I'm a Closet Atheist

[Clueless Morgan]

Hi, my name is Cecelia and I'm a closet atheist.  I'm 30 years old, but will be 31 in October.  I'm getting old =/

31 isn't old. I'll be 31 in December and I'm not old.

anyhoo, welcome

I'll be 31 in September, but I am old. How does that work?

I'll be 41 in September.

I'm wondering where my 30's went

Maybe it's cause I feel like I'm 22. And when I was 22, I felt like I was 16.

I guess to me 31 year-olds are "grown ups" and I don't feel like a grown up so therefore I'm... not... 31? Which is true, because I'm still 30.

Whoa... I'm 30...

Welcome from another former Catholic, also pushing 31.

Lol yeah it blows.

I know what you mean though, I get a few signs here and there that remind me I'm old, but there's always that need to be reminded, because I still don't feel like a grown up. Having a 10yo helps to remind me.

But I still get carded and I get "You don't look old enough to have a 10 year old!?" So thats cool.

Maybe you are not drinking enough.  Alcohol is a preservative.  I have been drinking for many years, and people who meet me pretty much all guess I am more than 10 years younger than I am.  They seem genuinely surprised if I tell them how old I am.  At 30, I looked almost like I was still a child.  Even then, I could pass for 10 years younger than I was.

Also, I get exercise and try to eat reasonably healthily.  Just a couple of days ago, I went on a hike of about 10 miles, which involved very noticeable hills, as well as scrambling over rocks that required the use of hands to get over them, and climbing down a cliff face on a narrow ledge.

But I still get carded

Yeah, me, too, but that's cause I live in Oregon and they card anyone who looks younger than, like 45...

Had no idea there were so many people this close to me in age, though... 'Sup my generational brothahs and sistahs?!?!

Welcome!

Sorry you've got to deal with all that. As a person living in the Bible Belt I wholly understand.

Like Min said, your choice, but motherfuckers like that can be a destructive influence. I've gotten rid of more than a few who aren't willing to just back off and leave me be about their imaginary pals. It's easier, and far more liberating, than you'd think.

Welcome Cecelia! I hope you enjoy your time here.
