Do you like it when people ask your age?  |

 How old are you? 28.
Father with 2 sons: Oh gosh, you are in the prime of your life. So young, just like a baby.
I hate it when people comment on my age this way. 28 is certainly not young in my opinion. I feel as old as a wrinkled potato and I hate people reminding me of it.
How old are you? 28.
18 yr old teenager: Geez, I am so sorry! Uncle, I didn't mean to probe... I just thought you might want to do soccer one of these days but... guess you are too old for it.
Oh thank you kiddie. I have been 18 yr old before so I don't need you to remind me of the stage you are currently at.
Either way my age is perceived (I have yet to come across a response that says it is the perfect age for whatever), I would rather the question be not asked in the first place. It also irks me when people like to ask me my age (whether deliberately or otherwise) during my birthday meals. Then they will start to try calculate it out l-o-u-d when I try to shrug it off. Somehow, some people just don't get it.
So, do you like it when people ask you your age? A resounding YES!? A sombre no? Do you desperately try to raise the question yourself? Do you pretend your ears are stuck? What is your thought on people asking you your age?

 lordwarwizard (10401) | 10 months ago | Well, I was really referring to the physical age of our mortal shells. I know I am as young as a toddler up in the brain but body-wise.... | |

| catdla1 (2739) | 10 months ago |  Body-wise there is a milestone involved. Up to a certain age (or appearance) every one thinks it's their right to know your age, and ask it freely and without hesitation. Then you pass this milestone, and people stop asking. They're too embarassed, or they're aftaid (suddenly) that you'll be offended. And you wonder what happened to that particular question (not that you dwell on it, but it does cross your mind now and again). At that point, there's one more milestone. It's when people think you're older than dirt and wonder why you're still alive. They, again, freely ask your age with the same awe that they wonder how old a mummy is.

93.  bestboy19 (1392) | 10 months ago | Asking my age doesn't bother me. Saying, "Oh you're younger than me" with a confused expression on their face is what bothers me, especially when they are five or more years older. | |

| 94. aminul8427 (1261) | 10 months ago |  Hi friend! I think it is not a decent matter to ask the age of a lady or gent. Sometimes, someone try to make a person happy by exaggerating and telling his/her age as less knowing well that his/her age is more. Sometimes someone tells just opposite, when the the person who is asked, feels embracing and uneasy. We should talk in sense. If someone try to make anybody happy, it may be OK but nobody should put anybody down asking indecent question. Have a nice day.

| aminul8427 (1261) | 10 months ago | You are very right. There is a rule not to ask the age of lady and salary of an employee. Both are indecent matters. It is also my question, 'why people should ask the age of gents?'. | |

| 95. aidnul (55) | 10 months ago | i really do not mind when people ask my age. I have nothing to hide. When people ask me how old I am, I answer with a "How old to you think I am". I usually get involved in the comments that they make. "OMG you don't look your age at all" and I would go, "I know!" I am 23 and people think I'm 17-18. Last year several people thought I was not old enough to vote/drive. If I always look younger than my age, it's not that bad after all...i think. | |

96.  siamus (190) | 10 months ago |  28 is young. In my opinion it's at the like around the beginning of not being simply young. I'm 30. I feel the same way about myself. Not old but not really that young anymore. You having kids you in some way may be older than me due to the stress that comes with it. I don't have any, I want some though. Yeah, that's the kind of stress that I would welcome any day!

98.  Yori88 (1318) | 10 months ago |  I don't care if people ask my age because in the first place I am still young and in my early twenties. But I hate it when they comment negatively in such a way that they are hurting intentionally. I believe that answering the question depends on the intention of the one who ask you and on the way it was asked. If just for the purpose of knowing your age because of what you have accomplished in your life and they admire you for that then it is okay. I may be young but I promise that when I get old I will still be a person young at heart just like my husband who is very young at age and at heart.
