Which Group Do You Get Along Better? People Older than You or Younger? Why?

Well, I get along with younger people. Because I am always with them when I am still in college. Oh and also, people with the same age as mine. I dont like grown ups, especially the really old people. My parents are not too old though.

I think I get along better with younger people because I can relate to them more. The older people I know are just too judgmental for me. They always think they know better than I do. And it's really hard to b around the oldies because they're too conservative. I'm traditional as well but I'm more open to changes while the oldies aren't. They view liberalism as something bad. :(

I used to relate better to the older ones simply cause they would be hte ones that would talk to me, younger ones didn't much as I was just never "in the groove" kind of thing - not popular, risk taker - things like that. But now, I try all the way around, but the younger ones don't want to listen to anything. I am not saying they should do as I say, but what I firmly believe in is in order to make good decisions, you need to have information from which to make the dtermination. Some things you can just research on line or in newspapers etc. But other things, the only research is life - what you have been through, what others have been through, things like that. I say "ASK QUESTIONS". find out what others who have been in that situation have done, wish they had done, didn't do, etc. Not that you have to do as they did, but put all that info together and use it to make your own desicion. If 7 people were in the same situation and all 7 made this one decision and it always failed...might be a good place for you to start and NOT make that decision. Things like that. On the other hand, since my husband is 10 years older than me, we qualified to ilve in an apartment complex for 55+ seniors. I thought, good, no loud music, tagging, skateboards all that stuff that kids do today and I'd rather not have to deal with. Okay, so now - give me the noise! THese older folks have dogs that rule the complex. theycomplain, the grip, they are sloppy and trashy and junky. I am far from rich, but the rent here is a bit high, so not just anyone can "qualify" to live here - another reason we thought it'd be good. No, they are self righteous, loud mouth, complaining, sloppy people! So I don't have anything to do with them. So, in my opinion, it just depends on the person you are talking to - and as to whether they want to talk to YOU or not! Either way, I talk to whom I choose and if they don't want to talk back, no prob, Bob!! I'll find someone else to talk to. ANd if they do, then it is nice to have a nice conversation and if it goes right, the nice feeling that i was able to help someone make an important decision!

Hello,Wendhie! I can get along better with my age group only because they can understand and realise my feelings and thoughts which the younger generation can't digest.Similarly the older people may not appreciate my way of thinking and they will burden me with their advises.So I feel comfortable with people of my age.thanx.

Most of the time it depends on how the other person is. I sometimes relate better to older people while other times I relate better to younger ones. It highly depends on what type of person I'm going out/having conversation with is.

the younger ones for me wendhie. i find older people very restricting for the zest i want to share with others. older people tend to be more serious (although i know a few who can provide me with a good laugh), something which i do not always want in conversations. and it's interesting to note that my husband is also younger than I am (although we have a three-year gap, he's 21, i'm 24):D

I don`t have any problem in dealing with the younger generation or those of my age group or the older generation.I get along very well with everybody. This is because my practice of Yoga has instilled in me detachment which has made me friendly towards everyone and i can come down to the level of the person with whom i am interacting without being condesceng or with a superiorrity complex.I give respect to older people and my attitude puts them at ease.

I can deal with younger people better than the older ones, I don't know why but maybe as what my parents always say, I am a little bit childish for my age, so it could be the reason why I can get along with younger ones better than older ones.

i can better relate with older groups. i want coversing with the older ones because i can get good insights and perspectives in life. of course, they have the most experiences in terms of different life ordeals that we young people will soon get along with. it is just being with them makes me feel an expert and a mature individual who talks with sense and depth. hahaha
