2nd Trimester

s/o Old--Poll

When was the first time you actually felt "old?" 

I was 18, teaching a ballet class to a group of 7 year olds.  I told them their hands looking like Gumby's hands.  They looked at me like I grew three more heads!

  • I think I have those moments on and off ever since entering 5th grade.

  • When i was 30 going to beauty school with a bunch of 19 year olds. But we all got along great. I am relatively immature for my age. Wink
  • Mine is more recent, I was chatting with my younger sister and her friend and they had never heard of Ace of Base.

  • DH is in a band and the average fan is 17yo. I think I fit in perfectly with them. They think I'm someone's mom.
  • When I see highshool girls and think they need to wear more clothes and act more mature. Also, when people are blaring music from their car.

    Oh, and when I can say "about 15 years" and tell a story that I remember. That makes me feel old.

  • god i've been feeling old for so long i can't remember the first time.  how's that for old?  hah hah.

    i think i feel old any time i'm around younger people (so like freshman when i was a senior - hs or college) or there's a song on the radio that i liked back in the day.  those types of things generally make me feel old.  but there's a billion other things that make me feel old these days too.  sad.  ::sigh::

  • Happened just a few weeks ago. I was teaching color guard and the girls were acting like they were 90 yrs. old that couldn't move. I said that I was double most of their ages and could still do whatever it was. I meant it to be sarcastic, but sadly I really am double some of them. That kinda hurts.
  • Im about 8 years older than my fiance. Sometimes Ill say "dont you remember this" and he has no clue......makes me feel old.

     Also about the post on ace of base. I had to laugh at that. I too have mentioned some random bands that were popular for the minute and others do not remember.

  • When I was in college, I coached a 7th grade volleyball team. When I realized that they were graduating, I felt old. They're now juniors in college....::sigh::

  • The other weekend I was around my DH's 8yr old half-sister's, and backstreet boys came on, so naturally, I sang along. They asked "Who are the Backed Street Boys?" ? ?I said it was my generations version of the Jonas Brothers...
  • Sunday when I turned 25- I felt 25, it was weird
  • When a kid I was mentoring (I was 19) had never heard of Aerosmith!  Then when I played a song they called them "those old weird dudes"...
  • Last Friday DH and I went out to dinner, and our peppy, young waitress called me "ma'am". That made me feel old.
  • I've gotten ma'med before. I think when I think that its been 10 years since I graduated high school or 11 since I got my license..
