My Last Day Of Being 43 Im Beginning To Feel Middle Aged When Did Middle Age Start.

[gordiescotland1]

I cant believe that I am 44 tomorrow. I'm feeling officially middle aged. When does middle age start?

[Canary42]

50

[fiction-factory]

Sounds young to me!
But if live span is 70 years then 0-27 is young, 27-54 is middle aged and 55+ is old

When you let it.

[gordiescotland1]

good point Ecclescake

[Captain2]

Well I'm 62 and don't feel it yet.

Thanks FF 'and 55+ is old' - no it isn't, it's a state of mind

[fiction-factory]

Agreed- I'm over 55 and don't even feel middle aged. But I know someone who argued that middle age started at 27. It's all in the mind

When your body and minds decides

I'm 46 soon and am starting to feel middle-aged because I don't know who most of the "celebrities" are on celebrity special tv shows.

when you start leaking pee.....?

I'll be 65 this year, a pensioner, I don't feel, act or think 65, and am not about to become 65 by default. I'm in charge of how old I feel and how I behave and 65 is a long way off atm.

I know 30 year olds that act "old." As everyone has said, age is in the mind . Happy new year Geordie xx

You have your answer Gordie........It's when you mentally feel middle aged and you don't have to let that happen.

Mazie is right......at sixty five I'm younger than my children....much to their embarrassment.....and younger than some of my grandchildren!.... :-)
