So as the title says, Friday was my 22nd. It's really hitting me now that I'm classed as an adult. After feeling like a kid for so long & still pretty much looking like one, I'm not ready to accept adulthood I honestly still feel like I'm about 18, these last few years just flew by. I'm now the same age Randy Orton was when he debuted in 2002. I have 2 years to become a wrestler, get signed by WWE & beat his record as the youngest world champion in history. Honestly feels like just the other day that I turned 12, this is mad. I couldn't get over 2003 being 10 years ago last year. It was the first time in my life that it hit me that a vivid time in my life was so long ago. Anyway, hopefully I can make the absolute most of my twenties

Growing up sort of does suck I'm only 19 but people say I look 14 since I look young I guess. I honestly don't think I'll ever get out of the kid in me, because being an adult with no interests is pretty boring.

You feel old at 22? Well then, you aren't going to like the late 20s, when your body starts slowing down on you. Enjoy this time while you can.

Just because you can be considered an adult doesn't mean you are one. It's all about the mentality.
Anyway, happy late birthday

I'm 36 this year, and I'm really starting to feel old... My job history of Oil Rigs, Seamping, Construction, and Security doesn't make aging better! Live it up, cause it all goes fast after 21.

Anyway, hopefully I can make the absolute most of my twenties I know the feeling & it's tough to look at what orton or lebron james did at an early age, but if you haven't gotten anyone pregnant, don't owe child support, and no criminal record...I'd say you're doing pretty fantastic

Being an adult sucks... largely. I hate having to live within a budget, making sure a crap ton of different bills are paid. I'm not even a parent yet...
22 is kind of a meh year, but you are still young enough where less is expected from you and it's generally not a big deal, when you start getting into your mid and late 20's you feel a bit of a drop in your constitution and people quickly start expecting much more from you.

happy belated birthday mate.
i am 22 also and i am loving it. i started my first full time job last year (granted work is a bummer) but i now have money and can do whatever i like. i do so much more things nowadays and have generally a much better outlook on life.
of course there are days when i wish i was a broke student eating ramen noodles, because hey it was easy and stress free! but it was also empty and hollow.
at 22, i feel much more 'whole' as a person even though i'm still young enough to find what it is i want in life and pursue it!

Age is just a number man. I miss the innocence of childhood and its often crazy to think about how quickly time passes. But in a lot of ways I enjoy my life more now than I did ten years ago. Ill be 30 in September

Growing up sort of does suck I'm only 19 but people say I look 14 since I look young I guess. I honestly don't think I'll ever get out of the kid in me, because being an adult with no interests is pretty boring. Enjoy being the age you are currently. I am 25 going on 26 in October. I already know what my interests are at this juncture of my life. From reading up on history, to being a wrestling fan, and being a lover to Irish women, I already know what I want for the rest of my life. I remember when I was 19, people thought I was 24-25 years old. Much like how when I was 16 and people thought I was a teacher. You feel old at 22? Well then, you aren't going to like the late 20s, when your body starts slowing down on you. Enjoy this time while you can. Don't mention it buddy. As I noted above, I'll be 26 later this year. Even at my age, I am feeling it. I already had hernia surgery in my groin area and I has a severe case of pancreatitis on Christmas Day. I am still feeling the affects of both surgeries. Hell, I still have the scars to prove it.

Hell, I still have the scars to prove it. I turned 28 in October, & had shoulder surgery in January. So I know what you mean about feeling the difference. I'll be thrilled if my "new" being at 100% is my "old" 85%. Its just so damn strange when you want your body to do something you've done so many times before, & its a struggle or you can't do it at all.

HHH316, you know from experience that once you get surgery, your body is never the same. Life is a struggle. Once we are born, things are bound to happen. While age is just a number to some, others might view their birthday's as something special. We struggle each day both mentally and physically.
