I most definitely do. The 2010s are over. We are almost in the 2020s, I?ll be graduating highschool in in 2021
The original DS is like 15 years old. I?m turning 18 soon, a lot computer games from our childhood are gone, like club penguin etc. the cha cha slide is almost 20. Just where has the time gone?
 
I don't just feel old, I am old. LOL

Computers weren't even a regular household thing when I was a child. :p
 
Nope, I’ll never feel old for as long as I live. The times may change, but so do I. Time is relative anyway. :p
 
Despite my username I don’t feel old. I’m still pretty dependent on my family and don’t have that much responsibility to feel old tbh. I do work a job related to my major, am almost done with university and I’m independent in a lot of aspects of life but I still feel like I wouldn’t feel old until I have a house, kids, travel and start working more than just part time. It’s true that sometimes I feel old because I no longer enjoy things I did as a kid (like kdramas that are super dramatic and angsty) but idk it seems how it should be, it’s normal that we grow out of some things. Idk I feel like I haven’t accomplished enough yet and have so much I want to do still. I’m not even sure if I’ll feel old after I do all those things I listed either
 
Low key feel like i should feel older since i thought my current age is the point people became "adults" when i was a kid but i don't really feel like one because I'm still kinda dependent on my family and I'm still in uni so my responsibilities are still kinda few relative to my peers? Especially my peers who've graduated already and are getting jobs and stuff. Was really surprised that someone my older brother's age already got married and has a kid now because she's only two years older than me and i still feel like idk a slightly older teen or something? So it's more of a "oh right time is a thing" feeling than a "damn I'm old" feeling?

But also, even though I'm twenty something years old which is the longest amount of time i personally have experienced, I still think I'm pretty young because I'd have to go through my life four times over to be the age my grandmother is! So yeah! I'm not old and i don't feel old. There's so much time ahead of me!! So many things i could accomplish!! The only thing the passage of time changed is that I'm old enough to get a driver's license or get married without having to ask my parents :)))))
 
Old yeah, but definitely not adult or mature. I don't think anyone ever feels that way though, like people are either serious or silly by nature in that aspect. I like cute things, I like to play Nintendo games, but also like my most formative years are now like 13 years ago and it's so insane to me. The change from '09 to '10 had no effect on me, but 2020 just seems so foreign and disconnected to me. I think social media really affected our sense of time, even my parents complain about how everything moves differently now.
 
I'm 17 but i feel like 50 cos my back always hurts and my face is wrinkly lololol
 
Well physically speaking I sometimes feel old because I can't work full days anymore after having slept only two hours.. My body pretty much just says "no" to that these days, I need my sleep :')

But as for the rest, I don't feel old at all. In fact I don't think anyone ever really feels their age, at least that's what I gather from talking to family & friends who are older than me :)
 
Why should I feel old while I'm still young! It's just amazing that some things like Pok?mon have existed for over 20 years already but that's how it works!
 
I feel old lmao, the 3ds and pokemon black and white are like 8 years old, adobe flash is dying and deviantart and tumblr are just ghost towns of they used to be. All the 2010s shows are just gone and we're in a internet where everyone is fighting each other and there's no mods (you guys are cool dont worry)
