Do you sometimes feel old, OT?

Im only 18, and while everyone I know is out partying I sometimes feel like i just wanna sit on a rocking chair in the front porch and drink beer ..do nothing and listen to good music. Perferably remember good memories. Feel 'old', if you know what I mean.

Anyone else feel the same way?

Not at all.

Not in the slightest. I'm 28 years young. More importantly, I'm male.

I'll be young for another 20 years.

I feel old D: I'm a junior in high school, and I can still remember all the times I had fun when I was a kid :(NiKva

I feel the same and I am 21

That is a bit weird if you're only 18 maybe, I get it occasionally and i'm 27, but then I can't wait to get a stairlift...screw stairs!

I started feeling old when I realized Obama was the first president who was born after my mother was born. Makes me wonder how old I'll feel when we have a president who was born after me.

Of course, I can't really say I'm old since there are people older than me who run marathons and do other stuff some of today's teens are too out of shape to do.

I sometimes feel a bit old in GameSpot, when a good chunk of the population here is teenagers, and I am pushing 30.

i'm 26 and i've failed in most things i wanted to do with my life,so yeah,yet i sometimes think that it's just an excuse i unconsciously pursue to convince myself that it's too late for everything,why bother trying?

Not in that way, but I feel old when some little kid walks into GameStop and says "man, they still sell PS2 games? That thing is SO OLD!" T.TCaptainAhab13

Haha, and when the cool kids make pendants out of PS2 controllers for their necklaces, because its retro....I saw it, and felt old.

eh..you're just a kid~ im 37~

I feel the same way when my 11 year old cousin tells me about Adventure Time and I was like "WTF is that?"

Saw an episode of Batman The Animated Series on the other day. Original air date was in 1992 which makes me feel old :(lilasianwonder

Im old(getting old), but I dont feel old. I dont even feel like Im gonna get old.

I know that feel TC. I am 19 and I am so tired these days I can barely stay up past midnight. All my friends go out twice a week and I simply don't have the energy to do it anymore, I fall asleep after drinking 2 or 3 beers now. I savour every free moment I have by watching movies and just taking a breather.

I go back and forth. Working with high schoolers makes me feel old because as easily as we can converse during work and get along and chit chat, that's no longer my crowd of people. As young as I feel, I don't fit in with teenagers... but I feel like one. Seeing toddlers work electronics also makes me feel old.

I realised how old I felt when I remembered back to when the SNES came out and I first played Super Mario World and now there are kids who were born after the SNES came out who are already driving, graduating from high school, in college, and joining the military.

In the sense that you posted, sure, but I don't see it as a negative thing. Some people are just different.

I feel old all the time. I'm only 22 and I'm already exhausted.

That's exactly what I did when I was 18. Also hanging out with people old enough to be my father. Never felt 'old', though. I just do my own thing.

Being old is just a state of mind. In this life, you're always coming across new things and learning more about yourself, so in a way, you're always growing. Instead of wallowing around in despair because of how many avenues my age has closed off, I try to focus on how many avenues it's opened up.

Sometimes. When I look at places in my city that I remember from childhood (like the old McDonalds that had tiny doors, an activity centre in the mall that is no longer there, the Kmart I got my first bike at which has been turned into a half dozen things since then) and see how much they've changed, it kind of blows my mind.XilePrincess

That's how i feel as well. When i see things like that i often tell myself "where did times go..."

at 25, i do feel old when i'm on campus.

Some people despite their young age can surprise me. Most times if i get deep into a conversation i just run into the arguements i heard when i was their age. Which again loops back to reminding me that i feel old.

Naw brah I'm freshz

Not really. I'm 47 and still feel about the same way as I always did. It's all that immaturity I guess.

I certainly don't feel like going out and partying like I did when I was in my early 20's, but that's just because it gets boring after a while.

I'm 21 and I act like a grandpa compared to most of my friends. Oh well, doesn't bother me.The_Zoid

I don't feel old, asI work out and such... But I am one really boring person. Most people party on the weekend, I watch TV and take a nap :|.
