My little is 5, and I worried about how my age would affect her, but when I turned 41 I excitedly got to say I was 4+1 … I’ll never be too old to be little… and besides my daddy will always be my daddy bc I’m his bestest cupcake

That’s genius! I wish I had thought of that when I was 41! 4+2=6 is just a smidgen off from my little age… maybe I should start lying about my real age so I can use that?

Hello everyone!

 

Honestly, I’m still really new at this, it has only been a couple months since I discovered the ddlg lifestyle.

It took a little while to accept but I’m happy with it now.

This feels like the place I’m meant to be

 

I’m 33 and identify as more of a middle. My age range seems to be between 9-13 depending on what is going on.

 

It would be great to meet some other middles, especially ones over 25.

I can be really shy, but feel free to send me a message

[Guest Sunshine_ButterflyFairy]

I think this would fit into my category. I do feel a lot younger than I am inside but I enjoy a lot more activities in the middle age range. Arts and Crafts, Beading, Museums, Learning new things. I'm still new to this completely but I am adapting well to everything and would love to meet others who indentify as Middles. I'm deeply shy though. It just takes time for me to open up and tell them things about myself.

Hi all, I just joined today and I'm glad there seems to be some other older littles around. I'm 33 myself, I've been with my Daddy for about 2 years but we're still new to this and exploring the DDlg dynamic for the first time together. I'm excited to get some insight and have a space to talk about this kind of stuff! 

[Feeria]

Deep breath, here goes...  I am a 44 yr old submissive with middle tendencies??? I am not sure.  I just know that I find the aspect of a care giver that wants to take care of me, help me be the best me, who is proud to call me theirs is verrrrrrry attractive to me.  So I joined to see if all those romance novels that drew me in with this wonderfull world of Daddies and Doms and how they love their littles, middles, pups, kittens, and subs is real or just another story.

 

I am shy and the wallflower/people watcher that justs peeks out at the world.  However with time and getting to know people I am that weird friend who is loyal, gets indignant on your behalf, and likes to cuddle next to you.  I also have a very small brain to mouth filter that is faulty...so I say off the wall things and I cuss, I am a mom to a 20 yr old boy as well....I am rambling but this is me. 

 

Soooo.....Hello all!

Hiya

It's nice to meet you. I am 43, come May. I am a Little. I've known for years. I was diagnosed with age regression. But that's a lable they put on me.

I have adult children and grand bees. My Daddy is not a Dom. He is however my protector and loves me very much.

Like anything out in the world. Some of it is very dramatized in romance novels. It's what you make of your life.

I'm still new to this as well. I've hidden for as long as I can remember. But here I have found an overwhelming amount of love and positivity.

Good luck Feeria

[Bumbl3B33]

I am also a 42 yr old Little. I find it hard to be able to find ppl who are at a similar  point in life. I have grown children, youngest being 20 yrs old. I have grand bees now. 

The youths don't realize for, some like myself, itself a lifestyle. I have a simple, beautiful, maybe gullible, outlook of life. Always have. 

Sometimes I need advice they would never have experienced in their young lives. 

Just a buzzzz 8-)

[Feeria]

I have a son that is 20 and have always spoken to him as me, whether that is me feeling younger, silly and carefree or as the responsible single adult mom. With accepting who I am as I discover my self I know that who I am should not come as a suprise to him and he will understand I am who I always have been. Doesn't make me less nervous of afraid to tell him one day...its a big truth.

[Bumbl3B33]

Feeria your right it is a big truth. I haven't myself worked up the courage to tell my children or to discuss the topic. 

Now that's not to say they're dumb. They have asked me questions kinda suggesting they know more than they want to talk about.

I'm 49, married but he's not a daddy. I am a little and middle. Also the shy type. It's nice to meet you.

I have my littlespace and middlespace that helps a lot with life stress. It's been really helpful. I'm finding as I embrace this part of me more that I am becoming more comfortable in my own skin.

It's nice to see more people over 40 here. Welcome

Yeah!  More older Littles!  So Happy

[Red Squirrel]

Yay for more older littles! I have felt "little" since I wasn't even a teenager. I didn't know what it was or why so was very private about it for what turned into decades. Never shared with anyone. Now I know what it is called I feel like I...lost out, I guess, on joining events and stuff in my 20's. Most discord groups are full of people younger than me and it kinda bums me out for some reason. I feel like I dont fit in. I've always been so shy and am almost kicking myself for not being brave enough earlier to share it and enjoy the community. I turn 40 this year, though I do not look my age, and that just makes it even worse for some reason.Im literally dreading my birthday and Im not even sure why.I guess it's been a pattern my whole life, too shy to do or try things and then regretting it later! Anyway thanks for reading my babbling brain dump/vent

Haiii Red Squirrel,

​I'll be so excited for you, then. Something happening in our 40s. Second childhood!  Our brains rewire. Even in Littles! I love being 42. And new grand babies on the way. It's exciting. 

Much love and hugs 

[FledglingWren]

I’m turning 40 too.

This month.

I absolutely feel all the things you said, I could have written every word myself xx

Thank you both so much for your kind responses

I resonate with a lot you are speaking of. I was a late bloomer for everything in life lol. And that's okay. I love being older now. I have spoiled selfishness I have grown to be okay with. I was a mom, wife, blah blah lol. Now I can love and nurture me and most of all understand I need and love that from Daddy. My offspring is probably aware but I feel no need to go into that with them. They are just aware when they bring stuff to me about their lives I seem very well informed. I blame google hahah. We are very close but not everything is their business. That is how I look at it. Plus your kids know you. Probably more than you know yourself. But again, I am a woman and they are my kids not my bestie. Not all aspects are for their perusal. Now in terms of a partner? I have had to hide my little/middle and it is hell. I would never date someone not on board or understanding of it. That is soul-killing for me.

Thank you both so much for your kind responses Im trying hard to wrap my head around why leaving my 30's behind is giving me such anxiety. Do I just have severe FOMO, considering I realize now I'm perpetually "late to the game" for things like this? I know I should be looking more at what doors will open for me in my 40's but I am too preoccupied with the one shutting on my 30's because I don't feel ready to leave them yet. I'm not done being young! Clearly, age is just a number, but maybe it's the societal expectation to kind of have your together by then and not feel a need to regress as a coping mechanism/comfort/relaxation. Its an acceptable "phase" for people in their 20's but by 30's it starts to raise eyebrows and who knows what with those in their 40's. Probably just see me as "damaged" so I have to totally hide, almost in a shameful way, a side thats been a part of who I am as long as I can remember. Perhaps I should just care less what other people think. In other areas I do have it together. I'm responsible financially and we even paid off our home already last year. Reliable, mostly quite sensible. Maybe it's because I entered my 30's with no children and will leave them with 4 lol so I've not had much time to myself at all these past 10 years. Don't get me wrong, I adore my children, they're my heart walking around outside my body.I just see now I didn't balance motherhood with making literally any time for myself.Thats probably a huge part of why I am not being ready to leave my 30's behind; I have been nothing more than a mother and a wife/homemaker with a husband who travels a lot for work. Add the pandemic in there for an additional splash of isolation and I think I found a large piece of the puzzle surrounding my dreading turning 40

Thank you all for being so sweet in your responses and reading my novels. I seriously truly appreciate it xoxo

First and for most, your a mom!  Who doesn't go crazy during adolescence!  

But I do remember my 4. I hid my Little BumbleBee while raising them!  So know I am good.through men-O-pause!  Oh Lord, I just can't hid her anymore. So my adult kiddos think I've gone nuts !   Hang in there!  You know you best!  

[Bumbl3B33]
