Countdown to 30

Just remember this theory:


You are not 30. You are 29 with experiance.
 
I dunno. I hit 30 a couplea months ago and I don't feel any different. Just the same as I always was. I haven't even lived half of my life yet. Take some deep breaths and get a lil' perspective. It's just another year like any other. Freak out when menopause hits. You're allowed, it goes with the hotflashes and the oh my gawd, estrogen therapy????? screams you can hear echoing down the halls at the doctor's office. :) Then hang on, they do tell they're the best years of your life.
 
MH, I'll tell you the same thing I told my wifes' cousin last week, when she turned 30. Well, one of the things I told her anyway...

One day, you'll look back and laugh at how silly you felt about a day that really wasn't such a big deal after all.

Don't get me wrong MH, turning any number with a 0 at the end for some reason is a big deal mentally, but when that birthday comes, you do realize it wasn't any big deal, don't you?
 
30 is a good age to be.

I like it so much I'm still 30.
 
Know how you are feeling...thought the same thing when I turned 30 last year....Now I am going on 31 wondering why I made such a big deal over 30. ;)
 
MH? I had a really hard time when i turned 30. No matter what anyone says, for some of us, it's a rough one to accept.

Here's a little bit of semi-universal cym-version truths, though, if it'll help.

While your 30th bday may suck, and it'll be hard for a few days afterwards, too, there's something about actually being in your 30's that's incredibly liberating. You aren't confused and trying to sort out who you are, like when you were in your 20's. You're likely to have more money and more free time cuz your job situation will be secure and you won't be working those minimum wage lowest-rung service industry jobs anymore. Your sexuality becomes an integrated part of who you are as a woman and you begin to test yourself in terms of what you need in that arena.

Life becomes richer in your 30's MH. You finish all your education and/or finish having your kids. You begin taking those grown-up vacations you've always thought about, trips to places to placs like Amsterdam for the tulips and Munich for Oktoberfest and wherever the running of the bulls occurs in Spain. You buy a house then, or remodel the one you have. You buy grown-up furniture, too, and finally understand why your mother was always worrying about ice cream and the car upholstery. You can nab any younger man you want - and all the older men you can use up.

Life is good for a woman in her 30's, darlin'.
Don't sweat it.
:cool:

I am freaked out.

I've had an unofficial countdown ticking away in my head for the past three months, but now that I turned 29 it feels as if the seconds are ticking faster.

You may think it's silly, being so concerned over an age. Age is all mental, right? You're only as old as you think.

I agree with all of this, which makes it doubly frustrating that my feelings are betraying me. Why is 30 such a landmark of despair for me?
Take it from someone who is approaching 50, turning 30 years old is nothing - nada! You are in the middle of your prime - and your Av attests to that!

You have at least a good 20-30 years to go until you need to even start thinking about feeling old. If I hadn't had 7 car wrecks and 3 motorcycle wrecks, I would still be in prime shape. People tell me they often mistake me for someone in his thirties.

You are at the perfect age; you have a good ten years experience as an adult, you have the body of that a sculptor or erotic photographer would kill for :p, and you can use that body for decades to come. Enjoy and rejoice in your life and don't worry about some stupid date on the calendar - it is just another day and life is too short to worry about such things.

I experienced the same type of time ticking furiously sensation when I turned 29, too. I made several major changes in my life and they've all ended up being positive. By the time I actually turned 30, it was no big deal. I'd spent the entire year avoiding it, trying to evade the experience and denying that it was happening.

Try to figure out what it is about turning 30 that is causing you to be emotional about it. Then do what you can to change the situation and go on living your life.

By the way, it seems that the furious ticking stays with you forever once it starts. It defenitely hasn't stopped for me yet.
