A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

why do some people say that you should hang out with people your own age ?. I'm almost 27, but the men i have liked in the last few years have been between the ages of 39 and 47, and i hang out with some women who are in their thirties and forties too. I do have a few friends my own age, but mainly hang out with older people. I also prefer to go to labour clubs, that we have here in England, where mainly older people go, and not many young people go there, rather than going out to nightclubs and bars, e.t.c. Do you think there is anything wrong with it ?. I sometimes wonder if i look out of place at the labour clubs, but i wouldnt want it to stop me from going there , and i dont want to stop hanging out with older people. I also enjoy going to the theatre, and some people my age have said they think that is " posh ", probably because they prefer to go out to nightclubs a lot.

frou frou agony auntI wonder if you´re the youngest child or an only child? I think sometimes you just feel comfortable with what you´re used to. I´m the youngest of nine cousins and have always felt comfortable spending time with people a bit older than me.

Personally…hanging out with people your own age can be good and bad. The people I hang out with that are my age, do not think like people of that age, but older and wiser.

I always hang around people that are older, because I could learn from them, and the experiences in their life. People your age don’t really have much to teach you, except to be just like them.

Besides, you are an adult, so who you choose to hang out with is your choice :)
