Hello,

I'm 22, turning 23 in december. Always been and always will be a proud H/Hr shipper to the end.

I turned 29 this June. Glad to have you aboard, and I hope you enjoy your stay in pumpkin land.

Ms.Scribe

I'm turning 16...in November. Then I get to drive! Woo!

Anyway, it's great to see so many different ages that love HP(and H/Hr)

I'm 14. Have been since may 12th.

I am 18 years old, and I admire and respect all H/Hr shippers, not matter their age. I think older people who like harry potter and are shippers are really cool!!

Sorry britmizit, i'm the youngest. I believe so. I'm 6 days older than emma watson which means my birthday is april 9th, 1990. i'm thirteen. But that's okay, we can be the youngest together!

Realistically I'm almost 19.

I look about 24.

Sometimes for fun I act around 10.

My friends get quite confused *nods*

holla peaple i turn 16 in november....hehehe cant wait

ohh Phillamb i do the same thing with my friedns man i go on 7 and dude they be freakin on me haha

Hi!

I am a 26 years old woman, who will turn 27 on August 13th.
And I am a die-hard H/H shipper

*handles pumpkin pie to everyone*

Long life to our ship!!

Bye!

well , i am 22 years old.
in univversity to become a teacher for 6 to 9 years old.
the kids are usualy 12 to 16 years old.
don´t know how your school system works so.
but that´s the magic of JKR, she writes in a way that, works on anyone at all ages.
the funny thing that i was reading the first HP book for mine niece(lovely girl), she only wanted her uncle(me) to read the hp books to her last summer.
besides that i captured mine interest in the HP books, it also captured her intereset in reading too more then hp books.

and we could all see the characters develop in a way that is "realistic" too, not the "perfect", adn we "older" maybe we can see some things that the younger readers hasen´t expiereced yet, while we older have been in similar situations like in the hp book and see "deeper" feelings.

great books they are.

I turned 26 in Feburary I'm glad to know there are people of all ages into this series of books. Its fun for all ages

So I'm only 14. But I will be 15 in October, thank you very much. And I'm dreadfully mature for my age.

Wow! I had no idea there was such a broad range of ages on this site! I think that it's amazing that Harry Potter appeals to so many people, no matter what the age.

I'm 13 by the way. Going on 14 on October the 24th. (Yes, I'm an ickle H/Hr shipper!) And, everyone tells me I'm mature for my age... but I don't think I'm that mature, some times I scare myself at how childish I act. Well, anyway... I hope people keep posting their age! It's fun to see how old (or should I say young?) people are.

Sweet

wow, I have never met anyone with the same birthday as me. I will be 21 on Oct 24th.

Yay! I'll be 21 on 11th October! Go us librans...

I look nowhere *near* 21 though I still look about 17, I reckon. I'm too short (like, 5 feet/ 1.52 m). Bah....

Tisty xxx

Actually, I am on the day it changes from Libra to Scorpio. I am a little bit of both. Interesting mix if I do say so myself.

Don't worry about the short thing. I have a friend that's 28 and only 4'11. I am 5'6.

Oops.

Don't sweat it. Happens all the time.

Lol, try being 5'8" and people still don't believe your 20! People keep asking me what year I'm in at school
And then you get the standard "Well, you won't mind so much in a few years." I hate that! (I hate the fact that it's probably true as well )

When I was still in high school people were asking me what my major was, now that sucks.

I'm 14 going on 15 this September. When people ask how ald I am the most common thing I hear is "No, really how old are you.." or "Oh Shit! No one your age could be that tall!"

Librans huh? I'll turn 20 on October1st. And I tell ya, I was visiting Asia during the OotP release and wow! it wasn't like in England at all; the queue of ppl was short compared back home (i was watching BBC). I was like, 'that's mad...' my Asian cousin got offended but went back to England with me anyway.

R/H ers are quite young...i don't see a lot of R/H smut.

I agree, the HP´s magic is to all ages. I´m 33 and turned HP fan, after buy the PS to my son. Read fanfic is now my favourite past time.

Harry Potter has brought me and my son (15) closer together. We discuss Harry Potter every day. We have both read all five books and we question one another about small points. He has achieved several excellent grades on oral book reports on the Harry Potter books he has read. His grades are improving because he has found out that he likes to read. The Harry Potter books have been beneficial to our family more than JK Rowling will ever know.

I've noticed the age pattern as well, and posted about it But I'm 15, almost 16 (can't wait...sweet 16...getting off the subject yet again :-P) and most of H/Hr shippers tend to be a little older than my peers Frankly, sometimes, it's more interesting and certainly more educational to talk to older fans, they seem to catch on to symbolism a lot quicker Maybe it means that H/Hr shippers will be satisfied in the end? I hope so!

ok... im turning 13 on 31st july ! harry potters birthday ! lol... true
the 2nd...hehe

What variety of ages we have! I'm in the youngin group.

14 going on 15 next year in March...

People tend to say I'm mature for my age. *scrunches nose* Don't know if it's a compliement?

22 as of March....strangers tell me I look 18, but it's hard to tell if people are being polite or not. Anyways, doesn't matter as I still feel fourteen

16 here.

Wow...we've got a diverse group of people here don't we? I just turned 16 in May.

ok... im turning 13 on 31st july !

NOO! I wanted to be the youngest!

Not that it matters, of course, coz I still look old for my age. On the same day I had one person ask me if I would be a senior in HS next year, and another ask what college I was going to this fall. And I say I'm 13 and they get embarrassed they ever asked. And I'm only 5'2"...It's not like I'm 5'10" or something. It's very funny actually.

I like the diversity of the good ol' ship. It's more fun!

my age depends greatly on the mood i'm in. but physically i'm 18, and will be 19 in 2 months.

Well I trun 28 in October

17, bday is June 10th.

I turned 16 in March

Try having been 5'8 when you were still a month or so short of 13 and having people stare at you because you were already taller than you're mom...
No fun.

I surpassed my mom when I was 14, is that bad? *shrugs* I'm 5'7, I believe. And my mom is about 5'2 *lol* I'm the tallest girl in the family. Pretty odd considering the fact that both of my parents happen to be shorter than me as well as my grandparents

I will be 16 July 29 I cant wait!

I just turned 17 on the 17th of June But I only act my age when I'm not so hyperactive... usually I'd act about 8 or 10...

Me and my bananas don't ask...

wow... I'm 6'2

Yes I realise that I'm a tall, hyperactive girl... lady... woman...! My mum is 6'0 so I probably passed her height when I was 14, I was always the tallest one in the class in Primary school, and early high school... My sister is now 5'10 and she's only 10, and I think she might be taller than me My brother is 6'3 and my dad is 6'2 Not that anyone cares!

"My sister is now 5'10 and she's only 10, and I think she might be taller than me "

What I mean to say is she's 13 and I she become taller than me...

Hi wow there r alot of older hp fans here...i feel 2 young im only 13

Being young is good... GOOD GOOD GOOD!

Dreamer~

Most of the time, I feel too old for this fandom. I'm 32.

Oh, and 5'7 if that matters.

Jori

Nobody is too old for HP! I was coaxed into it by my Great Aunt, who is in her 40's because she loves them too. That's what's great about Harry Potter, it's great for all ages!

13 year old here!! I'm happy to see that the HMS Pumpkin Pie lets all ages in! That's terrific!! And I agree that JKR does have the magic in her books to have all ages love them! Heck, my grandma reads the Harry Potter series! Just goes to show you how loveable the characters are and how great the books are as well! It's wonderful to see people of all ages enjoying a book like Harry Potter!!!

Whoever said that HP is just for kids, doesn't have an imagination! Half of my friends love HP, some arn't interested because they don't read, but find it interesting and love the movies (not love love but enjoy them enough).

My mum who is 45 loves, loves, LOVES HP! As soon as I've read the books, she gets straight into them. I tell her all the latest interesting news on HP and she enjoys discussing about it with me. We don't talk about it all the time, but only when something interesting has happened.

Dreamer~

I, happen to be only 12!!! Though, I am very mature. I started reading the books about four years ago. THUMBS UP TO THE OLDIES!! WE YOUNG PEOPLE LOVE YOU, TOO!!!

J.K. ROCKS!!!

Ah, yes, I still remember the local librarian handing me a book called Harry Potter and the Philosepher's Stone when i was twelve 6 years ago, she really knew what kind of books i read. And i have a debt to her for the rest of my life..

Ahh yes... my very first REAL book. I was a bit of a lazy arse when I was about 11, and I hated books... I hated the thought of books, I hated everything about books...

It was when my Mum said, "Jess, you really gotta get off your lazy arse and do something about that brain of yours... stop looking at that friggen T.V and start reading a book damnit!" that kind of got me inspired to read a book.

I hated dissapointing my mother, so I went to the libaray to have a look around. I never found any of the books interesting there and I never got passed the 20th page, but I always had a desire for fantasy. So, before the christmas of '97' I asked my mum if she could get a me a book, something to do with fantasy. And guess what I got? Thats right! I got Harry Potter and the Philosepher's Stone.

I guess you could say that that book saved my life. I lived a pretty miserable life, and I always thought that I had no talent for anything. It was an escape from reality... it helped me.

J.K Rowling inspired me to write and read. I guess you could say it was kind of like an adventure. With all the new interesting stories I read and wrote. I've won several awards in the writing competitions, not that my stories are any good or anything, but I enjoy writing them. JKR is kind of like a hero to me, a brilliant woman with an amazing imagination! And I have a been a big fan of Harry Potter ever since...

I know this all sounds pretty corny, but well, I just had to express my love for the books...
