Do you lie about your age?

I told someone today that I'm 24, 5 years younger than my actual age. I could tell she didn't believe me. I feel old.

I'm 16 but I look mature for my age and often get mistaken for a college student. When people I don't know think I'm in college, I don't correct them. It's not like I'll ever see them again anyway.

Nope.

If I tell someone my age, or make them guess, they think I am at least 10 years younger then I am. I was still getting carded at 35, LOL. Now, not so much. :eek:

Sorry to hear that others do not have this problem. Maybe some hair color is in your future? Or hair implants?

The trouble is, my teeth do look their age, oh well, you can't have everything. But I won't trade my toxic soup soda pop for anything! But a good glass of tea works, too.

Nah, usually I have to correct them. I rock an awesome full blown goatee +/- sideburns (I'm lazy with shaving). Its pretty much been that way since I was 16 (18 now), but the goatee has been there since I was 14. Apparently it adds years to your age.

Facial hair FTW

I look even younger with facial hair, go figure. If I grow some, I will get carded again, heh.

I am 30 but most people don't believe me. I keep getting told I look 24, but act like a 12 year old.
