As long as I don’t develop heart conditions I will be fine in the physical department old men are scientists And they have no problems with there Brain or heart ❤️ not sure what will happen so I’m not really Scared of aging I think it will be interesting to find out what I look like and how my Physical body works When I’m an old man and I’m curious to see how long I can live
There’s a dude he was 119 years old last time I saw a video of him he runs all the time and because of running 🏃‍♂️ he has lived so long
Im sure he’s still alive but I’d like to live Till I’m 200 years old if I can after all that dude made it to 119 as long as I’m in better health than that dude I’ll make it to at least 140 years old or more but I most definitely Ain’t dying from a heart condition fuck that heart pains and Shit be cramping up like how a leg cramp is fuck that no way would I have a heart condition and if To never have a heart condition one has to never have anxiety stress Sadness that kind of thing I’m perfect and have nothing to worry about

Shit as a woman, now it's the worry/fear of being dropped/replaced. Lol okay joke aside, I would have to say not being able to move around or care for myself as much as when I was younger. Hopefully I'm not to frail where I have to be in bed most of the time or be in a old folks home.. unless it's really nice and the people are nice and I feel like I'm at a resort everyday. In that case sign me up!

That I end up like my mom. In a home, that I settle into, get comfortable. Claming this is as best as it gets and just stay working for someone always until I think retirement is where it's at least.

I don’t mind dying. I don’t want to grow physically feeble or mentally go Joe Biden. I have an exit strategy. I’m putting in my will that if I have a heart attack, stroke, aneurysm or otherwise blow a gasket banging a young woman, she gets the first $50,000 of my estate.

Probably about how it’ll be harder to do things once you're elderly. I honestly dont think about it too much since I dont see myself living that long anyway.

karin1985 · Answer

My biggest fear about getting older is that there are still many unfulfilled ideals and many places I want to go that I haven't gone to. So now take the time to live each day well, discover the beauty in life, and face each day happily.

The loss of freedom. My mom, 74, can't do anything without assistance. She can barley walk, can barley use her hands and can barley see. She is completely dependant on others. Thats my fear with aging. The loss of freedom.

I would not want to live as an incontinent, dribbling, bed ridden old fart. I would hate to lose my dignity. My kids know that if I ever have an illness likely to lead to that situation I would want only palliative care.
