I never have as I never refer to my age and it's not something I ever really think about. I'm just me.
Though, I probably should think about it a little more, as when I need to write down my age, I sometimes have to check it with the kids.  |

"I never really have, but I certainly wouldn’t now... especially given the amount of messages I get referring to me as a cougar  "
And only 2 years my senior  |

"Do you stop referring to yourself as young?
I'm 31 now and beginning to wonder if I can still get away with it"
I would say you can but then I would  .
I hate it when people refer to me as young lady and when people say "and a very happy birthday to Bernard, 100 years young today".

"I work with mostly people who are older than me so I always feel young, I’m 31 btw "
I used to, then slowly and imperceptibly it changed until one day I was working entirely with people younger than me . I was still younger in attitude and outlook than some of them |

Age is a number, young or old is in your mind and how you choose to live.
Some may class me old, but I say I’m in the best years of my life, so much still to experience, explore and learn, that is what keeps me young in mind & heart |

"I think age is a state of mind.
Attitude to age is definitely but actual chronological age isn't. "
This 
We get a lot of guys messaging us out of our age range who when turned down tell us age is just a number.
Yes, its a number of years you have been alive and this makes a difference, in some ways positive but in some ways negative and for us age is a limiting
I work with guys a lot older who call me young man, I train with guys a lot younger who call me old man.
Sometimes I still feel young, sometimes I feel like an old man

I am over 40 now so I refer to myself as middle aged if asked! But I believe I am fitter and generally a better person now then when I was younger.
Vintage wine reference is best!  |

Yes. My father was (and is) very fit due to his job. He was in his mix fifties and delivering some heavy stuff that needed taking up a ladder. He started to climb the ladder when a man of about 25 appeared and said "I'll do that grandad" my dad was furious. Mind you he's in his mid nineties now and gets mad if someone gives him their seat on the bus  |
