i never really divided my life between good shits and bad shits until 30

a solid, regular bowel movement is the true measure of happiness. lol @ all you 20somethings worried about finding "the right girl." The right girl is sun maid.

Yeah, I always had a bad stomach, but after 30 things really went to poo poo to the point I've been letting doctors poke things into holes I didn't used to have things poked into. I'm really hoping it gets solved, but tbh I'm kinda expecting to be stuck with a kinda strict diet for the rest of my life. When I was home over the holidays and found my parents had a bag of prunes, instead of being like "ha ha poop problems", I was happy to see they got the good kind.

On the bright side, my pay grade has increased significantly, I've become more attractive just because having a full head of hair and healthy weight is beating the odds, and the beard I grew so I wouldn't have to shave over the drat bleeding mole just above my lips suddenly has a bit of salt in the pepper and is looking good.

Turned 38 early December.

Body isn't recovering from injuries as easily. Fat ain't going away either without a total overhaul of my diet. Combined with now taking care of my mother (she has MSA) and the fact that my dad died at 61 from cancer makes me very aware of my own mortality.
Late 30's can suck if you haven't started to build good lifestyle habits when you're younger.

Stay in shape though. I feel like that and holding onto your hair is vital.

Drank Coke my whole life and around 28-29 it was causing me stomach issues and I switched to pepsi and the problem was solved. Felt like I had razors in my stomach for several months, had no idea what the source was.

Also have had to adjust my diet substantially, early 30s now, not looking forward to further metabolism changes.

I'm 35 and I still look alright. I was married, but now I'm not. No kids. I'm basically healthy and fairly fit since I haven't done sit-down office stuff since my late 20s. I don't really have much going for me financially, but whatever. I'll probably stay single because it's good to be able to do whatever and not have to pick up someone else's crap.

For example, I was recently on a trip to South-East Asia, in which there are a lot of white girls in their early 20's travelling. I managed to create the persona of a visual artist who was travelling through the region on sabbatical from a course at a School of Design. This is not accurate at all; I have no interest in visual art and I am certainly not studying it. But on a street market in one of the nations I passed through, I saw a vendor selling sketch books which included beautiful sketches of the region. As it was in quite an obscure market and I didn't see any other vendors selling something similar, I purchased the book, and in the hostels I subsequently stayed in I passed it off as being my own work. This gave me a lot of success with the women in those hostels.

Yeah, how embarrassing and pathetic :rolleyes:

31 is not that old. If you really want your own kids, I'm sure there are plenty of single, no-kids, fat women in their mid 20s who you could shack up with.

I hosed around throughout my 20s, I'm not at a point where I should be having kids yet. a few years ago I decided to turn it around, so now I am on the third year of my degree, so there will be at least 4ish years before I am stable and wealthy enough to afford it (I plan to go to graduate school, and this requires moveing to another city/country)

I could date my class mates, they are all in the same boat as me, but of course I am just old enough that trying this makes me creepy. those fat 25 year olds want kids right away, they don't want to wait for me to finish graduate school :shrug: I have resigned myself to loneliness.

My hairline is receeding and I have been out of high school for longer than some of the kids currently in high school have been alive.

My left shoulder is sore all the time and my right knee is starting to pop and give out. And I don't understand current slang.

You're loving nuts, if I weren't married I would've been raw meat in a tiger pit in my grad program and I was a good 5-6 years older than some of my classmates at the time. Not to mention the undergrads I taught that actively hit on me.

Go get laid and quit making excuses, you are at a prime dating age for at least another 5 years depending on how you present yourself

I am not in grad school yet, my class mates are 10+ years older than me. I can't hit on the grad students because they are the ones grading my papers

not that I don't try, I was just never very good at it to begin with

yeah some people just hate the written word and some don't and I don't get it at all

they hate writing and they hate reading and there must be a lot of them because broadband brought us video courses/tutorials everywhere for everything, like bandwidth made a lot of people breathe a sigh of relief, "finally I can just look and listen!" while I'm like "just give me a page with written text"
