No. If you feel you've not done enough, look to do more. Age very rarely has anything to do with anything.

Are you scared of growing old?
- Thread starter blahman16
- Start date
When I was 22, I was scared to death of getting old. I felt time rushing past me, I wasn't doing all the things I thought I was supposed to have already done, I needed to have a boyfriend and my own home and a career not a job and I had to have it RIGHT NOW BEFORE I GET TOO OLD!
And I totally missed the whole thing. I was so worried about turning thirty, and so preoccupied with what I hadn't done yet, that my early twenties went dancing on by without me even feeling them (I was also drunk a lot, and don't even remember most of it). That's a time of life you'll never have back; and though it's not the most important time of life, it's still amazing and special and not to be missed.
But now I have no fear. I mean, I was scared shitless of turning thirty, I figured I'd be a grownup and nobody would want to have sex with me and I'd be looked down on for not having achieved the things one is "supposed" to achieve by the time one is thirty.
And in the event, it wasn't so bad. I looked the same, I felt the same, I attracted the same as I had at 25. I was smarter, and calmer, and had a little less energy, but in general it was a great time.
But, oh sweet Christ, here comes forty! I'll be middle-aged! I'll have to wear cardigans and smoke a pipe! And I'm still single, and only a loser would still be single at forty!
And then I did turn forty, and it's not so bad. What was I worried about? Nothing! Although I have to admit that I get a total charge when people guess my age at somewhere between thirty and thirty-five, I have no shame in being a forty-year-old who's never had a relationship that lasted more than a couple of weeks and doesn't own anything bigger than a car and lives with his grandmother. And the funny thing is that I'm better-looking now than I was at twenty-two... I mean, I was pretty then, and thinner, but now I'm actually attractive, insofar as I notice people being attracted to me. Twenyt-year-old boys didn't flirt with me when I was twenty, but they're doing it now.
So anyway, live for today, make short-term plans that you can achieve rather than dreaming of some far-off someday in which life will be perfect. Now is perfect, enjoy it.
And for you young-uns: enjoy the fact that your skin is still fully attached to your body... you're going to miss that later on, trust me

Terrified.
I do have some favorite quotes, though.
Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter. ~Mark Twain
In youth the days are short and the years are long; in old age the years are short and the days long. ~Nikita Ivanovich Panin
The years teach much which the days never knew. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
Do not regret growing older. It is a privilege denied to many. ~Author Unknown

A penny isn't worth picking up now!
I would probably be dead if it weren't for Post-it notes.
I make a note of everything I need to remember.
Note to self: You're anal retentive.
and not in a good way

I tell people that I am 85.
They tell me that I'm a liar and that I look terrific for 85.
Then I tell them my real age, and they tell me I still look great.
People are so polite.
22. You are still a baby. Life gets better.

Just wait until you have a receding hairline, gray in your beard, and those damn annoying hairs growing out of your nose and ears.

It really isn't that bad. You don't really give it a thought. It just happens. You wake up one morning and you're old and you say, "Holy crap! When did that happen!??"
Short answer: No
Regrets: Yes
I'm comfortable with who I am more now than I was 5,10,20 years ago.
I don't take the little stuff near as seriously as I used to.
Read my signature line. I keep it there for a reason.

Gee golly thanks. You've seen my picture.
I am actually kind of curious about what things will look like in the future. Because right now I have no idea.
Not really as long as i have a good career a college degree and a boyfriend and living in my dream state im fine.
Now i would be worried if im working at a shitty job and lonely and living in this good for nothing boring city. sharing a ghetto overpriced run down roach rat infested 2 bedroom apartment on top of a store with my brother.
