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

You start correcting people when they say “your” instead of “you’re” :-)
My what?
TURN UP YOUR HEARING AIDS OLD TIMER
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.
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.
Balls hang a little lower.

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!
Back pain
Deadlifts fixed my back pain completely. Ymmv.
thanks, i’m trying with swimming now, hopefully it’ll help
Letting autoincorrect slip in homonyms
Worrying that every unexpected pain in your body will be cancer.
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!
That you are alive is the surest sign.
*your
Sorted that for you
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.
