At 40 how childish are you?

I RECENTLY IN DECEMBER DECIDED TO REMOVE THE INTAKE ON MY TRUCK. MONEY WASN'T THERE TO PUT A NEW ONE IN SO ITS BEEN SITTING THERE FOR THIS LONG. LIKE THREE DAYS AGO WE FINALLY WERE ASSURED THAT WE HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX IT WITH OUR INCOME TAX. SO THIS WEEKEND I HAVE A CHANCE TO SLAP IT ON. ONLY THAT MY KEYS HAVE GONE MISSING. I BELIEVE MY 40 YEAR OLD aunt HAS THEM CAUSE WE HAD AN ARGUMENT three days ago. THIS ARGUMENT ESCALADED TO HER DELETING MY WIFE AND I OFF OF FACEBOOK.... CHILDISH ****. NOW I HAVE TO TALK MY WIFE INTO SPENDING 120 FOR a NEW SET OF KEYS. SMH. OH AND I AM 60 % positive she has them.

so this brings me to the question how childish are you at your age. i know im childish as ****.. but damn im 28

So would you classify licensing, insuring and storing two of the vehicles in your stable while barely putting a few hundred miles on each every year as being childish at nearly 50-years of age........

Naw -- it's called living out your childhood dream and rewarding yourself for working your a$$ off since you left college.......

Now your aunt -- she just sounds like a piece of work with WAY too much time on her hands.......

Huh. Is that childish ? Perhaps a screw loose ? Sounds like something you should get away from..Definitely. Watch your back!

Why can't you just tell her that you believe she has the keys and would like them back

As for how childish I am .... I would say not at all

I'm 23 been working M-F (after school if I had it that day) since I was 15, bought a brand new truck at 17, bought a motorcycle at 18, bought a boat two years ago, and am currently looking at buying a house and looking at rings to propose to my GF of 3 years ...... also invest in the stock market

Yep, I'm on the fast track haha looking forward to my retirement years

60% sure ?

i would to know how you arrived at 60%.

why not just call her up apologize make things right then wait about 2 day and call her up and ask if she has seen your keys or maybe picked them up by accident. always give people a way out while saving face.

( you dont have to mean it, but it might get your keys back, assuming the other 40% dosent have them)

I'm mature enough to keep a spare key for everyone of my vehicles. If it didnt come with 2 I buy an extra the day I get it.
