At what age do you finally accept you’re old!

[twiddlingthumbs69]

I’ll go first:

I now have to sit down to put my pants on
my back hurts when I bend down
my knees hurt when I go upstairs
i look in the mirror and count the lines and wrinkles. And yes, there is a new one everyday
i I look at the youngsters these days with their crop tops and the first thing I think is, aren’t they cold?
then remember I used to wear them and old ppl said that to me!
I favour high rise stretchy jeans and look at Bridget jones pants and think, they’re perfect!

I don’t look in the mirror much so I don’t care about wrinkles. Sometimes I do get a surprise to see my grandma as I pass a shop window though!

I am not old yet but I do hope to be, one day.

How old are you?

100!

Also, why do people quote the OP's original/first post? Especially only 1 or 2 posts in? This needs banning!

@Lazycatsitsonthemat61 but feel 81

I love going for a walk but then I have put my legs up on a bean bag in the evening because my knees hurt from the walk.
I get scared when I sneeze in case I leak.
I have no idea what the latest fashion is and still wear the comfortable clothes I bought 5 years ago.
I don’t bother to colour my hair because it’s too dark and doesn’t suit me anymore.
I come in from gardening about a foot shorter because I can’t stand up straight for about an hour.
but wanted to add my daughter favours high rise stretchy jeans too and she’s 19.

@stripeyfavewow! Are you me? How old are you?

I ran my third half marathon at 60. I didn’t start running till I was 50!
I practice balance etc every day.
I still work a responsible job.
I go to festivals and camp.
I won’t retire in 4.5yrs when I’m 67.
Not sure when I’ll think of myself as old but it’s not yet!

Good for you!

41. I'm feeling old. My back hurts.

@StMarie4me that’s impressive, wish I had your motivation

I was shaving, and looked up to the mirror. My face was still looking down at the sink.
