In my minds eye: I am 30.
My earth years are 58. Wear and tear years : 80 |
|
Look mid to late 20s. Actually am 34. Feel 25 some days, 45 other days.

When I look at a nice girl, I have to tell myself, " WoW dude your 58, your old enough to be her father."
Heck any women under 40 could be my daughter. |
|
Real: 48
Physical perception (misguided): 35 Emotional maturity: 22 ETA: Somehow I passed the 2000 post count without noticing. I may have an emotional maturity of 23. |

Airwolf, wait for the next 9 years, hold on for the ride. |

The apostrophe key is right next to the enter key. |

That old sying, " I'am not as good as I once was, but I'am as good once as I ever was."
Is a Damm Lie. |
|
The wife called me a 6 year old today, I dont disagree.
Little over 4 decades real time. |
|
+1......the 60's were rough |
|

|
My license has me listed as 21 years of age.
I feel like I'm closer to 45-50 years. |
|
In my mind 30
Real years 40 My feet and back have been plaguing me for the last three years and make me feel 10 -20 years older sometimes |
|
You're doing about right Minds eye: 25ish Age: 45 Some body parts are well over 100. Them hard miles sure add up. |

I am 43 but I feel like I am 25 and REALLY wish I was.........
|
|
47 years on the clock.
Still fell like I'm 15! Having 32 year old wife helps. I'm never gonna grow up, having too much fun! |
|
I'm 43 years old.
I feel like I'm 25. I act like I'm 18 at times when my wife isn't looking. |
|
I am 21.
Sometimes I feel like I'm 16, sometimes like I'm 40. Never anything in between. |
|
I'm chronologically 50.
I most certainly have been rode hard and put up wet. But save for one small accident-related defect, I've held up remarkably well. Except this year, I'm finally starting to feel it. Takes a little longer to recover after sports/exercise. I still think I'm years ahead of many folks I know. Guess my mind's eye would give me a 35-40. |

New Math! |
|
|
Earth years, 48
Wear and tear years, 68-88 Minds eye, 14yr. old punk kid..... (at least that's what my wife says) |
|
that's about right for me too. |
|
|
Chronologic age: 44
Mind's eye: 33 and can pass for it Can still play my drums, am good in bed, and can still shoot. but I am for the first time beginning to notice farsightedness coming on.... I am an optimist, so I believe that as anti-aging medicine advances we'll all live longer and longer |

This is a great question! Few years back before she passed away I asked my then 87 yes 87 year old Mom this exact question to which she answered about 37 or 38! Mom had all her marbles back then and she explained that was how she viewed the world, not really how "old" she thought she was. It really does explain the aging process and how kind the Lord is in hiding our frailitys. Now I am about a month off of being a Heinz variety pac, or 57 and got to tell ya she was right! Though the body feels 87!

I'm 50, but didn't realize that till I played league softball again in the spring. Now I KNOW I'm 50, but I'm playing again this summer.

Cool thread. I thought I was the only one who didn't think of himself as his proper age. Sometimes for all the wrong reasons.
Minds eye, 20ish Real, 42 |
|
Real age 59.
Minds Eye 35. Feel like I'm 95!! 35 years as a maintenance mechanic, repairing, lifting, moving heavy equipment of all types; both electronic and electromechanical, does bad things to your body. But you don't think about that when you are in your 20s and 30s. It does catch up to you later in life!! |
|
In my mind: Nothing really, I have a hard time looking at age as a comparison to something.
Real world: 21 |
|
Real Age: 22
Feel/Act: 40 Seen and done some rough shit in my time. |
|
real : 34
act: 20 something. feel 60+ after work IMO maturity is over rated |
|
How old am I in my Minds eye?
I think I went blind in that eye doing something my mom told me not to do.... I'm 37. I work/play like I'm 25. At the end of the day I feel like I'm 45 (based on how my dad looked/felt when he was that age). |
|
25, but then I look in the mirror and think WTF happened.
But I feel like 30 so I'm doing alright. |
