I Think Age Is Only A Number

[big][center]Omg no!!! [/center][/big]

Age matters. Did any of you watch the Bachelor tonight? Bekah finally told us how old she is. 22. Yup, 22 years old.

And Arie (remember him?) is 36. Yup, 14 years older than her.

So when she revealed her age, he realized how silly it was and sent her home, right? Nope!!! He talked about how he sees the possibility of a real future with her!

What do you think? Is age just a number? Or does it matter?

at your age yes age matters more, at least it did to me when I was that age because So many things happen around your age, driving, graduating, voting, drinking, becoming legally an adult.

when you get to even my age you have experienced all that, everyone has, and things aren't so tied to your age, making age a less important factor

@RoxClymer Totally agree with all that. But she's 22 so she's pretty close to my age.

@IAmJess 22, so on the high end of the age group and probably already experience most or all of the items listed so some of those things may be "old hat" to her, been there done that, ready to move on

an example- because of my medical issues, I was making life sustaining/altering decisions by the time I was 16, by the time I was 22 I had moved 5,000 miles away from Home, by 25 I was in a career a by 30 was back making life altering decisions because a dr almost killed me

you can do a lot of living in a relatively short time
