Is it normal to absolutely not want to get older

I agree with you 100%. I am sacred shitless of getting older. I do not want to age!! Seriously. I'm 27, and already I'm not liking the fact that I'm getting older. I mean I still pass for 20 most of the time, but I wanna pass for like 14 or 15!! I just really don't wanna get old! I take lots of photos of myself so when I'm 40 I will be like, "see I used to be hot!" lol. Ugh, I don't wanna get old!!! :(

One of the annoying things about getting older... for me... was looking back regularly (like at old photos) and realizing that a few years previous I had looked pretty darn good. But of course whatever my age, I could never see it because I was always so busy worrying about how I didn't look good *enough*.

This is probably going to sound stupid and unbelievable to you, but it's true: now, when I'm OVER 40, most of the time I like the way I look!!

My attitude towards myself gradually changed after years of observing others, and finally realizing that attractive people come in all ages & it's really not about youth. I hope you can figure out a way to embrace the truth of what I'm saying, and find that enjoyment much sooner than I did! =D

I feel the same way. I think 15 was the perfect age for me.

Ahh aging is so nice, I can't wait til I'm in my 40s and 50s. I think people look better with age. I want to look like I've lived my life well, and wear experience on my face with laugh lines.
Aging is not your problem. Why don't you work on getting some self esteem, that would be easier than trying to freeze time. Yuck, who would want to be 18 forever?! 18 sucks.
Plus, with age, you have money and freedom to do anything and go anywhere.

i have the same problem and at the same time I can't feel that i'm getting older. Age seems to all just be in the mind despite the physical effects, All my friends are way younger than me. Can't relate to people my own age. Be mature enough to take care of your life and your loved ones but you dont have to "act your age"- that's just a prejudice. Be yourself and find a golden mean between maturity and eternal youthfullness.

Yeah your 18, you don't realise how great ageing can be.. I get happier every day. you find more things to complain and be angry about, and looking back the more I realise what a t*** I was. but the diaper stage is not one I look forward to.

I'm about to turn 31 and I love it! There is nothing like being mature and secure enough to enjoy life...and still be young enough to have fun! My favorite part is that thus far I get more attractive as I get older. I know that will some day stop but I love the direction it's heading lol!

I want to hit 21 and then just stop physically ageing but continue living for many years
