About This Quiz

As you make your way through life, things happen, but the thing is, they tend to happen at different times. 

Then again, there are some common patterns among us. Most of us had our first kiss around the same age, got our first job around the same age, had our first romantic partner around the same age, got married around the same age and had kids around the same age. You get the picture.

We can safely assume you're over 18 if you're spending more than $100 at the bar every Saturday. We can also safely assume that you're at least in your 20s if you've completed a graduate degree. 

If you're going on rock-climbing expeditions every summer with your preteen kids, you're probably in your 30s or 40s. If your dream vacation entails chilling by the pool in Boca Raton, Florida, we'd be hard-pressed to identify you as anything younger than 60 years old.

So think about all the amazing things you've done (and still want to do) and we'll tell you how old we think you are based on responses. Ready? Set. Quiz!
