Slouching towards thirty

[kellinator]

Today is my half-birthday.

I'm now closer to 26 than 25.

Yes, I logically and intellectually know that 26 is not old. Unfortunately, our neuroses rarely listen to logic and intellectualism.

Try turning 24 while dating a youngun'...

I sympathize whole-heartedly, but at least you aren't dating someone five years younger than you are who keeps going "*How* old are you going to be in Novemeber, again?" and then giving a disbelieving "Wow" when you say 24. Or repeatedly asks if you're going to be 24 or 25. He shuts up when I ask if I need to go and get his teething ring out of the freezer, though...

Oh gosh... Around this time last year I was 24 and dating a 19-year-old. It lasted two weeks. He was really nice, but soooo... young! Based on that and one other, incredibly bad experience, I have since vowed not to date anyone born during the Reagan administration.

*snicker* frighteningly enough, he may be the grownup in our relationship...

Hey, thanks for adding me!
