That's what I tried to tell my ex-girlfriend last year when I was trying to convince her it would be a good idea for us to try and adopt this 17 year old Korean girl from overseas. | |

People just need to accept their age and grow the fuck up. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

Both of us had a terrible time in our 20s. Job insecurity (so no money), bad guy choices, etc. The 30s were better for both of us...and the 40s better still.  We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

How are 30 somethings supposed to act anyway? I'm not trying to lay out any specific behavior. People are individuals and can make their own choices. But "extended adolescence" seems to be becoming a rather pervasive phenomenon. It used to be that high school actually prepared people to assume adult roles. Now, you're considered a "kid" until you're out of college - or even longer than that, if you move back home with mommy and daddy. 30 may be the new 20 in terms of how people think and behave. But it is not the same as 20 biologically - especially for women. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

I always looked at myself as one of those 30 somethings that was stuck in their adolescent years but just this weekend a friend of mine told me that when she first met me she thought that I was in my early 20s and couldn't understand how someone so young could be so together and confident - not interested at all in trying to make people like me, just being me, take it or leave it. When she found out I was a single mom (like her) she was even more surprised. Then she found out my age and said it made more sense. I had to laugh because I never, ever looked at myself that way. I have many male friends that are in their 30s or almost 30 who are stuck in this forever young role. I kinda thought I was in that same rut.  | |

I don't think there is anything wrong with maintaining a "youthful outlook." (People think I'm younger than I am, too.) I just believe that it's possible to strike a happy medium. You can handle your business like an adult without becoming a nooge. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

I just turned 40 last year and honestly couldnt be happier . Ive always maintainted a youthful attitude all through my 30's and now . and dont think im a nooge about it. I know sometimes on here I can come across that way. But yes being a parent forces you to strike that equal balance , having 2 kids myself. It keeps you in check and focused on whats really important in life. | |
