Hello.

Please I would want to know the correct form to say, and If this question belong to that part of grammar called "Conditionals"?

1.- When you were my age...
2.- When you are my age...
3.- When you get to my age...

The context is when giving advice. For example: "When you (...) You will think I was right".

Thanks for your help.
 
1.- [STRIKE]When you were my age[/STRIKE]...
2.- When you are my age, you will think I was right.:tick:
3.- When you get to my age, you will think I was right.:tick:
The underlined clauses are temporal (time), not conditional clauses.
 
I understood clearly, thank you so much.
