Today, I was going into an office building. There was a boy and a man ahead of me, and the boy held the door open for me. Surprised, I said "What a nice young man," and he said. "It's ok, ma'am; my dad says to always hold the doors open for old ladies." I'm 43. FML

Well you're probably old to him, since he's just a boy.

I feel your pain, hun. I'm also 43 (and still don't like being called "Sir"...especially by people in their 30's!).

Very good point! And even so, one of my teachers in 10th grade called us all "ma'am" and "sir" and she was in her 30s. I asked her why, and she said it was out of respect and habit.

Well you are 43 dude, you aren't exactly a young lady. (No offense) It's just a little kid, to him everyone is old.

You're 43. If he is 8.6, you are 5 times his age. That's pretty old, relatively speaking. But to a 21.5 year old person, you are in mid-life. XFYL.

Well... you aren't young, right? And it was a little child, do you really care about it that much?

Sorry to break it to you OP, but you kind've are old.... It depends on what you call a "kid" If it's like a 7 year old then anyone over 40 is old. If it's a 10 or 11 year old, you need to wear more make-up
