I used to wonder why people got so crazy about aging, even though they were in their 20s. In fact, I thought people were silly for worrying too much about this. Now that I turned 28, I realized how much this matters, but also I know this doesn't affect everybody, and why it doesn't.
Well, first of all, this realization didn't come up as an epiphany just for becoming 28 this last Monday, I actually started thinking about it some months ago, maybe years, idk.
There is more than one reason, but I will tell you the main one because you don't deserve to read an essay. The main reason some people hate aging is because they (we) look back and see they (we) didn't do anything in so many years. There were many things we didn't do that we could have done and we just wasted our time, there were things we wanted to do but didn't and now it's late, there were things we postponed just "waiting for the right moment" and it got late, there are things we want to do NOW that we cannot do for our age (like some jobs in my case), and if you're a woman, try not to fall in love with a younger man, it hurts the way they think of older women, and generally those relationships don't last as we would want them to do (if you're a man, don't worry).
This post got a little deppressing, right? I know, that's my life.
So, don't waste your time. Try not to be close to your 30s and have still a lot to do like me. Also, try to be informed on what you can't do when you reach certain age, or you might regret it. I would also say "don't hate your life," but if you are like me, there's nothing you can do. Sorry.
Thanks for reading, whoever is reading this.
