Meh I don't think 38 is middle-aged, but that's just my opinion. However, I do think the op is definitely middle-aged. edited to add: My mother knows people that gotten married in their 50's and 60's, so 38 isn't old at all to marry. I think the best decades to marry are in your 20's and 30's.

Idk about middle aged. 45 isn't much older than 38 really. That said, it was more tongue-in-cheek intended than not about how the internet, and reddit, often view that demographic.

Imo you're absolutely right about marriage. but just my opinion.

Well fair enough. I just think like if it was the 70's then maybe I can see 38 being middle aged, but loads of countries have live expectancies in the 80's, so I thought this for a while that I think 40's and 50's is middle aged and 20's and 30's is young adult.

Yep. Squeeze as many marriages as you can during that window of life.
