Are you afraid to age?

No. I've been slowly aging my whole life.
I think I can deal with whatever comes my way.
I just hope I don't have any major health problems.

Before I post my answer, I wanna make one thing absolutely clear, I am in no way, shape, or form suicidal. XD Anyway... My answer is kind of complicated. I look forward to the future, but not of aging. And well... I'm looking forward to dying... sort of. But I'm not gonna mention why cuz you would all think that I was some crazed otaku. So I'll leave it at that! Unless someone asks, of course! (which I don't think anyone will! 😀 )
life is a game... and i don't wanna win if i can't play by my rules!

No.
I've worked in a seniors home and I've got to say they don't enjoy it there. However the days that they spent while aging they say has been the most enjoyable part of their life.
From my perspective I see it as a positive way to think nearing the final stages of life. Everyone dies, not anyone lives either. The most important thing that I remember to keep myself away from fear is that enjoy life for what it is and make every moment count. Sure it's cliche to think "live everyday like it's your last" and I can't fully agree to this.

Now you've made me curious...why are you looking forward to die?^^
Btw...you are all so brave. I am a coward. I think to myself that it wouldn't be bad to die young. I've nothing to lose anyway. My grandmother suffered a lot before she died. She was unable to walk. Her legs hurt. Her memory was messed up. When I saw her like that...I just thought "God...erase her pain and just let her die". That's also how I became afraid of aging.

Hmm... after a certain point in time, way past middle age, I think I'll start to worry. As of now, though... nah. I really wanna grow right now, before it's too late. 🤣

Yes I do get afraid.
Yesterday when i went back to my Elementary School to visit . Everywhere seem to be..... small and felt like I could die of suffocation over there. When I used to think everything was so big and will never be changed, actually did. Making me feel so old, while i'm so young makes me realize that you can never help it. Luckily when my Old Principal was making her last speech made me calm down a bit. She makes the same speech every year since when i've been to that school. But hearing again made me stop and think.
Everyone will have to walk the same road. Your are pulled onto Times Road and you have No place to escape too, but you'll have to push what direction you want to head.
I hope that made sense 😕

Not really, to be honest. With age comes wisdom, and I desire wisdom. I've been told I act like a grouchy old man as it is.
Oh, and with age comes beards! 😎
Nope, it is normal.
I look forward to the future, ready to embrace it with open arms. I just hope it doesn't punch me in the face as I try.

I'm not really afraid to grow older; I'm afraid of not accomplishing what I want as I get there.

GAH! My plot doesn't bend that way!
One of my biggest fears. I don't want to forget my past, I'm not the type of person who looks forward to the future so I get scared really easily (really pessimistic in that sense), so I cling onto my past and I fear losing that as I age.

Well..yes. I dont want to live till 90 or even 60.

Here here! I'm Asian so it's hard to grow facial hair... That's why when I turn 50 I want to grow a playoff beard. (FINALLY!)
