Feeling old??

I dont know about you - but I think my life is flying past me at an incredible rate??

How come I can remember 1999 being released?
How come I can remember Girls and boys being released???
U got the look?????


oh my god - Ive just realised that I am nearly 33 years old - and Prince has been there - in my ears - since the tender age of 13!!!

I feel sad - but happy at the same time - that hes been there and Ive supported him this long - nearly giving up on him at some points - but never letting go wink

Because you've not blocked them out your mind yet?
News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so.

Is the hoverround starting to sound good to you? I've heard Prince is thinking of getting a Purple one.

But that doesnt stop me from feeling like an old fart at the moment lol!! confused


Oh please! I'm 3 years older than you and when I get that 'damn, I feel old' feeling I just look at Prince whose older than us both and has more energy than the average teenager and I remember as long as I stay true to who I am, age is nothing but a number!

Look I'm 33 and I've been a Fan since the age of 7. I started out by digging Contraversy and Officialy became a fan for lif thanks to D.M.S.R. I blame my parens for playing the albums so much. And I couldn't touch my daddy's records. I don't consider it feeling old, I just consider it a deeper appreciation.

When I was in my mid-30's I didn't have a problem with my age,but...
when I turned 37 I didn't like the fact that 40 was coming closer wink

I'm 38 now,and sometimes people are surprised I still enjoy music and life so much,sometimes I just feel I'm still 20!!Maybe that's because my wife still IS(24) lol

Serious,when I turn 40 I'm gonna have a big party and just move on...
I really didn't think Prince would still be around,in the mid 90's
I thought he would call it quit,he's been my compagnion 4 more than 20 years now and I hope he keeps on making music untill we're all 65!!

FEELING OLD at 33?? What??? Ridiculous...seriously. I am 37, still get asked out by girls in their early 20's, sing in a rock band, and love life, laughing and having fun. I never had kids, never got married, and feel exactly the same as I did in my 20's. In fact, I am in better shape physically now than I was then. Age is TOTALLY a state of mind. My mom just got engaged at 72, is totally in love, and she is more active than anyone I know 40, 50 years younger. DO NOT GIVE UP because you are in your 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's and beyond. LIFE is what you make it, and you should absolutely be enjoying it. If you aren't and feeling old at 33, sorry to hear that.

I never said I wasnt enjoying life - quite the opposite thanks - so you dont need to be 'sorry' for me

It just feels like life is going so quickly

I havent given up on life just yet thanks!

Feeling old? 42 next month. Nah. Keep track of the years but later for the western hype. Maturity is just that. A freezer burn compared to cool. Real talk. I can remember hearing Soft and Wet for the first time at the skating ring in like 79. Smacking girls hands rolling around the ring, afro blow out, polyesther dress shirt open and bell bottom dress slacks in the wind. Ran a marathon when I turned 40. Its the kizuwizu

Sorry, no offense meant smile....Good to hear...It does move quickly but the older I get,the more fun I'm having...And, if you believe in something after this life, then even if nothing does, at least you still believed and enjoyed. Remember the Prince quote "Time is a trick"??...I think he was onto something...

The only time I feel old is on THIS website with 30-40 somethings thinking they're old. I'm older than P and my mind must need to catch up with my 51 years. (It's hard to do when I still have 30-40 yr olds hit on me at work.)
