1. when you go to a rock concert and wonder why all the really hot looking guys are years younger than you are.

6. when people tell you how good you look for your age

When I go see a band in a club and realize it would be embarrassing to hang out afterwards for an autograph cause I've got at least 10 years on all the other girls doing that.

and

When a young guy approaches me, I find myself saying: "Boy, do you know how old I am???"

SCNDLS said:

They apparently don't

Cinnie said:

But I do, so I feel the need to disgust them with the fact I'm old enough to be their mother. It's a vicious cycle.

If starting to like The Sound Of Music is a sign of getting old I will stay young forever !

Strangely that's not happening to me at all (yet). I hope that won't change .

You're lucky. I hope your metabolism stays the same for you too.

Well if it's any comfort to you, I found my first gray hair at age 32 (I'm 47 now). I get my hair highlighted to cover up all those gray hairs I have now.

psychodelicide said:

Actually, that does make me feel a little better! Eventhough, I'm 34 y/o and I was probably in my mid 20's when I started to gray. Now, when it starts to show, people feel obliged to "alert" me all day long that I have gray hair. I'm thinking, yeah, I'm AWARE!!

SCNDLS said:

aw shit..now you bringin' PRT up in this peice!

rock dis funky joint

psychodelicide said:

Awww thank you . My mom and my bf are always concerned that I don't eat enough, they want me fatter than I am .

When you get a cramp in your leg, back or butt check while having sex and have to stop!

I recently spent a full 8 hour day in a classroom, just sittin on my butt, reading and testing on a computer... by the end of the day I got home and actually felt tired from all that sitting on my arse and reading! My eyes were burning!

Imagine watching a game (basketball, football, hockey, whatever) and while sitting or laying on a couch or bed you get a cramp in your leg or back, just laying there WATCHING sports!

It is a cruel twist of fate, I tell you!

When you turn into a grumpy miserable bastard, "apparently"

ALSO, when you find yourself singing along to songs that you hated when you were a teen, but now you find you know every word to these songs and they bring back fond memories, leaving you wishing you were a teen again!

please stop....it's to close to the truth

xpertluva said:

I know what you mean; my hairdresser has told me that I'm getting more gray hairs too. I feel like telling her, "Please don't remind me!"

Serious said:

You're welcome. Your mom sounds like my mom. She doesn't think I eat enough either (which is not really true).

Here's another sign that you're getting old (which I just realized today): When your parents, aunts and uncles are all in their 70's and 80's, and they start to have health problems. You wonder how much longer they're going to be around.

You refer to the "good ole days" more often than usual.
You get annoyed that Hollywood wants to remake every movie.
You get annoyed anything related to the next generation or two, even though you want to work with them.
You actually want to embrace the grays, except for the strays in the nose.
You hear a song that causes you to flashback and tear up simultaneously.
Either everybody is married or struggling to get a mate.
Yeah the "ma'am" reference hits me every time, but I'm not offended by it. At least it's politeness.
