What scares me about growing old

[kettlekorn28]

I'm scared of growing old without my husband. When the right time comes, gusto ko ako ang "mauna". I don't know what I'll do kung wala sya. Mag-3 years na kami next year at wala pa rin kaming anak. Sinong mag-aalaga sa amin? This reminds me of the movie "UP". Tumanda sila na di nabigyan ng anak. And this scares me. Pag naging mahina na kami ni hubby at di na nya kaya magwork, san kami pupulutin? If ever may relative na kukupkop sa amin, baka imaltrato kami. So as early as now, we're religiously saving up for retirement para naman afford namin makakuha ng caregiver if ever walang mag-alaga na relative. Ayan, natatakot na tuloy ako.

^ I can also relate to that movie, 4 years na kami ni hubby pero wala parin baby.

hmmm.. siguro yung mga physical aspects like getting fat na tapos wrinkles then saggy breasts and stuffs.. kahit ano man gawin natin, ma eexperience talaga natin lahat yan.. what's important is to be happy while growing old and then being wiser na and more appreciative na of life

Not having kids.
Living with regrets kasi wala akong ginawa to change  or improve myself.
Dying without a loved one.
Dying.

having a lot of regrets sa mga hindi ko nagawa when i was younger.

Having no partner beside me and worst of all.. being an imbecile.  I don't want to imagine the day that I become imbecile.

having no child...

I don't want to grow old alone.. lahat ata namention na, kaya tuloy natatakot nako tumanda.. Hay that's life..

[sugardrop]

growing old and seeing my children and say to myself that i did not do a good job raising them

Living with regrets..
Not having a baby..
Being alone with no money..

[commish]

dati, its my greatest fear to grow old alone.. kaya todo martyr ako when i was in a relationship. pero after a parade of cheats, lies and deception.. im not afraid anymore. after all lalaki naman ako eh. di katulad pag babae, parang hindi kumpleto if hindi nag child bear and birth.. sorry if may tinamaan.. its just an opinion.

Losing the ones i love

[thess]

1. grow old alone
2. grow old "nothing". No achievement, no money, no friends, useless
3. grow old lonely

[hanabishi]

being alone

[cherub.rock]

^^i agree with thess.

i dont want to grow old with no achievement, no money, no friends, no lover, no family, no nothing.

i'm scared to grow old and have not travelled.. dream ko talaga to travel far and wide.. experience new things, take on new adventures. it scares me to reach a certain old age and still dream about it. it scares me that i can never make my dreams a reality.

it scares me to grow old and feel that i have not made the most out of my youth. it scares me to grow old and still wish that i was young again. i don't want to grow discontent.

it scares me to grow old and not have loving, good children.

-not being able to live my life to the fullest when i was younger.
-having regrets about things i could have done and didn't.

[greyish]

no stories to tell and nothing to share to my children and grandchildren

mahirap magkwento ng kwento ng ibang buhay pag tanda, mas maganda buhay mo ikwento. mga kalokohan, achievements, sorrow, happiness...

[fidz]

^i agree with this one

I got no problem with me growing old per se. But me growing old means my parents growing old also. I'm afraid of loosing them which I know will come eventually if di pa mag 2nd coming si Jesus
