I used to think that anything over 30 was old, but now that I am over 30 myself, it's all up in the air!!  I think you are old when you are unable to do the things that used to bring you joy!!  Old is a feeling, not a number...my grandmother was 80 years old when we started talking about putting her in an assisted living facility, and she was ok with it until she went to visit.  She came home and told me that she couldn't possibly live there, the place was full of old people!!!

I say like 70 or 80 I mean I'm 30 and I feel old but people say I'm not so I guess I'm not and I don't think that my boyfriends old and hes 44 so I guess I'd say 70 or 80.

I think when a person declares he/she feels old, it is actually a state of mind. You can actually feel this way even when you're just 20 and vice versa.

 :crybaby2: It is a state of mind! Some people think 50 is almost the end of life...while others think 50 is the beginning of a new era because they are mature, they will not make the same mistakes they made while they were young. The quality of life is better, much better than when they were young. For this reason, they really enjoy life and living their own lives. Take good care of yourself regarless of age and you will see positive results.

 :sad1: When I was young, I told myself thay I'd only live to 35, because I thought that was old.. Now I'm 53, ad I'm at the time of my  life where I don't care what people think, and I am content.. Your as old as you want to be.

im 40 and my kids call me old and they are teenagers, but then my 7 year old nephew calls my kids old,, but me personally i think old is when you are not able to take care of your self no more because of age..

I believe its all a state of mind.  You're only as old as you feel.  If you  feel old at 30-start doing something that makes you feel good and its fun.  Old is when you have given up on yourself and life.

We get older every day. I think age is just a number. A state of mind. My sister will be 60 next month and I feel way older than she does, I'm 48.

I agree with mrisha.  I am 52 and feel very young!

i think 80 is old, maybe 70 if the person is no longer lucid or competant. then again, i'm only 27 and my 21 year old sister and 17 year old brother think i'm old, so what do i know?   :dontknow:

My perception of old changes as each year passes. Now that I see some laugh lines and my hair is slowly progressing from red to strawberry blonde to just blonde... old is a long time away! I'm not ready to put myself anywhere near old, so I won't give old a number anymore.

Its all relative really! Age is just a number, and as long as you lead a healthy, active and exciting life you can stave off the aging process for as long as possible. Your as old as you feel and if you feel young into your 80s and 90s then your not old.

Old is only how you feel! you can be 25 and feel 80 or be 80 and feel 25!  :)

Old is a state of mind. I know people in their 80's who act and feel younger than people in their 30's. You are only as old as you feel.

Agreed...I've seen people in their 70's that look 40. So Like you said You are Only as Old as you feel.
