Do you look younger or older than your actual age?

Apparently I look like I could still be in high school.

I'm 22.

You?

People say I look 16 or 17...that pisses me off, especially when I walk into a patient's room and they say, "Are you following your dad for work?"

Grrr...makes me want to place their IV wrong :evil:

When im by myself ppl say i look younger... but if my husband is with me, then they will compare the 2 of us and think that since hes older that I must be too. Last summer someone thought I was in my 30's! :(

The results seem skewed to younger. There are 2 possible explainations for this.
1) Hollywood has changed our perception of what a "typical" person looks like for a given age.
2) ATOT is populated by babyfaced geeks.

I wonder which one it is? :confused:

no wrinkle, young looking. but put on wieght that makes me feel old, therefore I think I look old.

But b/f says he swears that I look in my early 30's. My mom is 67 but looks in her 50's and dad is 72 and looks it!

I think I probably look a little older than I am -- I'm 23 and don't get carded nearly as often as I did even a year ago. Part of it's the premature silvering of my hair, I'm sure, as well as a little extra weight that I've put on (so I don't look like quite as much like a skinny young geek now, heh). Also maybe due to wearing glasses more often than contacts these days.

Although I did get one of those door to door magazine sellers yesterday who had a shocked reaction when I answered that I was indeed the man of the house, heh.
