What age do you feel is old?

[jcalexis]

I would say the age of 80. I pick this a number because it is close to 100.

You're only old when you feel old.

old is when you can't do anything for yourself any longer.

well i suppose 70 .I remember at a store the checker was talking to someone and she said her son was 45  and the checker a man said "oh hes a baby" i myself was about 48 and i though how old do you have to be to consider a 45yr old a baby.Now at 58, 45 is a baby.

age is just a number your as old as you feel and yes some times i feel like i am 80 to 90  but then i get lots of comments on how good i look and they think i am in my early 40's but i will be 55 in december

I agree, aggie49, age is just a number!  You are as old as you feel!

[lbeery]

It really depends on the day.  BUt, I always feel younger than I am.  Sometimes it comes as quite a shock to realize that I am 60.  So, about 40 I would say.

It's when the person feels old!  Age is just a number.

I agree!
My mother in law is definitely a "young" 52, but I have a teacher who is an "old" 52.
It's all in how you feel and take care of yourself.

After reading this I'll feel pretty good at 77 (next month). I sure don't have any suicidal tendencies, but if a hooded guy comes riding up on a horse with a sickle in his hand, I'm not going to run and hide. I wonder if they will have Wi-Fi where we go next?

You're old when you're no fun anymore

[sherryfan]

When I don't want to make too much movement and fall sleep a lot.

I was taught in Human Development class that the average human starts to markedly decline at 80.  So I think old is 80.   Up until then you are just aging.

Age is just a number.  You are as old as you feel.  Some days I feel very old and some days a little younger.  In a couple of weeks I will be 60 and that is so hard for me to believe.

I feel a little old at age fifty two.  I did not feel old at age forty or age thirty but for some reason age fifty hit a little harder. My parents are close to eighty which is a good sign that I still have a lot of time left but not many younger people things can be done at my age. I can stay younger by exercising more.  I read an article about how runners it their peaks at about age sixty five. My kids are growing up and getting ready to move on-my daughter moves out in August for her freshman year in college which leaves only two years left with my son.  I think that the true sense of age is when things begin to break down and someone needs to spend most of their time going to see the doctor for various aches and pains.

I do not think it is so much about feeling old it is more about the things that you have been through to get to where you are at and that is what either makes you wise or weary.
