Group therapy here: I hate that I have to workout and watch intake to maintain or reduce weight, all my youth I was underweight. Genetics are a bitch, I'm looking --and sounding-- like my dad more and more. On the flip side, I see the bigger picture, and now that I'm married, don't have to worry about girls, dating, and other growing up issues. It's a fun ride, and I'm enjoying it. - Jeremiah Owyang

I like that now when I speak people listen, when I was younger that drove me insane. I hate that my body feels second hand already. (28) - Toby Graham

Love using wisdom I didn't have earlier on when I was younger. I hate trying to get back into shape... it seems to take longer each time I attempt it. [But I'm NOT giving up. :)] - Kevin C. Tofel

I don't worry so much. I realized at some point "hey, I'm pretty good at what I do" and now I trust my gut. Work sometimes made me a nervous wreck when I was younger (mostly I just cared too much, often about the wrong things). - Jason Wehmhoener

Hate: Weight gain issues like Jeremiah mentioned; feel tired/run-down faster now; memory loss (which is secondary to having a hugely stressful job!!); not as much of a "looker" now...ignored more in favor of younger women (ouch); rejected more. Love: Respect, knowledge/wisdom factor is awesome!; street smarts, business saavy "capitol", better communication, people / political saavy; historical context is now present (better decisions/info); deeper tech domain knowledge / skill set ... big picture is big! - Susan Beebe

The first time someone called me "Sir" I stepped out of the way because I thought they were talking to someone behind me. Then I realized. *sigh*. On the upside, I don't worry about *anything* anymore. - Sprague D

LOVE: the confidence that really understanding yourself brings Don't-Love-so-much - the minor aches and ridiculously longer recovery times - Marco(aureliusmaximus)

Love: the freedom to do what i want to do, horizontal license, less stress. Hate: the fact that i realize i'm getting older. - Kyle A Koch

Love: Freedom, more responsibilities, mental growth, and simply growing up through the hardships of life. Hate: Not being able to play in the park anymore cause I'm too big :( - Bartek Ciszkowski

I don't get carded anymore. - imabonehead

@Kyle, horizontal license = no one to tell you to get out of bed? - Toby Graham

I Love that every day i grow more knowledgeable than I grow old. I hate that things to worry about increase faster than anything else (except maybe credit). - Parth Awasthi

bartek - bu that's what Dave and Buster's, GameWorks, etc. are for - Jeff Woelker from twhirl

Hate: noisy knees, gray underarm hair (just one? Where's The Fish?!?) LOVE: being taken more seriously at work, having the confidence that comes from surviving all the weird things I've experienced in my life. - ha3rvey (big appetite)

I love that people respect me more and more as I get older. I hate that those younger than me respect me lesser and lesser. - Shey, Jamaican of FF

Love: dancing at parties (at last!) and not care what others might be thinking. Hate: diabetes. - Bob Kingsley

I just hate money as it's evil! - Joe Dawson

Riffing on Sprague D, being addressed as "Sir" - The frequency increases with age. I expect to expire once it reaches 100% - Kevin Johnson from twhirl

I hate the growing awareness that there really isn't enough time. - shelisrael1

being called Mr or Sir, a growing awareness that its time to do only the right thing - Patphelan

Love: Knowledge. Hate: Responsibility. - Mohamed J

I love that I can give self-doubt the finger. (finally) Why couldn't I have this confidence and wisdom at 18? ;) I hate the fact that I'm 29 and have some lower-back issues. - Anna Haro

Hate: feeling compelled to respond to lists like this. Love: having kids. - Clay Newton

Love the comfort and bonding of a long marriage, watching our kids grow, and the fact that every day is one day closer to heaven. Hate the aches and pains. - Robert

Love: being able to dance on the sofa with my shoes on while holding a bowl of ice cream. Hate: being the one that has to clean up the ice cream when i drop it on the sofa. - carlotta fancypants

Echo what Robert said... - Mrsth

i love that younger people will listen to me now. I hate that younger people won't listen to me now. - chartreuse

love: experience, lessons; hate: physical and mental deterioration, people around me getting older. - ~C4Chaos

Love: learning to accept myself for who I am Hate: Taking 30 years to get there - Sally: reading a book

Hate that I'm usually the oldest guy in the room, and forgetting that I am :) - Bryan Thatcher

I love that I had my kids very young (and they are grown!) and that I look young but have all these years of wisdom. I hate that I don't know about half the bands my son listens to so he thinks I know nothing of music. GAH! - Gina

I've been a kid and am an adult. Adult is better :) - Michael Gartenberg

Love that I can afford the latest techno gadgets and try out new hobbies. Hate the gray hair and the aching bones after a good workout. - Alfred C. Chen

Love: feeling more comfortable in my skin, broader perspective, increased earning power, knowing my stuff (most of the time, anyways); Hate: needing so much sleep, wrinkles - Erin Collopy

Love the wisdom that comes from experience. Hate having to think about how finite our time is. - LogEx

Love that a growing level of experience and knowledge allows for the generation of a number of ideas. Frustrated by knowledge and skill deficits necessary for successful execution that is revealed by those very same ideas - Marco(aureliusmaximus)

I hate everytime Vera tells me I sound grumpy like my dad, and in the back of my head, I know I do. - Dave@yummyporky

I hate that I am no longer "kiddo" at the office. I love that I know all the songs on Guitar Hero and rock harder than my kids:-) - bdsanchez

Love that I've learned to breathe and what is really important - Hate that I need more time to recover from things. - Jane Quigley
