How did you feel when you turned 25? I feel a little sad but also excited about it?

[Paulalove98]

I'll be 25 this October and its still 6 months away from my birthday but I literally feel so anxious about it in a way yet also excited for the new beginning even though I feel like I had my mid quarter life crisis at 24 lol. People still ask me if im in college because i look young but im mentally way more mature than I was when i was younger for sure. I just feel so overwhelmed with how fast time has gone and 25 sounds scary and big in a way since it's halfways to 30.. im only worried and scared I won't have my goals by then but im trying to stay positive and hopeful.

I feel like this sums it up 😂

[Paulalove98]

Lol I don’t look old but I feel old mentally so I can feel it in an ancient sense

i remember people counting down for their sweet 16 birthday along with getting their learners permit followed by their license, people counting down till their 18th birthday where after they graduate high school they want to move out because their parents were "mean". Finally their 21st birthday so they can legally buy alcohol. now fast forward you have people wishing that they didn't waste their age away and wanting to rewind 😝

[Paulalove98]

Id love to tell my younger self not to rush and grow up so fast and want time to go by because its already going by way too fast lol

[Alex8736]

after your 21st birthday you blink and next thing you know your looking at your 30th birthday lol

[Paulalove98]

Im not trying to think of 30 yet I'll barley be 25 but if im where i wanna be by 30 then im excited but it's just nerveracking in a way.

[Alex8736]

some say 30 is the new 20

[Still-alive]

Well im turning 40 this year and there's some anxiousness about that for me too. my 30s felt like a blur.

but when the time comes im sure it'll pass. just don't dwell on it too much. you look amazing at your age.

[Blackcupcake]

I wouldn’t feel any different than any other birthday

[Bricealan]

Well, Like they told us in the Army,
"Be the Best you can be" at whatever age you are and that should be your goal. (Wish I were 25 again)

[Nikki1989]

It was just another day. Not a big deal.

[AmeerX]

Value your life. Don't try too hard for your goals. Enjoy it while you are young

[NostalgiaSenpi]

For me, not much much changed until I turned twenty eight and gave up on having a family of my own.

[Guardian45]

25 was a blur, cuz I was living life on the edge, ski racing, Paramedics, Search&Rescue, Formula1

[alearningboy]

Still 2 years to go so I dont now yet😀

[Danny_dan92]

Just another year of life honestly

[CrimsonAngel09]

I hated it.

[Paulalove98]

Why did you hate it?
