When do we start feeling old? Can others make you feel old n unattractive even when you're not?

My girlfriend is about 25 yrs old. N she said that she looks matured n old n she always feel unattractive. How can I advise her to look beautiful?

...... I used to think 40 was old....now I'm 50 and I still concur that the downslide started ...if only mildly at 40...then hastened at 45....a few extra ppounds......some gray hairs....the stiff joints in the mornings....harder to bend over and tie the tennis shoes......the handsome looks starting to fade........thankfully the hair is full and unscathed.....but sleep apnea set in...I now need reading glasses.....I get winded easily......the feet get cold from circulation starting to decline.....I now need blood pressure medicine.....as of two months ago...I need metformin for diabetes II.......cholestorol mecicine.......eating habits are being reformed along with a daily regimen of walking.......the slight bags under the eyes......it is part of life and I used to wonder how people could let theirself get fat...I gained 80 extra pounds over 25 years......that's about three pounds a year.......or a pound every four months.....or 4 oz a month....or an ounce a week.....or 4 grams a day........my point?......it can slip up on ANYBODY......I even went ot the gym religiously for about three years.......I hate what's happening to me...but guess what......even movie stars and millionaires can't stop father time...although plastic surgery and a fitnees trainer along with a dietitician would SURE help.......to hear your girlfriend say that she feels old and matured at 25 makes those of us who are REALLY through this, laugh......I empathize with how she feels but she is in the prime of her life .....for another 15 years.......enjoy it...........YES....other people CAN make us feel unattractive.....sadly.......the tongue is the most powerful weapon on earth.......sometimes , it only takes a glance......reassure your friend...sounds like she is looking for some positive feedback......all of us like to hear a compliment now and again........

People feel old first around graduation from college (or if no college, then about the second week after graduation from high school...)

There are always people who feel so bad about themselves that they strike out to hurt others.

As for helping your girlfriend, the issue is her internal view of herself. That is something only she can do . All you can do to help is tell her regularly how much you care for her and how much you like how she looks.

IM 42 hun and i can tell you we as women HAVE those moments...she really needs to maybe get a spa treatment..
she sounds DEPRESSED!!!
I use all sorts of products and it wont hurt her to start NOW...
stay out of the sun ..tanning caused WRINKLES!!

If it were me see if you can gather some money for you both to head to the spa!!
OR a makeover place..and SURPRISE HER!!

I think people are excited about their birthdays until they turn about 26...approaching 30 and fast...
Just tell your girlfriend no matter what, you think she is gorgeous....everyday tell her..and she will start to beleive it.
