Being 30 Something Thread

[Payle Gray]

This is a thread for 30 somethings to talk about joys, complaints, hopes, fears, experiences, etc. that they might have.

I'm 31 and although I still feel like a 20 something, I know my mindset is different. I think about the future more and I've taken a lot more responsibility.

...also i have some gray hair coming in

I'm curious as to what other 30 something Hypers have to share

 

[Ronny Shade]

I'm 24 but that's like 38 for rappers.

 

[Two-Face]

I'm 25 I feel like I'm 18....

 

[Payle Gray]

...i was kinda hoping to hear from people who are actually in their 30s.

 

[Majic Walrus]

Every time I go out in public I feel older and older. Kids today... sheesh...

 

[Ronny Shade]

I'm 25 I feel like I'm 18....

how do you do it?

 

[Majic Walrus]

I'm 24 but that's like 38 for rappers.

You're a rapper? An old rapper?

Whoa.

I am exactly the same way....even 4 or 5 years ago in my late twenties (I'm 32 now) I didn't really care about the future...and the grey hair is creeping up on me.

Not to mention the fact that I have 2 kids (one is 13 the other is 4).

But I like to think that you are only as old as you feel (or allow yourself to feel).

"I'm 24 and I enjoy my life as time goes by."

"I'm 25 I feel like I'm 18.... "

"I'm 24 but that's like 38 for rappers."

One thing that I'm tired of is how 20 somethings think that 30 somethings can't play superheroes in movies for some reason. It really irks me. Thank goodness RDJ got Iron Man.

They really need a 30 something for Hal Jordan. I just can't buy a 20 something in the role. When I think of Hal Jordan I think of the Right Stuff. Look at the maturity of most of the guys in that cast. Did they look ancient? Unbelievable?

Not a bit.

[Addendum]

I turned 30 this past July, but I don't feel any different then I was in my 20s or when I was a teenager.

I'm irresponsible, in the sense that if something goes wrong I don't want to be held responsible. I have no inclination to become a father. I have no desire to get married, let alone enter a serious relationship.

 

[Raiden]

I'm in my 30s, but I don't feel like I should give up on my interests to become "older". I still feel the same as I did back in my 20s, but right now there is the added burden of a family and a kid that I didn't have before. Sometimes I do yarn for the simpler and less stressful days in the past.

 

[Payle Gray]

i think most people who are in their 30s would say they don't "feel" their age. however, if their minds haven't matured then they might be in trouble.

the thing i think the most about is the want/need to get married and have kids. i always thought i'd have been married and had a kid by the time i turned 30. but that was not the case whatsoever.
there is an impending doom beginning to lurk in that respect.

Don't worry, the day for you to meet your better half will come. Just keep on praying and believing the good things that comes later in life. Even though I'm young, I've meet a lot of interesting people who are far older than I am. I kept their wisdom till today. I knew a lot of 30 something who weren't married yet, one of them is a sibling of mine. We will never what is going on tomorrow and I know its gonna be great no matter crappy it is cos everyone and me are still breathing. Once you'll have a family, you'll be on the top of the world with joy and prosperity. That's how I see when my sister have a family of her own. Don't worry, your time will come

30 year olds.

I was in the best shape of my life 10 years ago. People don't believe my age, and I'm like hello do you not see the big bald stop on my head??? But I am enjoying being 35. I'm still the same person, mind you the "crazyness" has toned done alittle.
I wouldn't trade it. The wisdom is amazing (the older I get the wiser I get, the wiser I get the more I realize I don't know a dam thing). I see things differently, more clearly. I'm WAY more responsible (which is kinda scary), more calm (had a wicked crazy Italian temper). Yet I still surf the net, play City of Heroes, laugh at farts...
Finally with the person I have wanted for five years (guess we had somethings we needed to go through before we could be the great couple that we are today).

I so feel like I am in my 20's (because we are just scraping by, but that's the econmys fault, not mine). All in all life is great =)

Im 33, but most people think I am younger.
I certainly feel younger, but would actually love to be in my twenties again knowing what I now know.....could correct a lot of my mistakes.

Brother that is how I feel.

 

[Kable24]

I'll be 35 in 2 months. I still act like a kid sometimes, but my body knows I'm not. I get aches and pains at times doing things I did as a kid. One time I was goofing around with my wife and I decided to slide down the stairs on my ass. I did it thousands of times as a kid. I slid down my butt hitting every step and I stood up and my body ached something fierce.

I think this sums it up...from the great Randall Graves
Dante Hicks: Why *do* the Go-Karts help?
Randal Graves: I don't know. They just remind me of a better time in my life.
Dante Hicks: Like when?
Randal Graves: Like when we were young and the world was still in front of us.
Dante Hicks: We're not that old.
Randal Graves: Yeah. But, sometimes I get the feeling the world kinda left us behind a long time ago.
Dante Hicks: You know, you can do something about that.
Randal Graves: I told you, I don't wanna jerk off in the bathroom at work!
