NukePadding Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 I don't know what old means. I am just short of 30, but that seems young still. My knees are telling me otherwise though. Link to comment

CinnamonApples Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I think it was the month I moved out on my own and was completely independent from my folks at 19. That first month of bills really made me become disattatched to being younger, haha. Link to comment
Qball1989 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 It's hard to say, I'm currently 23 years old but I've always thought of myself as young. I always tell people I'm a kid at heart. I have responsibilities, and I've lived on my own since I was 17. But I still see myself as a "little kid". And honestly, I really hope that doesn't change. I'm finally coming to a place in life where I'm happy with who I am. Good question, I like reading all the responses. Link to comment
lilme` Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Okay, this question is a little different, but I'm bored with the same old topics. Let's explore each other more! DD tends to skew towards an older audience... mostly since we don't allow kids, but i think also because young adults often hold onto their "teen" connections and thinking longer that society accepts. So... at what age did you stop thinking of yourself as a teen or young adult, and start seeing yourself as an adult? I'm not talking about those of us that had to "grow up fast" or act like an adult at a young age, but when did you accept that you weren't connected to young society? For example, my brother was still visiting his high school and trying to fit in with the students when he was 20. So though he had adult responsibilities and society saw him as an adult, he was still connected to young people more than his "peers" Even in my mid-20's I considered myself a young adult. Still not fully into my own yet. I'm 34 now, and in the past 2-3 years I've been broad-sided by those random conversations with younger folks where I'm describing something common to my generation and they're like what? Half the time I don't have a clue who or what they're talking about either. I have become consciously aware that I'm no longer even a young adult for the past few years now. Link to comment

Starry_Eyed Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I started feeling like an adult when I first started college, I was far away from home and was buying my own school books, food, and handling transportation. I felt I had to be grown up since my mom wasn't around to help me pay for my phone bill or tell me what time the train would arrive. Since than I've considered myself an adult. Link to comment
