    Difference/adult and aging

    Hi everyone!

    Could you tell me the exact difference there is between those 2 words: "adult and aging"?
    I find it's difficult to make a real distinction between them...
    Thanks a lot!

    Hello,
    I am an adult (a grown-up) when I reach majority: I am in my twenties, my thirties, my forties..
    I am ageing means I feel I am growing old, or I feel I am growing too old to my taste.
    Did you see "Lethal Weapon" , the film where Danny Glover keeps saying:
    "I'm getting too old for this job!" whenever something goes wrong ?

    In England, you become a senior citizen.
    In cosmetics, you have a "mature" skin !!
    A cougar is an older woman dating a younger man.
    A sugar Daddy is an older man buying himself a younger girl.

    Talking about age is always tricky.
