I'm turning 40 in two years and considering a major life change by then.

I am married, no kids, most probably won't have kids.

Absolutely. It's never too late to change things in your life.

You are NEVER too old to be the person you might have been.

Of course! I'm in my late 40s and would certainly consider doing so if I felt the need/desire!

Not too late at all! I moved to another country aged 43. Completely started again...and with children too.

Age is just a number.
I turned 40 this year & was diagnosed with a life changing illness. That really brings it home, makes you think.
You're here once! Make it count & be happy!

I hope not. Turned 40 this year too. Keep telling myself life is not a dress rehearsal. Go for it!

clumsyduck · 29/12/2016 21:53

Absolutely not
Whatever you want from life go for it !!

clumsyduck · 29/12/2016 21:53

I meant not to old haha

At 40 I left my husband.

It's been glorious.

AteRiri · 29/12/2016 21:56

Thank you. The change I'm contemplating on is moving to another country, starting anew.

We moved at 38 with 2 young kids and started over. Now 3 kids and no regrets.

Go for it! Wink
