What age at the minimum makes a late bloomer?

[GoldPenny]

First time getting a job:

First time consistently working (for the most part and not just summer jobs or gaps because of school and social life or whatnot)?

First time moving out on their own without parental /legal guardians' help in finances:

First time having sex:

First time dating:

First time learning how to drive:

 

N/A wherever you feel.

 

What about other factors of a late bloomer?

No idea - why don't we draw up some averages. And as it's your topic, you can start

[SoleMate]

Oooooohhh, fun topic! I'll go first. These are relevant for the United States only and completely off the cuff.

well SR...I know a girl who's 45 who still lives with her elderly parents, she never moved out. I also know someone who never learned to drive and he is like 34. I have met many guys in their 40s who still haven't gotten laid and I know of people who had their first date in their 30s.

 

But then again I have much more life experience than you SR and have seen more

it wasn't the number 30 I was reacting to. I just think it is amazing that you managed to do all those things at exactly the same age. I thought you were joking. I guess 30 is your lucky number.

Haha...looks like I'm an early starter...but in reality a late developer as I feel the factors above are just about getting started in life...

 

There's so much more after we leave college and after getting laid :-)

I'm going to say minus the sex thing, over 20.

[GoldPenny]

Some of you guys either had very good initiative character or had parents that knew what they were doing with you . In my family, it's Waterboy's mother combined with Of Mice and Men's big, dumb friend (without the strength height). I came from an Asian trash family.

According o this, I am late bloomer with sex and dating. I've never had them. Well, I had my first sexual activity (non-penetrative) when I was five and then when I was six. If this past has anything to do wtih my virginity today subconsciously, I'm pissed. I don't feel it's a burden consciously, but I did start really thinking about sexually/romantically being boys only recently, and I'm almost 21.
