When I was younger, I wanted to be older. Now I am older, I am not quite so sure.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
For years I wanted to be older, and now I am.
My career started young and I was really ambitious, and then I had success and I hung out with people who were much older. I think I might have been temporally misplaced, so I thought I was 40. It was a premature midlife crisis.
I spent my whole childhood wishing I were older and now I'm spending my adulthood wishing I were younger.
I was a late child from my parents, so I grew up surrounded by people a lot older than me. I think even when I was 21, I felt like I was a 70-year-old man.
I always felt older than my years, maybe because I was married to someone older.
I don't feel any older now than when I was 70.
I always knew that good stuff would come along when I was older. So when I was 18, I longed to be 30; when I was 30, I longed to be 50. I've always looked forward to my next birthday.
Even when I was young I wanted to be an actress.
I've always wanted to be older, as I think it's all right to be a little bit odd when you're out of your 20s.
Even when I was a child, I always wanted to be older. I realised just in time that it's a mistake and to enjoy my youth while I had it.
