42 now. Life is getting more relaxing, I give less of a fig about life's travails. Have just bought a house in a quiet cul-de-sac next to a nature reserve. My nearest bar is a sand bar in the Severn estuary. Now where's that Chris Rea CD and my slippers?

My latter teens were a period of juvenile confusion (I wish I could go back, as I'm sure I'd enjoy them so much more armed with what I know now). My twenties were a decade of vague memory beginning with selfishness and ending in regret for the actions of the last 16 years (in my case this involved a marriage). My thirties were a decade of re-establishment, re-self assurance and commitment, and my forties are a decade of return on ten years hard work and the understanding of what respect actually means. I approach my fifties with some degree of trepidation, only because I don't know what to expect, but I can say without any doubt, my forties have been my happiest years for innumerable reasons.

We're a long time dead....

Would never go back to my 20's ... 30's yes...20's are over rated ..... Life begain in my 30's and I have never looked backed.

i was lucky enough to come out of uni and have a business to run that earned me good money.....
so my 20s i enjoyed as i was an idiot and spent loads on going out woman/cars...was making mistakes and i knew it but was loving it....
guys envied me and women loved me, and those women that hated me only hated me cos they never ****** me was my thinking (big headed little boy)

i then met my now fiance, i was 27, i realised (slowly) this was the one and tried to change and be a good man, now 4 years on, i dont have that money and dont have that attitude, i now know that i must work hard and spend money on my future family with little for me to treat myself..

so yes i LOVED my 20s, would i do it again?? yes, but with the brain i have now not then....looking forward to my 30s...only have 1 goal for the next 10 years...a good career to earn money for my family...

 

[GransportFan1]

nteresting story there Dem, you say your goal for the next 10 years is a good career and earn money for your family, i take it there will be little Dem's in the near future.

 

[Easyplan66]

so Adam if you go on the voice of experience everyone thinks that the next ten years will be the worst decade of your life....
Happy Birthday for tomorrow.... ha ha ha

 

[GransportFan1]

[tess]

well im 52 now, my 40's way behind me but i still feel like and act like im in my 20's....never really grown up, kids are older and dont need me so much so im pretty much free and independant but boy, would i love to retire.....lol

 

[NickP]

Nahh...50 is the new 40, hehehehe

 

[Easyplan66]

As long as you are driving an Italian car your age is not important, as you have three Enzo you are not allowed to complain at all....
however bad your body becomes.....

 

[ENZ525]

I will have to remember that Andrew, heheheheh

 

[dem maser]

Age is a number nothing more......
Got friends who are 40 but immature and silly and 20 year olds who are so well mannered and resrectful....we all different and age is just a number to me....

 

[Andyk]

Dem..as the old saying goes your as young as the girl you feel .... I'm 45 and Liz is 35 so I'm heading the right way...

 

[dem maser]

Mines 30, ohh ****!!!!

 

[marcos]

4 years to go for me, though the way I ache sometimes I dread to think what 40 or even 50 will feel like!

Congats Matt, will buy you a beer in Arnage to celebrate!

 

[marcos]

I am sorry to be over a week late in sending my congratulations on your birthday.
Just take each year as it comes; there is no perfect decade, each has it's savouring moments and each it's concerns.
Do NOT think about getting older; you never actually feel any different. Don't you honestly still think of yourself as you were when you first went to Uni or College?

I always hoped to get to 60 with my own teeth, no specs and head of hair in my original natural colour.
Well, in 3 months time I get there; the teeth are all original, I have just purchased my first specs (from ASDA as I'm a cheapskate) and my hair is still original and brown beginning to be shot through with some minute silvery bits.
Nearly did it!
