I'm getting old!!
Well I just realized how old I am getting. I'm turning 28 in 2 months and that's like almost turning 30!! I can't believe how time has snuck up on me. I remember when I was 18 thinking that someone who was 25 was anceint, and now here I am turning 28. It's quite a milestone because it means I've been out of highschool for ten years, and that the reunion will probably be this summer. I havent acomplished even half of the things I wanted to have done. When I was 18 I thought I'd be married and have kids by this age. Well I'm still single and childless. I also don't have a nice career, I work at a minimum wage job.
Does anyone have any advice to make me feel better about my age? People are joking that I'm turning into an old maid.

It's completly normal to think about that some time in your mid to late 20's. Mine happened when I was 25, I guess it was the 1/4 centry thing that got to me LOL. Anyway, it will pass and you'll realize how young you really are. I'm 41 and recently went on a Diving trip with a group of guys whos AVERAGE AGE was 65, and they were wild! My point is, don't think about your age in years. Stay active and fit, focus on trying new hobbies and activities, keep learning, and most of all, dont look back at what you dont have. Look forward to what you want and go for it!

ok its never too late 2 start fresh. if you have a carreer in mind, go for it. how about school, or if you dont want to stop working, there are alot of home learning courses , or evening courses. and for the wife and child thing. dont worry, the right person will come along in time. you have to be patient and enjoy life, because your'e only half way through your life. still got maore than half left actually.

Girl im right there with you! I am 27 about to turn 28 and ive often felt the same way. I work for my fathers business and live paycheck to paycheck. I kept feeling down thinking, oh my gosh im almost 30. But then I got to thinking how much better it is to be at this age then to be a kid again. My mother is a teacher and when i hear all the horror stories about kids these days and even teenagers, it makes me feel glad to be an adult. I also surrounded myself with good friends and family and got myself into fun activies with people my age. I take classes at my gym and even went back to school for a few fun noncredit courses. I long for children and family all the time as well. But I also feel good knowing that at 28, im okay and doing well. I think to myself, i could be divorced or ill, but im doing alright! go out and have a good time! keep telling yourself how fabulous you are, i know that sounds corny but it worked for me. I also started a blog through blogger. its a fun and easy way to vent about things and a great way to keep in touch with people and to meet people. try myspace to. 28 isnt old, its just older than 25 when we thought that was so old.:) but were young girls and we still have our whole lives ahead of us! I hope that helps a little. good luck, and remember , your fabulously 28 :)
