Well at your age I already had a family so no pressure there or anything you listed. Turning 30 was not a big deal, felt good actually ...however....

The year and months leading up to 35 were a bit nerve-racking. It was fine though. I hear turning 50 is the one where women just go ape shit.
I heard 30 was great for women because the sex is electrifying. yay or nay?

Is life gonna be that hard?? I mean.. When I was a child the only thing I heard was teenage is the time one has to hold themselves together n stuff..but mine went pretty good..a little bumpy..but all good.It was nothing like I was told.In my late teens I heard 20's is the time when you should be getting your shit together, else you're doomed for life.It doesn't seem bad either.Again,I feel, people just exaggerated.
Now all I hear is life is gonna be tough.Get married..but don't expect good things.Have children.. But life is never gonna be the same.Then there will be this menopause phase..N your life is over.You'll crumble, cripple n wither away.
But why are we told these things? Can't we just survive everything without being warned or told? I mean they don't help anyway.Am I just too young to not be able to understand or am I missing out on something?

everything they tell you about life is right and wrong at the same time. the only way to really experience it is to just go through it blindly and hope for the best. and mennooopauuseee oyyyy...im not looking forward to that either. but at the very least I can be crazy with reason har har

I feel scared now -I won't feel content until I think things are starting to be where I want them to be. I think I will be happier when I'm a bit older tbh. Always thought it.
aw hey fox. don't be scared, you're 21. alcohol will always be your friend at this point. lol jp. it would be foolish not to fear the unknown , but with time comes experience and that will better prepare you for what lies ahead.

27 was big for me, too. I remember having this conversation with my mother in a grocery store about a path to choose. Are you going to keep moving around starting new things, or are you going to build something here that lasts.

I didn't settle down and didn't stick to one thing but I did become more focused on an actual direction.
that's the thing that irks. the whole building something that last or starting something new. maybe its my saturns return? I don't even know if im actually going through it...but im already making changes in my life such as my career that gets me doubting if its the right choice. I know all decisions impact you in one way or another, but I feel like the decisions that we are up against now would really affect everything down the road

This speaks to me a lot currently.

I think that's what I really tried to avoid thinking about. Just making the decisions at the time that felt right and have faith in them for the now, not for the future. It's turn out the way it'd turn out.

30 is a big year, life becomes a little more serious...37 was the year for me...life became very serious and sex gets way way better with age.

I agree with embracing suffering, it's going to happen bad times and good times. Just no matter what hold on to your husband..

Just sayin
hold on to my husband? oh nooo! are young bitches going to come take him?! im going to lock him up in a tower if they do lol

Yeah in the 20s you're broke, the world hates you, no one respects you and everyone is trying to sell you on keeping the status quo.


It's easy for people to doubt themselves under all those forces. but it gets smoother eventually.
Tiz needs a hug lol......






I need a hug ='(

LMAO jk life is good.

Age scares me because its full of expectations within given time frames.I have come to terms that I already failed to meet most of them and I have to live with those consequences. Its not so bad. I prefer to remember the times I chose to do something I wanted. If I ever reached the age 60' its all going to be the same thing anyway. Time slows down and you ask yourself, is it time yet?

Personally, I worry about being diagnosed with an illness and/or ambulates dependently with a device.

The worries in our 20s is normal I guess. Were trying to find our footing and setting foundations.

Im just rambling
I really liked your first two sentences. And you're right, after 60 you question if tomorrow will be another day you'll get to see

Being unable to get it up terrifies me. So whatever age that happens is what I fear.
Thankfully I have Mars in Cancer to rectify any of those kinds of concerns with sex, pun intended.

Where is your Mars?
Right.
You didn't answer my question.
Correct. I refuse to countenance the suggestion that the Mars affects such things.
So quit crying about your problems here then, stupid.

If you are not going to discuss the root of the matter, then fuck off with your problems.

Nice. I like that.

Your metabolism isn't slowing, YOU'RE slowing.

Fun fact, it's a total freaking myth that your metabolism slows down. Not true. We get less active as we get older.
I am sorry this is just simply not true... Although it depends greatly how we treat our bodies...

It is like any animal we all brake down over time. Sure there are ways of delaying it but one day we will no longer move. I am not trying to be depressing or anything it is the natural things of life and holds it's own beauty.

Fuck it, I don't even care.

Believe what you want, hippie.
lol I am not a hippie... I was not born during that time period... It was a simple observation. Just as you state you don't care obviously you do or you would not have replied. It is ok I understand you are sensitive. I wish I could say I care but I had nothing better to do... Simple right... 🙂
