Being 29 in a singles ward makes you feel pretty old, with all the 19 year olds graduating from high school checking out the singles ward.... The new ward is not helping much. Turns out the majority of the time when I meet someone they turn out to be the youngest sister or brother of someone I went to high school with. (now that the wards are organized purely geographically)
Truth be told, my naive, silly self honestly thought that switching the ward boundaries would yield more of the "older population" (25-30) because I wouldn't be going to a "student ward"anymore. silly silly silly....
If being 29 in a Utah singles ward doesn't make you feel old enough as it is.....
Imagine how old I felt when a familiar face walked into sacrament meeting... the face of a boy I used to babysit when I was in Jr high school. I used to walk to their house everyday after school and watch him and his older sister. He used to wrap himself around my leg so I had to drag him around to get anywhere and I vaguely remember bossing him around to do things like do his homework, feed the dogs etc....
apparently he had just gotten off his mission. I have to admit that made me feel older than the new high school grads.
He actually asked a mutual acquaintance about me and said I was cute. It doesn't really make me feel any younger but maybe just a tiny bit less undesirable.
