When I was in my 30s, people would gasp all wide-eyed and say, <em>"NO WAY!!!</em> I thought you were, like, twenty-something!"

When I was in my 40s, people would gasp all wide-eyed and say, <em>"NO WAY!!!</em> I thought you were, like, thirty-something!"

Now that I'm in my 50s, people are getting really good at guessing my real age. {#emotions_dlg.blink}

OMG the same here! Doesn't it bite?

It happened so fast! {#emotions_dlg.lol}

I have been so used to not looking at my age that when I finally did it was extremely hard to handle. I now know why they call it the change

{#emotions_dlg.lol}

Wait until you look in the mirror and all you can think is Neapolitan Mastiff!

I was walking my dogs past some workers who were doing some repair work on the water pipes under the street and one said I had a really good looking chocolate lab. Thanks guys.

So true. I get a lot of that with my dog when I go walking.

when you are ignored by most men....no matter how nice you are dressed, you are just not in their "age" pool for romantic interest.

By the time I hit 50, I was roundly ignored by men in all age groups, young and old. No longer the sweet young thang, I was a middle-aged "Mom" and invisible. Sigh.

That is a hard one to take. Even though I have been married forever it was nice when someone else noticed me every now and then. (ego) Where did the time go? Bummer

My husband did say to me the other day you are still sexy to me. He said if matters and I said sure it does but doesn't do nothing for my wrinkles. {#emotions_dlg.crying}

I guess I would have to say I know I AM older when I refer to people on TV as ""those kids."" They are in their 40's.

As a teacher, it's when you start teaching your former students' kids. Also, it becomes easier to stand rather than sit and try to get up!!

When the nurse doesn't bother to ask you at all.

When I used to be the hottest chick in the room and now I'm the oldest chick in the room, ha, ha. In my defense, I hang with a younger crowd, but still, as I tell my friends, it wasn't supposed to happen to US!

You know you look older when you accidentally put on your reading glasses to look in a mirror at the cosmetic counter and fine lines end up looking like canyons...
