Okay. First of all , how old ARE you ?. Okay second of all , how old do you FEEL?
I dont think how old you look is valid because it doesnt matter. If you care to explain why you feel the age that you feel , feel free to. ( I used the word " feel way too many times)
I am 21 but because of the way we goof around sometimes I feel like i’m 11 or 12.
Okay, now it’s your turn. 
I’m really 25, but I swear to God I feel like I’m a 21 year old all over again.
What matters is that I still feel young and invincible.

Okay, so it’s not such a big jump.
I’m a few days shy of 39 but right now I feel about 70.
But that could be because of this nasty little virus I seem to have picked up somewhere.
Most days I just feel 50.
Right now I feel 95, but I just got off work, so that’s to be expected.
At best, I usually feel 19, which is good because I was having good times at 19.
I’m 23, so 19 isn’t all that far off, either.
I’m 32. 33 day after tommorrow. I can’t be sure how a person much older than me actually feels but I am betting that I feel at least 45. I have a slipped disc and my siatic (spelling?) nerve burns like a red hot sliver of glass being driven into my right cheek and heading for my ankle. I have to do a series of stretches before I can even consider getting out of bed in the morning. Live it up while you can guys and dolls.
Gee… everyone says they feel older today. ::evil grin::
Everything is going according to my plan.
I’m 18. Some days I feel silly and light headed, much like a child…In fact I feel LESS adult having become legal. Like I’m seven or eight.
Right now, feeling disillusioned, bitter, etc…I feel about thirty, maybe forty. Goddamned kids…
Although I look really young- I could pass for twelve. Ah, there is a multitude of ages coursing through my veins!!
I’m 22. Instead of doing research tonight I’ve been playing Railroad Tycoon, so I feel about 15. On one hand, I can’t drive legally and I have to be up early for first period physics tomorrow, but at least my stock has split 2 for 1 and boom times are ahead!
I’m 28, and I have a hard time accepting that I’m not 19-24, since those were pretty great years. (OK, I guess that’s a cliche.) I guess I almost feel my age, because i feel a bit older than people who are a bit younger. Except that I can’t imagine that I’ll be 30 soon. People keep thinking I’m younger, which weirds me out because up until a couple years ago I looked older.
OK, so far, I’m the “old man” of the group here - I’m 41.5 almost to the day (OK, on Thursday 14 Nov exactly)
Depending on the day, I feel 16 or 80. I almost never feel like I’m approaching 42.
It’s funny - when I was in my 20’s, I never really felt much of anything at all, let alone a different age. As I’ve gotten older, though, I actually feel more like a kid than I did when I was a kid. When I don’t have to be professional and businesslike (ack!) I can be the most foolish and care-free little boy there is. Put me on my morotcycle and you will never convince me that I’m not 16 - never. Same kinda goes for when I go out and play in my Jeep …
I keep thinking that maybe I’ll feel different at 45, or maybe 50. But if I don’t feel all that different now than I did at 30 or 35 or 40, maybe I won’t in five or ten years either.
Oh, yeah - all you “young-un’s” up above my post there who are going on about how awful it is at 20-something or how the high school and college years were “the best years” and all that - I have a few words for you:
I’m smiling, and laughing a little, at you from a place closer to the grave …
I’m 22, but I feel 30. Not comfortable 30, but the kind of 30 where you wish you were 20 again…or even 16. I’ve emotionally matured far beyond most of my peers (which makes it very hard to find a girlfriend worth spending time with), but I don’t want to feel like I’m above them. I want to be silly like a teenager with friends, but I want them to enjoy it nostalgically, not because the silliness makes sense to who they are right now.

[sub]btw…if you’re a straight woman in your early 20’s and feel the same way, send me a note.[/sub]
I’m 29, 30 in a couple of months.
After a night on the town, I feel 57.
Most of the time, I feel about my age. I can feel a lot younger, but I’d have to get in shape for that.
I’d love to relive the 18 to 24 period of my life. College years, how I miss 'em.
I just turned 26 a couple of months ago. Due to my hanging around little kids some of the time, I feel like I’m at most 12 sometimes. Other times, I worry too much and all that kind of thing, (just because you don’t have a job and such does NOT mean you don’t have stress or anything to worry about!) On those days, I feel maybe 45 at least. There are the times when I feel like I’m starting to become an old lady with various aches and pains already, so that might make me feel at least 60 or so. Then again, when I’m with my friends (depending on how old they are), I feel like I’m in my mid- to late teens, maybe early twenties.
Using the most liberal estimates of “mid-teens to early twenties” for my calculations, it all averages out to about 32 years old. Still some years away.

My smashingly witty post was poorly timed to coincide with the hamsters’ nap, so it’s gone to join the choi… :checks clipboard: Hooray! I unconsciously copied it:
Okay, so it’s not that witty. Whaddya want, it’s late. And it’s kind of misrepresentative: I’m not really such a cranky, boozy, weed-crazed premature-ejaculator. Really.
My inner etymologist parses this typo as “time pushed aside by the stars” which seems almost poetic at the moment, which probably means I ought to go to sleep.
G’night all.
I’ll be 49 in January. Most of the time, I’m amazed that I’m that old. I feel like I should still be in my 30s. But there are times when mortality stares me in the face, or maybe I’m just dwelling on it since my dad’s death. When I’ve been doing a lot of physical stuff that I’m not used to (I’m talking gardening and home repair here, you pervs!!) I feel like I’m a step or two away from rigor mortis.
Still, I have a young attitude - that’s what matters, right?
I’m glad the older dopers feel young enough to keep up with the little ones. Otherwise… there would be anarchy!
: Just kidding:
I’m 21. The age I feel varies between 15 and about 40.
