I do not at all mean this in a condescending way, but you seem to be at an age when that is prone to happen, yet change back to a good mood seemingly at random.  Everybody goes through it to some degree.

I've known stubborn set-in-their-ways people who were 7-years old.  I've known enthusiastic, open-minded, ready to learn and take on new challenges people in their 90s.  My guess is that people are who they are and the years just pile on after that, and it's who they are deep down that will see them open to change or not.\n\nBut my opinion isn't written in stone.  I'm open to changing it.\n\n;)

I don't know if that's a fair question, not all people get more selfish with age.

Age. Seems like a silly answer but the older I get, the more self confidence & esteem I have. i just don't care what anyone thinks anymore.

I was the same way. Even today at 23, I have friends who are my age and who are a significant amount of years older. I think when you're young and hanging out with older people, it shows the maturity level you possess. When you're an adult, I guess you stop asking everyone's age and just look at people as people. If you have things in common with them or just enjoy their personalities, you don't even consider age.

I am 32 and proud to be an introvert.  :-D  Being introvert isn't bad, just a different way of taking in the world. :-)\n\nTho, it IS nice to see that there are some introverts here at YA!  *huggles*   I did write an article on introversion that I learned from a book I read about introversion.  "The Introvert Advantage: How to Thrive in an Extroverted World" by Marti Olsen Langey.

Older people seem strange because they grew up in a different generation with different habits and different values than we have today. Perhaps they feel that the time they remember was a better time and that if they can teach their children these same things then it will they will have a better life today.\nI do not think that older people are weird, simply different (okay, some are just weird) but to each their own. :)

Heh, I'm 19, I feel that way... Aging and it's fast pace scares me. My health hasn't been exactly "stellar".  Physically, some days I feel like I'm 80 years old. I no longer buy into the teenage baby mama drama from my former friends, like I did at 16. I guess I have trouble adjusting to age, and change.

I'm 85. I guess you'll have to ask someone older than me!

Well, with the extreme amount of younger "tweens" and whatnot, plus the actual amount of adults I see on here, I'd have to say mid twenties.  It may actually be lower than that.  The younger of the Answers populus make themselves known, whereas the older generations tend to keep almost silent.  I myself am 25 years old, so hope that helps you start off if you really feel like doing the math.

It depends on what age. When your metabolism slows down in older age, your appetite generally declines. At 42, I was still a pretty hearty eater, but I am 60 now, and I can tell my appetite isn't what it used to be - it started with me at about 55. Just be sure to exercise whatever you eat.

Within normal range. Some your age will be taller, some shorter. Same will apply throughout all your life.

Shyness. some adults suffer from it too.

Many years ago I remember Paul and John telling us youth not to trust anyone over the age of 30, therefore that was considered over the hill.  Now that I have aged past that magic number and gone to see The Rolling Stones and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Grand Funk Railroad etc. concert lately well my defination of over the hill has changed.  I know people who are in their 70's and are still enjoying life to the fullest, while some folks in their 20's take for granted the gift of age.  So in my humble opinion I would say that once a person hits the age of 80-85 they are pretty well over the hill.

You're always in your prime if you keep mentally fit. Our bodies will deteriorate as time goes on, but as they say "you're only as old as you feel", does work. Let yourself enjoy the things you used to do, smile and laugh a lot, dance to music (even on your own), have a drink, go out for a meal.\n\nSmile at someone in the street you don't know - you'll be surprised at the response!
