Are you touchy about your age?

Do you lie about your age when someone asks you or do you confidently tell them how old you really are?

I know a lot of people hide their age…in fact there are many moms I know who teach their kids to lie about their age so they don’t seem that old :nahi:.

What are you views on this concept?

I never hide :nahi: but i dont tell very confidently either lol - actually its not the number scary but its the reaction you know you will get from other person e.g. this reaction >> :eek:

totally not... Infact I feel sorry for those who do ... I think its time we change the impression that younger is better ... Every age has its own beautiful feel to it .. and growing older should be graciously accepted without losing the "young at heart" spirit ...:@:

It's weird and childish. You need to own up to what and who you are. In this day - your age defines nothing about you

I've worked hard to stay alive for the many years that I have, why would I lie about it.

There were 3 cards to sign in the staffroom today, 3 of the other teachers were turning either 30 or 40. Only 2 of the cards had the numbers on them, and someone accidently wrote 'Happy 40th' in the card with no numbers, and now we have to buy a new card, because the teacher turning 40 doesnt want people to know that she is going to be 40. One would think a 40 year would be able to handle a birthday. Crybaby!

Re: Are you touchy about your age?

Exactly as njgal said … age is just a number … and it definitely doesnt define a person.

For those who feel compelled to hide their age , can I just share that , your soul and spirit is what defines your real age .. alot of people will put pressure on you to make you feel old … but being older doesnt mean that you should kill the young spirit in you .. continue to enjoy every moment of your life , wear what ever you like, continue to live life with a spirit and trust you me , you will realize that for every one person mocking you there will be 12 looking upto you and getting inspired by you :hugz: ..

A lady I know , is 55 , she continues to life life to its max, and never listens to people around her and I love her spirit so much … she enjoys good lively clothes, good makeup , good perfumes, good purses, so full of life around people , loves going out , totally rocks :lifey: sets an example for us who kill the spirit a bit too early in life …

I hear 30 is the new 20 and the 40 is the new 30...age is just a number to me...its how I feel about myself that matters most.

Re: Are you touchy about your age?

I share my real age....but with a bitterness about it....hmm

Re: Are you touchy about your age?

Afro , its kind of caught my interest when you say , you share your real age but with a bitterness … what causes that bitterness ? … is it that you havnt really enjoyed the past years to their maximum potential ? or is it tat you feel left out in a certain group of people? or is it that you feel you will be judged?

This is purely out interest that I am asking this … :hugz:

Re: Are you touchy about your age?

I don't lie about my age because each one of my years has been filled with experiences that made me who I am. But at the same time, I think it's in bad taste to ask someone their age. Since age is just a number - why should you need to know someone's age? The number doesn't define an individual.

Re: Are you touchy about your age?

hmmmmmm

i dont lie about my age but now i feel a bit .... whats the word, bit ashamed. it would have been a different story if i had some achievement under my belt.

Re: Are you touchy about your age?

I tell what age I feel.

SO one day i’m 16, another day 42. :hehe:

Re: Are you touchy about your age?

Errmmm Well, I cant say that im happy about being my age, but I am happy that no one to date has been able to tell my age just by looking at me. Every tells me at least a good five years younger than what Iam. Then when I tell them they quite literally fall of their chairs. I have thought that they might just be saying that to be polite, but I have asked people to be completly honest as I dnt care how old they think I might be and they still say a younger age. So its alright.
