What Age Do Forum Members Consider To Be "Old"

[BlasterMaster]

NOT A HATCHET!!!!!... maybe something with a lot of large, stiff feathers.......

LOL. Not the hatchet! I need my arms and legs to liveeee!

Also I don't tickle kids.

But man, the nerve of that whippersnapper.

I find 'old' relative. I have more questions than answers. What context is it used in? This is probably what my go to would be, just to get my head around it.

40, since one orbit around the sun is a year. Don’t worry; it wasn’t math - it was astronomy ��

well ouch i figured it out myself lol...

And whoever asked if i was joking, i never joke about things regarding math and the like lol

o and nice to see you again, Oddjob

 

[rdhd]

isabeau..
I was th one who asked if you were joking, and it was said jokingly (is that a word?). Didn't mean to offend, if I did, I apologize. Good to hear you take math "and the like" seriously (I have a few pieces of paper in a science); so many now don't, especially once out of school.

I’m 46 but don’t feel or act it, and I’m probably fitter and slimmer now than I was at 25. However, in the eyes of a teen or adolescent, I’d probably be considered old. In general though, I think 70+ is officially ‘old’. Of course, it’s a state of mind and attitude - some people are born old while others never grow up!

Cheers, everybody,

Yes, I can’t believe you came back! It’s nice to see you here.

Stevie Ray Vaughn. Wow - I’ve seen his gravesite in southern Dallas. A vanilla friend of mine, her father played with him in a high school band as a drummer. Stevie’s a big deal where I am!

Ok, I'm picking this up a couple of months since the last post. I'm new here but have been lurking for years.

I'm going to refine the question a bit: what is old for purposes of finding a lee or a ler? On dating sites for tickle dating and such, most people are just looking for sex or a long term relationship without even mentioning the T word. What gives? So I joined here. To be candid, looking at posts, it's intimidating seeing all the 20- or 30-somethings and virtually no 50- or 60-somethings like me. Tips on what to do? Thx.

 

[rdhd]

I'm 60+. There are a number of us here, we just don't make a big fuss about it. And, one day, all those 20- or 30- somethings will suddenly find (think it was a Pink Floyd song, from Dark Side of the Moon - "and then one day you find, ten years have got behind you.."0) that they will be there too.

 

[BlasterMaster]

If there's are two constants on our world it's that every humans grows old and that no human has ever lived forever.

Exercise and drink water, at least.

Due to many civilizations' advancements we've continually extended lifespans
(until now, this is apparently the first generation that may not further extend due to the toxic chemical excesses in our food, water, environment, so try to go green & organic as much as you can....)

So yes, 65 is young. So is 75 or 80, today.... as it was said, if you stay active....
And sleep well, eat well, drink enough water.

I've met 90 year olds who seem 65, and 65 year olds who seem 90.

"A body in motion stays in motion," and water is the Fountain of Youth.

All those sodas especially but also the fake sugary drinks (including many "vitamin" or "fruit juices") will erode your teeth, skin, hair, bones overall and cause all sorts of diseases....
As will meat & dairy, I'm finding...

TOO OLD? FOr joy, playfulness and tickling?

Hey, unless a person has serious health issues (and boy that would suck) there should be no age limit.

If you're happy , healthy and ticklish..... then age doesn't matter. People will
choose a person of different ages based how they feel about it but that's where it should stop.

This is supposed to be the era where , because people are living longer, that say 50 is the new 30 - 35?

Why should this kind of fun only be for someone under 30? Many of us are born with this fetish, It's not like we can turn it off and say "OK...DONE!" : D LOL.

OK, I’ll chime in on this one……I am 68. And I’ll bet that I’m close to being the oldest person on TMF.

I am 71.

 

[footplaything]

As a child 40 seemed old. Last week I lost my husband at the age of 57 - so young. I think age is about how we feel, act and interact. Being 57 now 60 and even 70 are on my doorstep and seem young.

 

[milagros317]

I am 71.

Now 72.

When I was 18, my father was 50. I thought of him as very old then. Now I have a different perspective. 😛

 

[bethany948]

I'd hold onto that one until retirement, and keep putting as much money away as you can. LOL

 

[Matt Ramsey]

Your only as old as you feel... or is that who you feel?

 

[GirlWhoLikes2Laugh]

It's a hard question to answer. I am 50 and I don't think I am that old yet. Think it's all in the person's attitude.

 

[kered]

Going to be 65 tomorrow.......dammit!! But there is one thing that is true and I know because I lived it. It is not the years, but it is the mileage and sometimes I feel like a little kid then the next day I feel like I've walked to Mars and back five times. Yet I always feel better after I remember Milagros is older than me.

 

[Mrselizabot]

My favorite is Lana Del Reys song, " Young and Beautiful. To answer the post I would say 33 is old for me. I like guys half my age. If the are 33 the they might live longer so they can make love to me. When I was 16 I dated men twice my age. Then I was 19 my boyfriend was 19. When I met my fiance he was 22 I was 29! Finally the biggest gap was my 4 years relationship, I was 42 and ready to have a baby. But never married so I am still looking. He told me I was 18 years older than him? My stepfather and mother also had 18 years her junior. They lasted until his death. Since 1988 21 years together!

 

[wolfman40]

45 now, kinda musing, taking stock, aiming to cut out the booze and run a little bit more.

Feel like if I can do this now less chance of me keeling over in my 50's 🙂
