Too old for anime?
TMRNetShark:
I agree, Slice of Life is probably the most relevant anime genre. Nothing more enjoying being shown a story that can/likely has happened before in life. Even the fantasy based ones (Spice of Wolf) are still rooted in real relationships.
So don't limit yourself based on all of anime... just do as you please.

Well, in my perspective the Slice of Life-genre is perhaps the most powerful genre in anime (If it is played out well of course) It's the genre with the most maturity, due to factors Nikkoru and Shohei points out; Slife of Life mixed with some romance and drama; shaken not stirred - that is joy. But we all have different taste, thankfully. :)

36 years old here and still watching anime. Started when I was three!
Don't feel bad regarding anime, or animation in general, my friend. Remember: Animation are NOT cartoons. It's rather the other way around. Try watching Akira, or Ghost in the Shell, or anything from director Satoshi Kon and you'll get my meaning.
Bow, about feeling lonely: I'm also sort of a loner, but being alone gets kinda depressing to me. Some advice? Try getting in some sort of extra curricular activity that you like: A sport (I practice martial arts, myself), an art course, extracurricular school or college programs, heck, a cooking course, anything you like! You will almost invariably meet some people with similar tastes as you.
And remember: Nobody is perfect. NOBODY. So a little tolerance and, yes, a smile, will get you a long way. Variety is what keeps things interesting, and respect is what keeps us together as a society.

There is a guy who is watching anime even after he has died. I think you are still young enough so....

People seem to forget/not consider that anime is made by adults. Just look at Miyazaki Hayao or Takahata Isao. Nobody considers them too old, quite the opposite even.
