Answer 6

my grandpa died at 94 and in reality he stayed around 5 years old his whole life (not mentally just never lost his love of toys and playing)

Some people are old in their teens and others never "grow up".

Answer 7

You stop being young when you choose to...my great aunt used to grocery shop early in the morning to "avoid all those old people." She ws 92! :p  

Answer 8

with the average life expectancy around 75 - I'd say 40 is the beginning of middle age

Answer 9

i'm 30, and NOWHERE NEAR MIDDLE AGE....

my 87 year old grandmother bought a house because the "old people" at her retirement village were wearing her down.

Answer 10

Well, technically, middle age is half way between birth and the average life span of female/male.

Less technically, you stop being "young" the moment you begin to believe you are no longer young.  I'm gonna be 35 on 9/6 and although I'm halfway through my approximate expected life span, I am still young based on how I view the world around me, how I act and react, how I treat others, how my personality plays out everyday.

If I start acting like it's all ending soon and I can't have anymore fun because of my age, then I might as well not only consider myself "old" but pretty much "dead" as well.

Live and Enjoy it!  Don't worry about age.  The more you worry, the faster you'll "age."
