Honestly, I don’t think there’s a set age where someone suddenly becomes “life experienced.” Some people get thrown into the deep end early—losing parents, raising siblings, working full time as teenagers—while others float through their 20s without much real pressure. But if we’re talking general life stuff like bills, rent/mortgage, juggling work, relationships, and maybe raising kids, I’d say people usually start gaining that kind of experience properly in their late 20s to mid-30s.
That’s when life tends to stop playing on easy mode (if it ever was), and responsibilities stack up. But even then, it’s not about age as much as it is what you’ve had to handle. Some 50-year-olds haven’t had to face half the sh*t a 25-year-old might’ve gone through. So yeah—age helps, but it’s not the whole story. Life experience is more about what’s hit you and how you’ve had to respond.

Hadn't thought of you in a long time
But you keep sending me funny valentines
And I know you think it comes off vicious
But it's precious, adorable
Like a toy chihuahua barking at me from a tiny purse
That's how much it hurts
How many times has your boyfriend said
"Why are we always talking 'bout her?"
