Its relative. A guy who is 35 years old is old if he's a quarterback but he's the young exec in the office. 35 is old for a woman who has never been married but young if she's a grandmother. 40 is waaay too young to consider retirement but its really old if you want to learn to play the cello professionally. 30 years old is really old for a woman who enrolls in a community college but its really young for a woman to become a homicide investigator with the police dept.
I would usually agree that mid 80's is old, but my grandmother has come to live with me and she is 86. Let me tell you, she is a spry little thing and has more energy than most 25 year olds. It is hysterical.
When I was younger I thought 30+ was old but at 21 I am feeling kinda ancient.
21?? You better get Life Alert you old geezer. lol!!!
I think looking old and acting old are two different things. My MIL was so full of energy in her 60s+ that she had more drive than kids in their 20's. She looked older but definitely didn't ACT it!
