Posted: 7/22/2006 5:22:13 PM | F*** that clock.
There's a bunch of stuff I've done since I turned 30 that I'd never done before. It's nice because I have the money to do those things, and I can make the time since I'm single. | |

If you think you're that much closer to death because you're now over 30...relax. You could have died just as easily when you were 29.
I wouldn't want to relive my earlier years for anything. | |

The point is, you're going to grow older anyways, so just make the most of your years. | |

Posted: 7/22/2006 9:12:47 PM | I recently turned 35... and am also now single for the first time in 10 years. Now I'm thinking, damn, I'm too fricken old now to hang out at bars/nightclubs... It would have been fine 10 years ago, but now? Its just pathetic.
BUT.. like someone said earlier, I can afford to do things now that I couldn't when I was 25.
So... the way I look at it, being 35 may suck for me relationship wise... but outside of that, its not too bad. | |

Posted: 7/23/2006 9:26:20 AM | Hmmmm, I have a friend (lots of friends actually) who are over 30. I am going to be 31 in a few weeks and I am dreading it.
But as my friends and family have reminded me, their lives really picked up once they got into their 30s. When you are in your teens, you are still a child. When you are in your 20s you are disillusioned about life. When you are in your 30s and beyond, life gets better. You know what you want, you know how to get it and all the small things in the world that seemed so large when you were in your 20s, are really small things. Just drops in the swimming pool of life.
The clock isnt ticking for me anymore as I cant have more children. But I am looking forward to finding someone who loves me for who I am and doesnt want me to be someone I am not. | |

Posted: 7/23/2006 10:38:57 AM | | I have to say that now that I'm past the 35 marker (OMG) these are definitely the BEST days of my life. I've never had this much fun! YES being over 30 is better! You're only as old as you feel. Live each day like no other! | |

Posted: 7/23/2006 11:09:19 AM | | well thanks for the advice,Being over 30 when your girl has left you you are single.I was doing better in my younger years,that was the time for me.also I have childeren,thatI get to see barley ever.If you got it I guess it would be cool.But suppose you don,t ?It was great when I was younger,wild and carefree,concerts,The DEAd,it was fun ,reality today it ain,t fun today?I guess some people get lucky in other ways.Now in the eye of certain woman,I am a loser with no licence.That didn,t matter that much when I was younger,I have dated younger and older,but no one around my age? | |

Posted: 7/23/2006 11:34:13 AM | | Wow. Maybe a slight change in attitude is in order. Life after 35, whether single or not is the best. By then you "know" who you are (or you should know that by then) and you have the ability to live life on your own terms. If you are newly single, stop worrying about finding a replacement. Learn to live life without needing someone there to help you do it. Concerts/etc., aren't fun anymore??????????...I simply do not agree. You have a lot of life ahead of you ~ either get busy living or get busy dying. It's all up to you. | |

I anticipate.

Posted: 7/23/2006 11:59:17 AM | | My turning point was 35 too! In fact, was determined to get happy, and happy I got! Life is great, sex is great! Once I learned to love and respect myself, the clock turned back 20 years. I am sure, life and sex will get even better. I've dated men 20 years apart, and mature men are way better lovers, way more in tune to what a passionate woman needs and wants, no offense youngins, the best is yet to come! ;) | |

Posted: 7/23/2006 12:21:34 PM | | I am dying inside,That is something I guess I can not change,concerts are fun if you have the money,I will bet you my childs mother has enough ,even if she does not work?I dated a girl that was older than me with 5 children,she was doing fine.If you are in the money bracket of 25K to 50K you are beat?You can fight it but most men will lose.That why alot of women won,t date men that don,t have children at home.They allready know unless you are stupid ,want a piece,or are understanding on what they would have to go threw,or they want a sperm doner.This is my reality,probablly alot of men that are in my place,that are to uneducated,or don,t have the money or time to tell this.My own sister is 31 and married,I have to send her money,because her husbands EX allways wants more money.It really takes a very stong woman.but I don,t think that there is many where I have lived.I just do not know where does money and real love have incommon.Money can buy sex ?I have already found that out,attraction too,but not love,I could have made millions,but I want a woman to love me not my bank account.People in love may have nothing but each other? | |

Posted: 7/23/2006 4:33:54 PM | Who cares about the clock? I love being over 30 (over 40 now). I have money. My job pays well, I like it, and I finally have authority to go along with the responsibility. I own property. I get respect. I do what I want when I want. I wouldn't go back to my 20s and being broke all the time, stuck in dead-end jobs, dreading having to get up in the morning and go to a job I hate, being a peon who got no respect and working my ass off 24/7 just to keep my head above water. Who would want to go back to that?
Well, I take it back. I might go back, but only if I could go back knowing all the things I've learned over the last 20 years or so, and not have to learn them all over again.

Posted: 7/23/2006 11:19:28 PM | I don't worry about the clock. I think (for me) it is better being over 30 as I seem to have matured into someone I am quite happy being.
I know what I want (more or less) and am willing to wait for the right person and not "settle" as I may have done in the past?

Posted: 7/24/2006 9:24:53 AM | My advice would be to buy a digital clock.That will rid you of having to deal with the annoying ticking noise.Problem solved  | |

The clock seems to be ticking a little faster now?
I smashed that clock up long before it could start ticking. That way I choose what I want (and don't want) to do. | |

Posted: 7/24/2006 11:23:35 AM | | I love being over 30!!!! I finally figured out what I want to be when I grow up : ) and went back to school to achieve my goals. I've moved beyond all that crap that seems to plague the 20s, I actually really like the person that I am and what I've chosen to do with my life. If my 30s are this great, I can only imagine the fun when I hit 40! | |
