Do you look younger or older than you are?
Do you look younger, older, or the age that you actually are?
|
People have always thought I look younger, and then look at me surprised when I say my actual age.
Although being upper 30s now, I think I'm starting to edge into people actually thinking I'm around 30 and no longer upper 20s, so that's a little sad. lol But I held onto it for a long while. |
Younger, obviously. Even I can't believe I'm over 30 now.
I probably look like I'm in my early/middle 20's. |
I've always looked young for my age, especially considering how short I am. That being said though, being overweight does make you look a great older.
BTW, Cubed, my sister's turning 40 this July. Wait'll we reach that age!!! |
Quiet, we do not speak that number that shell not be named! :lol:
Although when I get there in a couple years I look forward to clinging to still looking 30s for a good long while. If/when I finally bend and decide to put back some of the hair color that's gone missing maybe I can back it up even further. Although in relation to that other thread, holding onto your youth is a good reason to not smoke. Ages the skin and sooner or later a smoker is just going to look old before their time. |
Well 30 is the new 20, is 40 the new 30?
|
Seems to vary. I've passed for several years older, & several years younger. I was getting into 21+ clubs from 17 onward, & have also been belligerently carded at 24. :tlol: I'm 26 now & some recently made friends thought I was like 21. Shrug.
|
A lot of people that I meet think I'm older than I actually am.
|
I stopped getting carded to buy liquor... so that's probably a bad thing.
|
People are often surprised when they find out I'm ancient.
|
Everyone at School tells me I look like a Sophomore and Junior, when I'm actually a Senior.
|
I'm 19 but people often mistake me for being in my mid-20s. It may have to do with my height, build and that I usually wear formal clothes unlike most people of my age.

I've got you beat. I'm 40 but most people think I'm late 20's or MAAAYBE 30. Quote:
I'm already there! Believe me it's no picnic. I keep waking up with every joint sounding like a bowl of rice crispies. Quote:
Agreed. The less that number is mentioned the better. Though I'm starting to get hair like Rogue's in how it grows in, so that's kind of cool. I just recently started an anti-wrinkle/aging cream regimen when I discovered that the skin of my neck and jaw was beginning to sag a little. So I wanted to halt that before it gets really noticable, as that can really age a person looks-wise. |
The numbers:
20: Young with hopes and dreams for the future 30: Realize how the world works, generally settle into your career or love life 40: Realize you're now officially old, you're up there in the years but still can do things young people can do just with some aches and pains 50: Basically you realize you're in the old person stage. Enjoy what little energy you have left 60: You become a grandparent, or have already been one. You spend your days waning about lazily and trying to recapture your youth by visiting your kids or grandkids 70: Waiting to die 80: If still alive, you know you can die any day or wake up dead tomorrow 90-100: Kill me now |
My girlfriends grandma is a 101 year old Irish immigrant. Sharp as a tack and walks about a quarter mile every day.
|
People generally assume I'm a student when they meet me. This year is my 20 year high school reunion.
|
I have always looked young for my age and everyone has always assumed I'm in my twenties when I'm actually thirty-four. Many people say that's a blessing for me and that maybe it'll last when I'm older. We'll just have to see. However, I do have some gray hairs, but I started getting that in my twenties.
|
Apparently younger, but that's probably only when I'm clean shaven. When I was a teenager, I was told that I look, and even sounded older than, which I found to be wicked frustrating.

Men are lucky, having the ability to alter the appearance of age with facial hair.
