if you're into athletics.

If you are, I am too

You're definitely old (as am I) but you don't look it at all.

My sister from my dad's second marriage I haven't seen in quite a while and I saw her on father's day and we were talking and she asked me how old I was and when I said 37, she nearly fell out of her chair and yelled OMG you're almost 40!





For some reason she thought I was 32. She has to have known I was not 4 when she was born!

You're a young pup.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

well, you do look DAMN good for your age... I thought you were a lot younger....I look young too so...

NO..40 is not OLD. My hubby is 40, and I am 38..some days I feel it, most days I don't. The kids keep me young!! my youngest is 9 yrs old..The kids sometimes make references to people being old when they have discussions and we always ask them if they think 30-35 is old then what the heck are we?...they just laugh and say we don't count in that scenario...Don't sweat it..there are folks "older" than us..lol

I'm 15, and even I don't think that's old lol.
My mom just turned 40 and I don't even realize it.

<----41, and feelin' good!

Exactly. I'm 46 and I feel the same way I did twenty years ago. The only noticable difference is a touch of grey.
