When I started using dating apps I found 24 year olds too old. I still have that impression memorized but it's wild.

I've always had my lower limit for how young I'd date as "she has to be older than my brother". But my brother is only 3 years younger than me so that's becoming less and less relevant as he's pushing into his mid 20s now haha

Used to be a rule of thumb that the lower limit for dating was half your age + 7. Dunno if that's still a thing.

Welp, I don't know when from the memory is, but I do vividly remember thinking about how damn old those 14/15 year old 9th graders are. Could be 1st grade.

Basically as if the life ended at 20, and they were soon to retire.

I remember fearing high school kids. I wasn't even sure how old they were, just that high school was a jungle and any kid who went to high school was dangerous.

Oh yeah. There were these 2 older neighbours 2 grades above me in primary school who once protected me from bullying in school. They were practically adults in my head, but actually I was 6-7 and they were 8-9.
