I'm 29 years old

29 was precisely the age when I realized my own mortality. Sounds perfectly normal to me. Carpe diem, kid.

32 yo here, can confirm it sucks. want to go back to 24 and stay there

backs starting to hurt sometimes, knee is fucked up, takes forever to recover from soreness after the gym (usually like 2 days), hangovers last multiple days, get sleepy and tired after like 2 beers now. short term memory is fucked up, its like im breaking down. wtf is wrong

>>39612412
what better economic climate? sure we didnt start our lives in a recession but our prospects arent really getting better. there's also no telling what's going to happen when most of my generation is graduating from college.

Im 45 now. I went through the same thing as you. Now i take pride in taking care of my body and keeping fit. Most people my age are overwieght and act old. I look late 30s. Dont get jealous of younger people, i used too. Instead try to teach them and take pride in helping them grow. And if you respect them and treat them like adults they will respect you.

I feel bad for younger people now. I think the world is just going to be complete shit in about 10 years. At least at our age, we're able to accumulate capital and prepare for the shitstorm coming. These kids are fucked.

30 here. I think most men start having similar feelings. Your perspective shifts. I don't get pissed at younger people though I just have the urge to warn them about the traps in life that I got caught up in that people don't really warn you about. I'm not talking about chicks with dicks btw.

>tfw hot girls ignore you because youre old bald man

I just turned 30, it's been kind of a relief. I don't want to be one of the kids anymore and now I just pity younger people for all the retarded shit they do and have to go through.

GO FIND A TRADE

I am not fucking joking. If there was something that I could tell 18y.o. me it would be GET A FUCKING TRADE AND DON'T GO TO COLLEGE. Like holy fuck you have no idea how vital this is to your future anon. DO NOT GO TO COLLEGE. GET TRAINED IN A SKILLED TRADE.

Nice tits buddy

Yes it's normal. First time i started feeling a disconnection to current youth culture etc i was about 25. The age itself is a big deal too, i struggle to relate to to people in very similar situations as mine just due to age difference which wasn't really a thing before. Feels strange to no longer belong to the youth and that i'm no longer a part of the newest generation. Also hormones really mellow out after 25.

>>39612415
Many millennials took their first steps into the adult world just as the 2008 global economic crisis hit.

>talks about hidden life traps
>mentions none

Anon...

who else here is old but looks way younger? I'm 27 and regularly get carded, most people put my age at around 21 though I've gotten as young as 19. I was out at a bar once with my dad and someone thought he was my grandfather.

>>39613524
op here, im in the same boat. do you have kik? would love to talk about it

>>39612412
It only gets worse. There was a point where I thought being in a college campus forever would make my whole life connected with honesty and innocence of youth but now all I want to do is fuck 18 year olds and I teach grad courses and I'm disgusted by how I threw my life away in school

this sounds legit. I'm a dude anyway.

>>39613692
and if you were really 30 you wouldn't have Kik

>disgusted how I threw my life away with school

Same. I've wasted so many fucking miserable years of my youth grinding away in university

It was all for nothing. Sure I have degrees in technical fields, but my life has not been enriched at all. I will never get those years back

Academia is a joke, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
