A phrase often thrown at me when I'm scootering on supermarket trollies for instance.....or having fights with my son with the perfume samplers.....or watching Spongebob....

I'm 46 but act about 16....

What about anyone else?.....do you act your age?

Every so often my wife tells me to grow up, or act my age...
... my usual response is "Why should I?" or "Where's the fun in that?"

I fully intend to be an adolescent hooligan when my car's finished...

The other night, we were getting the boys ready for bed, and the wife mentioned something about her three boys - me behaving the youngest.

Joseph is 1

I am 37 1/5

Nah Nah Nah NahNah

Simon

Alan.

I get that exactly.

My youngest is 15, and im always having a laff with him. But my wife accuses me of trying to be a fifteen year old. "you shouldnt talk to him like that / about stuff like that etc".

If trying to act like a kid doesnt work, then its the mid life crisis crap.

im 45 next year - i have left it a bit late to go off the rails. But then the car should be ready next year cool:

I'm 42 and my wife is always giving me the STARE for looking (no ogling in a real pervy way)at fit totty half my age.

I think its normal though

Perfectly normal Bob....

Thank God I am not alone.................The wife always says she has 3 kids.- 13 months,3 and 40. Then again she swears she is the only sane one in the family.

It's not my wife who tells me to act my age(40), it's my teenage daughters - they find it embarrassing when Dad might be visible! Object like mad when I hop on the shopping trolley to use gravity to get down the car park - in my view that is what wheels were invented for.

Age is just a number - keep young and have fun

I like this thread!
I no longer feel old any more (43).
Last time I was in the supermarket I had 2 of the kids in the shopping trolley, the oldest (7) under it and me standing on the back. Great fun!
The wife stayed in a seperate isle!
