Oh for Heaven's sake, calm down. I always thought I would never live to see 18. Now I'm 42, I"m not going to waste one minute worrying about getting older.

LOL OMG I am 25 too and 30 is the age I always thought was old when I was a teenager. That is the age that is over the hill to me!!! Yikes....I feel like in a couple months I'll be 26 and I'll be closer to 30 than to 20!!!!! SCARY! but my mom always told me you're lucky some people never get to make it to that age...be thankful for every birthday you have.....I know it's hard :)

Have no fear of reaching 30- Your 30's are your prime years because you're smart enough to make good decisions and not too old to be "tired out" all of the time. I am in my early 30's now and I love it! It's the age where you truly feel like a woman, not just a girl. I dread turning 40 though!

I don't really have a specific age that I am scared of reaching, it is more for me about how I look.......at what age will it start to show. I am 32 now and I feel 20, so it doesn't bother me with the number, just the fine lines and my body starting to feel old is what scares me the most.

None. At 30 you're still young, feeling and looking good. I'd say 25-35 are probably the best years out there. I'm 27 and I finally understand what I want from life, and know to appreciate all that I have. Closer to 40 your looks might diminish a little bit, but chances are you'll be with someone by then and you'll both be aging, so as long as you didn't get together just for looks, it won't make much of a difference. Plus by then you'll probably have kids in the house, so you'll find new meaning in life through them.
Around 50 your kids are going to move out, you'll feel a little empty from that, but you'll find that you now have more time to rediscover all of the things that you liked in life, plus, if your kids have kids, as long as you have a good relationship with them, they'll let you spend a bunch of time with your grandkids, so that's fun too.
When you get closer to 60, you'll probably have some health issues, but you'll also be getting closer to retirement age, and if you've had the opportunity and the wits to set something aside for your "golden years", then you'll have a great time traveling, or finding new hobbies. You'll still spend time with your grandkids, plus you can help others by volunteering with different charities.
Around 70 or 80 your life will probably start slowing down, but you won't mind. Hopefully you'll have lived through many wonderful experiences and have been a good mother and friend that you'll be surrounded with loving family and friends. You can spend your final years just enjoying those relationships.
All in all, life isn't that bad, I think. With every 10 years or so you loose something (like looks/health), but gain something (more family/time/money). As long as you invest for your future financially and invest time and love into the people around you, you'll spend the rest of your life in relative comfort and with the people you love by your side.
So age is not something I'm worried about. The only thing that I'm kind of nervous about is the next stage in my life, where I get married and have kids. I'm always worried that I'll settle down with someone that's not quite right for me, and won't realize it until it's too late. I'm 27 now and I know many great people, so I have many friends, but none of my girl-friends I can see as a potential mate. So I'm worried that after not finding the right person for so long, I'll settle down for someone who's not right for me and then live to regret it.
So I think that as long as you pick the right person to spend your life with, you'll be prepared to take on aging without major fears.

I'm scared of turning 18 in two years, because that's when I'll graduate from high school, and have to go out and apply for college, maybe a part-time job...I may move out for the first time, into a dorm, which scares me a bit. Also, I think that's when I'll start having to worry about bills, such as car insurance.

I'd say 40. I'm turning 29 this year, and you'd think that 30 would scare me, but it doesn't! I look and feel better than I did when I was 25, and even 20!

Any age is better than being dead.So many of my friends have already passed on and I am 56.I use to think 50 was too old to be alive,but hey,any age that allows me health and the chance to spend time with my family is good for me.

Mine was 30. I turned 30 last July. I am married with kids so it is not AS bad as I thought but it is still bad. I guess I am a real adult now. That sucks! :-(
