Do you look younger or older than your actual age?

[yobarman]

i'm 20, but im 6'5" so people always think im early 20 something. Either way i still pass off as being able to drink, even though i get IDed in NY state all the freakin time.

Younger. I'm out of college but people think I'm still in college. One guy asked me if I was still in HS. There have been many times when someone would come to the door and ask me if my parents are home.

 

[clamum]

Younger... I'm 21 but my gf's coworkers joke that I'm 14. Good thing I guess

EDIT: I look like my avatar w/o glasses!

 

[patrick409]

I'm 2 days away 22, probably look about 19ish.

Get carded for alcohol 2 outa 3 times.

 

[TitanDiddly]

Older. Somebody thought I was 18 when I was 15, once.

 

[FuZoR]

younger but not much...

20... people say im 18.

Though people say i act like a little hs kid 14-15.

 

[TekChik]

younger, which for me (woman in mid-30's, <gulp>) is GREAT!

i'm 33 and last week when i was buying some wine at the county-controlled liquor store, where they HAVE to ask for ID if you look younger than like 30, the guy looked at my ID 3 times before he handed it back and said "keep doing whatever you're doing"

 

[PoPPeR]

younger, which is probably the main reason why I'm not considered for most non-fast food jobs right now

Most ppl think they look younger than reality.

At 28 I took a friends not very attractive daughter to her senior prom, I passed for 20 It's weird I know.

At 58 most think I'm 45 when I shave off my gray beard. Beard on, the wrinkles around the eyes give up the game.

Age MAY have something to do with wisdom but even the very young can be extremely intelligent/knowledgeable.

 

[pr0craztinazn]

not yet 18, yet when i was doing college visits i kept getting mistaken for one of the juniors or seniors giving campus tours and similar things like that.

 

[Cyco]

Most people say I look like I'm in my early-mid 20s and I'm 30, so I'd say younger. Act younger too.

 

[bradruth]

I'm 20, look about 22-23.

 

[Kelemvor]

Especially if I'm clean shaven. I'm 29.5 and get carded all the time. Most people think I look more like 23-24 or so.

 

[Dedpuhl]

I cannot recall ever being carded for alcohol. Heck, everyone at my old job thought I was close to 30 when I was actually 18, so I was buying alcohol then. I did, however, get carded when I'd go to the riverboats. They card everyone, though.

 

[Orsorum]

I'm 20, in my third year of undergrad; I've been asked since my first summer here whether I was a grad student, and that's only gotten worse in the last year. In the last few weeks I've divulged my age to a few of my peers, and they've all said that they thought I was 24 or 25.

Odd.

Cheers!

[warcrow]

I've been told I look much younger than 30

 

[rezinn]

Depends if/when I shaved.

 

[Mr N8]

I'm 24, most say they think I'm anywhere from 19-21. Its even worse when I'm out with my wife, because apparently she looks 16-17, and she's 24, also.

 

[BullyCanadian]

people think sometimes i'm younger then my younger brother...

 

[AvesPKS]

I'm 21 and going bald. You figure it out.

Not quite.

 

[PanzerIV]

Younger looking by 4-5 years.

 

[Mr.IncrediblyBored]

I'm 21. When I'm clean shaven, people tend to guess pretty accurately. I've got a scruffy beard going for me, so I look a few years older now.

 

[Tiqua]

Younger. Currently 28 and people guess my age in the early 20s. I still have a few people scold me for being a truant.
