I am 46 but l will be 47 in November am l old

Advanced middle age

"Old" is always fifteen years older than I am.

You're a long way from 82, so you're not old.

1. You probably don't look that young. Everyone "looks young" because people are bad at estimating ages and will flatter each other by under-estimating their age.

2. It makes sense to go after younger women, but that doesn't mean you yourself look young, it just means you are relatively attractive.

3. You don't start "going after women that look like your dead grandma." You should have locked down a woman by then.

4. You're not that old. You're not young but I'm sure when you're 60+ you'll look back at age 46 and think you still felt young.

Think of life as gaining experience, not aging or getting older.

You are way older than the old F Tom Brady. You old as F.

You are extremely insecure about your age bro, and obviously you haven't matured a bit, at least you can tell that to younger woman.

You think woman don't notice that? Another measure to indicate that you are OLD, if the woman you are trying to pick up can be your daughter, yes you are old, you are a daddy.

Running good times has nothing to do with how old are you, most woman don't give a flying F. about your running times. Lastly, you can't take time back, unless you want to be like that insane Dutch guy that wanted to legally change is age from 69 to 49.

Nothing spells loser better than an insecure man.

P.S. Grow up.

If you don't have some serious birth defect or illness or injury, missing legs or broken brain, forget about being old. Did you get to live up until now without that stuff? Will you probably wake up tomorrow without it?

Once you start looking back with regret at all those things you wanted to do but never did, yep, old. When you spend a lot of time talking about those god old days, yep, old.

When you are talking about Millard Hampton being a stud HS sprinter at Edison HS in Fresno and a guy comes on with,........cool the BS he was out of Silvercreek in San Jose, I was on the team. And you......I'm talking about his dad, yep, old.

Since Ringo Starr had a number one Billboard song( w/o the Beatles) the month you were born you bet your pipic you are old!

What age is old wrote:

What age is to old? There are still NFL players that are as old as me, in fact Bernard lagat is almost as old. The actor Ben Affleck is older then me.So am l that old guy? Can l still get women in their mid 20's or am l that old guy? I look about 35, infact most people don't think l am 46 or even close to that. I normally go after women between 40 and 33, but I prefer them in their mid 30's. I am fit and looking to run some good times. What age is it all downhill? When do you start going after women that look like your dead grandma?

Don't worry. Your emotional age is about 12.

With each passing day you are one day closer to death.

Mate, you're not just old, you've practically got one foot in the grave. You've got nothing to look forward to now except increasing decrepitude, loneliness, and death. Putting on the kettle is a major investment at your age, because you might not even be around by the time it boils.

I've been saying here for years that they ought to bring back euthanasia for anyone over 35. Why do most athletes have to retire before 35? Because that's the natural end isn't it? We need to bring back nature's law and terminate every old geezer when they reach 35. No loss 'cause they're all racist and prejudiced Brexit types like Coevett anyway - every single one of them.

What the**** is this^.

You are probably the oldest person to ever post on letsrun. Actually I don't think I've ever heard of anyone being as old as 46, let alone 47. You shouldn't look for women in their mid 30s. Instead you should be writing your will and getting rid of your junk. These are your final days, so use them wisely.

You are definitely on the precipice of old. If you were diligent about diet and exercise, you can pass among younger folk as not being old (at least until you start talking about apps, social media and pop culture). But that won't last. You will truly be old when you experience all of the following:

1. Can read without glasses

2. Can't sleep for more than 6 hours without having to pee

3. Find that all new pop music is derivative of either Depeche Mode or CCR.

4. Find it easier to get up at 4:30 am than to stay up until 2:00 am.

5. Look up old flames from HS and college on social media and see pics of them with their grandkids

6. Consistently fall asleep sitting up whenever you try to watch a movie at home after dinner.

7. React to any young person's complaint of modern inconveniences with stories about pay phones and collect calls

8. Have a better recollection of historic events from the 1970s and 1980s than the 2000s and 2010s.

9. Can't run for sh#t anymore

10. Ask your waiter at least three questions about the menu before finally ordering the most boring item on the menu.

I'm as old as you but, man..., you sound like 25 to me, which basically means screaming insecurity. The art of ageing is pretty straightforward. You start seeing more deficiencies, especially in the body department, but it's compensated for by more solid maturity. The mind, the mind, the mind, this is your future.

I am also 46, am definitely getting older but am not dead yet. Kids think I'm ancient, people 25 or under also think I'm ancient. My wife is 47 and we make the best of it we can of course. The alternative to getting old is a bit rough in my opinion.

Women in their 20s do NOT ogle after me, in fact I'm rather confident I annoy them, right up to the point where they discover I might be useful in their career and then suddenly that changes. Thats also how you know you're too old fwiw.

I feel like getting to this age has helped me back off a bit. I no longer have to be in the front of the 1st wave, I'm happy to hang out in the back of corral 1 with the other middle aged hobby joggers. Cheers.

I'd much rather have a woman that cares for me for who/what I am, and that means I need to fish in the [Age +5/-10 range] pretty exclusively, were I to ever to need to cast again. And I definitely dont look like I'm 23 anymore. Happens to everyone though. Every single person making fun of a mid 40 something will be there soon enough. Enjoy the ride.

Enjoying your old age?

Very accurate.

I guess 1. is a typo 'Can't read without glasses'.
