What do you feel "too old" for?

Abigail Crabby · 08-18-2011, 04:34 AM

I thought about it some more......

There are some things I'm too old for.

Drama.

The all about me people.

People who only see what's in it for them.

Broken promises

I guess all the above = Drama

StillettoDoll · 08-18-2011, 05:08 AM

Smoking cigarettes which I just quit, learning ballet, mini shirts and short shorts, having children, junk food,
gymnastics .

I am too old to tolerate the bullshit.

Dominique · 08-18-2011, 06:35 AM

I was coming on here to say I'm too old for Drama. But I see it's been well spoken for.

JustJo · 08-18-2011, 07:38 AM

A few things....

reading the small print without my glasses
hearing anything in spaces with lots of background noise, competing voices, or if you're just standing behind me
waitressing, bartending or anything else that involves long hours on my feet
jobs without vacations and benefits

MissPriss · 08-18-2011, 11:32 AM

Today was a very hard day at work so as of now my body feels way too old for job!! Also, my neice is trying her best to drag me to a party. Really? When Im all beat up with cracked ribs that are most likely in worse shape than they were on the initial break lol. This child wants me to go to a party full of twenty somethings.....She is an amazing soul thinkin her Auntie is just the coolest most IN thing ever. Gotta love her!

Red Dirt Girl · 08-18-2011, 05:36 PM

I feel too old to learn to surf.
I don't feel old enough to know that maybe I'm not.

JazzGirl · 08-25-2011, 10:19 AM

To parent to a full grown adult. I do not mean one of my own full grown adult children, that is different. Well, done differently, now.

For an instant relationship after three dates.

To not put myself first in a healthy, functional way always. I am surprised at how many do not do so, including me, before realizing it is the only way to be happy. I am not espousing selfish, dysfunctional response, I am saying self must be an important part of ANY relationship. Thank goodness for AlAnon.

*Anya* · 12-04-2011, 04:05 PM

Too old to work all day, dance all night, sleep for 3 hours and get up and go back to work again.

Everything else...in moderation

Greco · 12-04-2011, 04:15 PM

too experienced not to embrace loving profoundly that intelligent, gorgeous, feisty, juicy delicious woman when she crosses my path...

too experienced not to be in the best health of mind, body, and spirit that I can be so I can continue to enjoy loving me.

too experienced not to appreciate my lovely family, and creative friends of all experiences (read ages)...

too experienced not to dance joyously to music so moving it makes all of Time stop as I hold Her in my arms and we dance to its rhythm

too experienced not to know that each moment is precious and that I am grateful for it...even as the silver rides my temples...I love life.
