AGE CHECK
 

In reading several post a day, I often wonder how old are the people who come to Greekchat and post? I feel very old when I read post like I'll never get divorced, I'll never commit adultry, I want to join a SORORITY because they are said to have pretty women, I'll challenge(which includes fighting) anyone who I think is not a part of my org.,etc.
Well I'm 36/Chicago/ I enjoy GC because it helps me relax when I get off work in the morning.

I'm 25 years old. I'll be 26 in July.

I feel old also http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif

don't feel old. I'm 27 & will be 28 on 9/30

I'm 22 (What a lovely number!) http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif from Cleveland, Ohio!

Yeah, I honestly can feel you on this one. I try not to reply to some of these posts because I don't want to sound like I am so much older and I know more. (But I do! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif)
I am 37 years young and loving life more everyday simply because I am older and wisdom comes with age. I just don't do the dumb sh-- I used to do in my 20's especially when it comes to what I do with my money and how I deal with men.

I'm 25 will be 26 on AUGUST 1, 2001 and I am from Cleveland as well.

DSTranquility, we have most likely met at either Soror Rae's talk or somewhere else on campus. I know your sands Snoopy but I met your whole line.

Chi_Zeta, I know what ya mean about feeling old on GC sometimes. I'm 29.5 LOL! I'll turn the big 3-0 on November 21st.

If I've learned one thing in my 29.5 yrs. on this earth, it is that one should never say what he/she will NEVER do.

Gosh, I'm looking forward to my 30s!

I'm 22 too and I think it's a wonderful number too, but obviosly we have different reasons, sisterfriend http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

You know they say " You are as old as You FEEL " and I MUST say I FEEL GOOD because I am just TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!!!

I'm 22 years old as well...and yes it is quite a lovely number! However, sometimes I forget and when people ask me how old I am, I still reply 21!!! Go figure!

And although I am still young, my family swears that I am a old person's soul just in a young person's body. I have always acted older than what I am. And sometimes that is really hard. When I am around people my own age, I see things a little differently, not with all the drama and piddly diddly mess. I don't see the point in stressing over a lot of things anymore! My friends like to say I see things as if I'm 42 instead of 22. And when I am around people much older they are sometimes shocked at my maturity!

I'm 35 and am loving my 30s!! Looking forward to my 40s and I KNOW than in my 50s you are not going to be able to tell me NOTHIN'!! (Hump, like you can now!! he he he) I recently celebrated a birthday and folks were saying to me "What is it, 29 again?" I was like "Heck NAAAAWWWWW!!! I'm 35 and proud of it!! I DO NOT want to go back to my 20s again!!"

I have a better sense of who I am and what I want at 35 than at 25, less concerned about what other people think about me while at the same time more sensitive to others (if you can understand THAT contradiction!) and much closer to GOD and what He wants from/of me.

Chi_ZETABBW, While I agree that some of the statements that you quoted in your post are the sign of immaturity, I think some are the sign of maturity! My Pastor likes to say you have the "guard your gate" (your mind) and watch what comes in it, because a thought leads to a feeling and a feeling to an action. I try very hard not to even THINK (don't always succeed though!)about divorce as an option for any marital strife that my husband and I may or have gone through. Sorry, I went off on that tangent, I know that was not what the post was about!!

Carry on!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

First whats up Nessa! (DZ Representing)

Ok, I'm 30 from Upper Marlboro,Md and I still get a kick when I get carded. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif
I also plan to turn 29 again on my birthday (yes I'm going backwards) and stay that way until it doesn't make sense for my son to have mother 29.

Yes!! We met at Soror Rae's event. I was probably the last person that you talked to before it started (I was late getting to the Union http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif). My sands Snoopy said she met with you last week, we'll have to get together sometime!!
P.S. What part of Cleveland are you from? My parents are in Shaker, but I spent my early years near Woodland Ave.

LOL, Soror, I know what you mean!! I spent a lot of time with my grandparents when I was small because my parents worked during the day, so I always thought I was as old as them!! My sister is also 8 and a half years older than me, so I never really had any time around younger children unless I went outside to play. I always had a different view on things, and I learned very early to let things roll off my back!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif So, it was no wonder that my line name is Tranquility. Don't get me wrong, though, I DO like to have fun and joke around (Snoopy can attest to this), sometimes too much!!

Greetings Sorors!

I'm 26, turning 27 on October 9th...I'm excited about getting older. I think as long as we still grow and accomplish our life goals, then getting older is a blessing and not something to be ashamed of.

Well I am 24 years old. A few of my opinions have changed the last two years since entering full adulthood; however, while I'm sure that I might view some things differently in the next ten years, some things may not change because it is my beliefs, convictions, morals, etc. I don't necessarily think it is a sign of youth to say one will never commit adultery. I'm not married but I have never cheated on anyone nor will I ever. I am a person who tries hard to stand by her word. My dad always said' A man is only as good as his word'. And I've learned that to be very true. So if I say I'm going to be in an exclusive relationship, then that's what I do. Also some people take marriage vows very seriously and are strong enough to adhere to those words through all things. If it's to the point of wanting to cheat, then I've always said, 'Leave first'. Don't even let it get to the point of hurting other's spirit as well as your own. And I definitely don't think that means one is just young or immature. That's just their values or beliefs. However, I will agree that the other things you pointed out may be a sign of inexperience and immaturity.

I'm 19... now I feel like a baby. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif

Thanks for the input! Seeing some sisterfriends and sorors in the same age bracket as myself makes me feel a little more connected in GC.
I'm loving 36! I LOVE IT! Getting older definitely means getting better in my life.
More financially secure, homeowner, luxury car, tell people to kiss my a$$ without a second thought, not worried about what others think of me and my decisions, I get more men now then I did in my early 20's(not that I'm looking, but it keeps my old man on his toes), the sex is better then ever. If 40's is better then 30's then I'm looking forward to it.
Also I don't think anyone marries with divorce in mind. I didn't! Thought I would be married forever. My regret is I didn't prepare myself for the consequences of divorce(I mean financially, mentally, emptionally). All I say is ladies enjoy your marriage, I did, but prepare your self for if things just don't work. Ok, enough with the lecture. LOL

Chi_Zeta,

I'm glad you asked the question about age. I'm surprised and happy to see that there are many age groups represented in this forum.

I just turned the big 3-0 in March. Born and raised in Cleveland, OH.

Hey Sorors,

I see CLEVELAND, OH up in here, up in here!!

I am 19! I feel like a baby. But I'll be 20 on June 19th---I won't be a teen anymore (((SNIFFLE)))!!!

Hello all Sisterfriends, I'm 31 and proud of it. A lot of people didn't make it to this age so I feel extremely blessed. I'll be 32 on Nov. 2nd. So here's a BIG shout out to all of the Scorpions on GreekChat. I agree with the philosophy that you're as young as you feel. Heck, as a matter of fact, I'll have everyone know that I'm 3 years OLDER than my husband. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif This goes to show you that age is only a number when it comes to ADULT relationships. Personally I think and feel that I'm a VIBRANT, YOUNG, SEXY, INTELLIGENT African-American woman (and my husband feels the same way because he tells me so EVERY DAY!!!!) http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif
