Do you believe life gets "better" as we age?

It depends. I mean I get when you’re just starting out in life especially when you’re working you don’t make a lot of money. So that is an issue for pretty much everyone. But as you get older you tend to make more money, especially for men. But if you still have the same attitude about a lot of things it can be good or bad. I think a lot of people n even at an early age can change things in life. If someone is always negative they will probably be negative as they get older. So even if they are making more money life is still miserable for them. You can’t predict everything in life that is going to happen but you can at least kind of prepare for it. I tend to think for women it gets worse, especially when they’re single.

In some ways. Physically, you're more limited. However, you've also (hopefully) learned a lot and gained some wisdom and become more at peace with things.

Plus, let's just be honest. You also know that your number will be up at some point and you won't have to see things get worse 😆

Yes the happiest women I've ever met were 70+ and living their best lives. I'm honestly super excited to be old. Young life is stressful and lots of work

Maybe but when you hit the big 4-0 you start coming to terms with your mortality.

I believe that life can get better, but it's not gonna just get better on it's own. We gotta make our lives better. It's like a wise person I used to know would say, if you want change, be the change.

It peaks around 30. As you get older things do not work as good as they did. You need glasses, you lose muscle tone, your joints get a little achy and you sometimes feel listless.

life doesn't get better or worse just by one factor alone... it doesn't work like that and it is never that simple

Twalli · Answer

No, it might not get worse, but it doesn't get better. If anything "adulting" is difficult. You really don't realize how much your parents do for you until they aren't doing it anymore.

Only for men and married women; for single women it gets much worse.
