Tuck Everlasting
question
What age would you want to be to live forever?

18. I'm legal, can go where ever I want and am old enough to travel and drive.
Having lived through my teens, twenties, thirties, and nearly half of my forties, I have to pick mid-thirties.
Peak condition and no wrinkles or gray hair yet. hahaha

Probably around 18-22. I was at college during that period and having a great time.
I would want to be 23, agile and young enough to be immature within reason but old and mature enough to be trusted, consume alcohol and drive
18, so I could go high school or college to keep gaining and gaining knowledge.
I wouldn't really want to be immortal, it would be kind of depressing, but maybe 18-25?
28. I think I was just about perfect at 28. But I'm 31 now and the years in between are not bad either.
If I was cursed to live forever I guess I'd want to be in my mid thirties. I'm only 21, but I don't think I'd want to stay this age. My mid thirties seems like the best, that way I'd always look mature. I wouldn't look too old or too young. I'd also probably have an easier time getting to know people as I wouldn't seem too immature or too young for an older man or woman to talk to and not seem too old to relate to any young friends I happen to make. Yeah, mid thirties sounds about right.
I will want to stay 16 forever. I never want to be a grown up. I'll be old enough to drive, work, and be a kid and an adult basically a teenager. 16 forever, would be amazing.
I would want to be 16-22 or whatever but something in the pit of my stomach tells me that I just want to be a kid forever.
I'm kinda thinking I'd rather be 4 or 5 so I don't understand how horrifying it is to outlive everyone I love.
But at mid 20s right now, I gotta say this is probably my favourite. Though I might take it back a few years so I could stop getting hungover.

If I was going to pick an age...I would pick 18. I was at my happiest in that age. I was in my senior year and everything was right out of every cliche ever heard of for a teenage girl. My second happiest time in life would be when I was 20-21. I would do a lot to be able to live that forever.
Honestly given the choice, I don't think I would drink the water.. if I had to pick an age I guess I would say anywhere from 26 years old. Physically it would be nice to look that way forever but it would be hard to be hundreds of years old with all of that wisdom yet still suck in a 26 year old's body.
86.
I'll already be at that mean, sarcastic, tired-of-everyones-shit, Clint Eastwood-esque stage and it can only get better after that. I'll make fun of every teenage generation to come and MORE (:

I think 23 - 32. But, in a way everything lives forever.. I mean we change everytime, but we exist one form or another.
27 old enough to know better, young enough to still enjoy it.
I dont think that it matters what age you are beacuse menatly you are getting older by the second. I enjoy getting older and being able to grow up because then I could actually go through life as a normal person, and I am not saying that they are not normal but they live forever and that is a bit unnatural. If you see what I am saying then it may make more sense.
Early 20s but not because I drink or smoke. Just because you are an adult but still young.
I'd want to be 18, because it's the age where you're an adult, and not an adult, if you know what i'm trying to say. You're a blend of both, you have this mature side and this childish side, a rough edge and a soft spot...
18 is a good age to live forever with :D

I would be the age I am now--25. You've still got your youth but you also have some wisdom and living under your belt. People respect you.
38. Mom, my sister and I each look about half our ages, so I figure by the time I'm that age I should look like I'm around 20 (which is my current age). I do not want to look 14 forever. It was annoying to be mistaken for a 12 year old on my 20th birthday. Besides, I'll be married and have kids by then.
My high school history teacher once told our class that whatever your age is now, that is the best age to be. I agree with him.
I think that being immortal is too much pressure. I agree that it would be hard to watch everyone you love get older and leave you behind. If I 'HAD' to become immortal, I would say that myself at 29 would be a good place to be stuck.
