[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm 41 and told everyday I look younger. No wrinkles have smooth skin perfect vision never had any back pain. I am fit and lean when I used to be fat all my 20s and early 30s. When I was 25 or so I could pass for 15. I'm 41 now and pass for 21. Booya[/quote]

Don't kid yourself.

I'm the same weight I was when I was 21, I work out regularly and keep myself healthy and trim, people flatter me by saying I look great (mainly because I never put on weight) but there's no denying I've still aged.

When you were 21 you never confused a 40 y/o with a 20-something. Why would you think differently now?

[b]45 isn't old. But it is approaching middle age. [/b]For most people you are now over halfway through your life. And people in their 40s are often starting to reach senior levels/career peaks with the demands that come with it and alongside that have to deal with growing children and aging parents. I deal with all these and no amount of astute anticipation ever prepared me for the reality.[/quote]

45 is middle aged, not approaching it. And I say that as a 45 year old. Nothing wrong with that.[/quote]

I'd say it's past middle age for most of us. Most people don't live to be 90.[/quote]

Middle age is a range, not a specific year. Elderly comes after middle aged. Surely you are not proposing that a 45 year old is elderly? If so, what is an 85 year old?[/quote]

This. You are middle aged for like 20 years. It's the middle of your adult life, if you live to an average life expectancy. So your 40s and 50s.[/quote]
