What are some signs your getting older?

I have learned the difference between "your" and "you're".
- For me, it's correcting people that.
- I guess I’m still growing as a person

You start correcting people when they say "your" instead of "you're" :-)
- Quite the opposite.
  The older you get the less clever it feels to point out the common mistakes of others
  
  It's replaced with a desire to help people be better.
  
  I agree actually, I was only kidding because of the subject of the post.
  
  Agreed. Matter of fact, I usually direct the offending party to one of two, if not both, sites.

  Always a good time.

I don't heal as fast anymore. Cuts and scrapes turn into scars easier.

Vision. It gets hard to read in low light, driving at night is tough, you can't quite figure out how close or far to hold a book or phone.
Alcohol. You just don't shake it off like you did when you were younger. Now you really think about whether that next drink will be worth the shitty sleep.
Money. You talk about property taxes and 401k contributions more often than you ever thought you would.
Patience. You're more patient with kids and your parents, and way less patient with everything else.
- Memory and visual attention when you get closer to 60. You can't remember all 10 digits of a new phone number with an unfamiliar area code; often one of the 4 last numbers will end up transposed with a neighbor. Visual attention: looking on your garage shelves or cupboards for an item and not seeing it even though it's in plain sight.
  
  0118 999 881 999 119 725 3
  and my own phone number, nothing else.
  
  Is it not normal? This describes me perfectly and I'm not even 30 yet. (Well in a few months I won't be able to say that anymore, but still)

definately physical pain on stuff you used to do on the regular. Had a job were I would get impatient waiting for a delivery and would jump off the dock to go check if I could see the truck. A little after I got into my thirties I jumped off one day and just stopped and stood still in a crouched position for a bit. I never "felt" the landing like I did that day before. It was the sart of what would be a long line of things I would cease to do.
- When you fall down nobody laughs. Only concern.
  
  Next up: you don't fall down, you "have a fall".

You mix up your and you're.
- My tolerance for incorrect use of your / you're gets lower.
  
  It's funny, because my tolerance of people correcting other people's grammar or spelling gets lower.

  As does mine. But mixing it up gets higher 😉

My what?
- TURN UP YOUR HEARING AIDS OLD TIMER
- Your getting older. They are asking the abstract noun representing your aging what some signs are. I don't think your getting older is going to be able to answer, though, and I doubt it has much knowledge of signs.

I find it takes much, much longer to heal from injury. That's the main downside I've experienced. When I say longer - when about 8 yo I broke my arm, it took 5-6 weeks to heal, maybe 10 to really heal, stop swelling ever and feel exactly like the other. When about 45 I broke my finger and it took 2 years to fully heal and feel like the rest of them.
But it also takes longer to get mad, I'm less irritable, more perspective I guess. Easier to feel happy/satisfied, too, it's closer to the surface now.

You can't stand grindy videogames. You see young adults as children, and their behavior becomes irritating.

Balls hang a little lower.

The music I grew up with is “classic” and the “hits of yesterday” that I don’t recognise on the radio is “young people’s music”.

All pro athletes are younger than me. Except maybe a hockey player or two.
- Completely walking away from sports you followed with passion your whole life because you just aren't interested in learning the next crop of pros. Also, you know the way money and politics and other things force things in sport and it takes the fun out of it...same can be said for music.

Asking what the signs of getting older are?? 🙂

Finding grey hair in your beard. The first time I started to feel older was once I found a couple grey hair in my beard. None in my hair, just beard
- Nah you're not really old until you find grey hair in your pubes
  
  Haha, thanks!

Pain. Just pain and exhaustion doing everyday things. Recovery time from the same pain taking longer and longer as time goes on.
I'm not even 30 yet, and it really puts a damper on things.
- You might want to get that checked out. You shouldn't be feeling pain to that level in your 20s. I'm 40+ and do not have pain and exhaustion from everyday things. I work outside daily on my farm as well. So you really shouldn't be feeling this at 20.
  
  About 50% of it is probably obesity, the rest... well, chronic pain is very common in my family.
- Is that a threat?
  😂

Letting autoincorrect slip in homonyms

Back pain
- Deadlifts fixed my back pain completely. Ymmv.
  
  thanks, i'm trying with swimming now, hopefully it'll help

For me it clicked when pretty girls started tallking and being nice to me
- It's probably because you stopped caring so much and acting awkwardly around them
  
  It is! Hence the realization that I got older. Sorry, re-reading my comment above I wasn't clear
- "You've exited the dating pool but aren't in old adult territory yet", someone I've heard describe it once.

That you are alive is the surest sign.
- *your
  Sorted that for you

The year changes

Less birthday parties for you, more for younger folks.

Worrying that every unexpected pain in your body will be cancer.
- I've been like that since 15, that's just being a hypochondriac.

Your perception and outlook on time changes a lot.
Everything seems to go by faster. Waiting for something doesn't seem that bad when it's in terms of days instead of hours, weeks instead of days, months instead of weeks, years instead of months.
When making long term plans, "how long you think you'll live" becomes more and more of a factor.

Your first gray pube.
- What age?
  
  For me sometime soon after 40.

My knees. I am past 30, and my knees somehow don't want to bend anymore.
On the other hand the older I get, the smarter I get about life. Do some physical activity on a regular basis, keep some long term goals in mind, don't let your emotional state depend on external factors.
Find balance in your life and know your limits and you will be all right.

School dreams are very rare now, and when I have them the "cast" is all people from various adult jobs. I never knew my actual school mates as adults, so I guess my brain just can't fill it in. If I was actually transported back to high school and saw them again it would probably feel like being surrounded by babies, so makes sense that "central casting" sends in adult stand-ins.
I'm always an adult too. What's weird is I remember being a child. I remember my body being clumsy and awkward, I remember being confused by adult concepts, I remember being small. It never comes out in childhood dreams, I'm always my present age.

When it gets "weird" wanting to do the young people stuff.

Terrible hangovers
- and depression after... more deep

You get free dlc every year, that you can't uninstall, for example: Cannot move neck after sleeping in a slightly wrong position. Random foot pain. Extra hangover. Blurry vision in the distance.

People at a store ask if I want the senior discount...hurumph rude! LOL
Doing an oil change, rotor and brake pad change in same day, means my back and legs are sore for a few days after
- I didn't get a harumph from that guy!

Making interjections when standing up, from a chair, from bed, getting out from your car seat, etc …
- Preposterous!

When I get up after sitting on the ground for a while my knees are stiff.
Get off my lawn.

Get off my lawn

Presbyopia

The amount of candles on you're birthday cake are so numerous that the fire department comes out.

Pimples just becoming permanent weird little bumps

How little of a fuck you give for modern times and just live in the past.

People will tell you. Worst I've had is a pulled back muscle from sneezing while leaning forward in my chair.

You measure time on the scale of emergency to emergency.

My 60th birthday.

You look at your weekly pill container to know what day of the week it is.

It’s daytime. Or nighttime. Or evening or morning. Or you don’t know what time of day it is but you’re conscious. Any of these situations indicates aging is happening.

One of the biggest and most terrible things that ever happened to my province, which CONSUMED everything for a long time back when I was a teenager and people still talk about very passionately to this day, well meeting someone who has NO idea what this is makes me feel old.

I’ve noticed my passions aren’t as sudden, but they burn deeper and longer.

When the authorities ask why you haven't taken the carrousel rite yet.
