younger or older than you look?

[moshquerade]

do you get told you look younger or older than you are, or do you just look your age?

 

[neutralizer]

No idea, but I think I look my age or maybe a little younger, i.e. I still get carded at theatres even though I'm pretty sure I look older than 17.

The mexican cooks at work all thought I was 24, when I'm actually only twenty...

Edit: hopefully I stay looking twenty four for a long time...

 

[darkxshade]

At first glance I look older than my age but when I open my damn mouth...

 

[GuitarDaddy]

I used to always look younger than actual age, but since I stopped letting my wife color my hair the snow on the roof gives me away

 

[SynthDude2001]

Generally people have told me I look older than I really am.

 

[KarenMarie]

ppl often think i am 10yrs younger than i am. i sometimes, have a hard time making ppl believe that I am VeggieFrog's mum.

I think i look like a fat, old hag... but others disagree.

I use good skin care products.

Younger

The face and my body language probably gives off that notion

 

[cheapgoose]

generally, people say I look about 5 years younger than I am.

 

[Geekbabe]

I don't know, I don't think I look 50 though, people are usually surprized to hear that I have grandchildren.

 

[Coquito]

I have alot of wear & tear.

I hear you my asian brother


but just think when we are around 30, we'll look like we're 21!

 

[Amused]

I am 38. I am told on a consistant basis that I look 28-30 years old. No one has ever guessed my age.

Younger. I get carded to buy canned air

 

[Drakkon]

depends on how i dress, if i shave or not, who im around.
Its funny when im out with my boss (who is 50 but asian so he looks maybe 30) and work guys (agged 27-40) im usually thought of as the oldest when in fact im the youngest (@24).
Then when im with dad and his buddies (all 60+) its pretty clear im the youngest and get treated like im 18 or younger
Every girl i meet seems to think I'm mid 30's if its at a coffee shop or around town, but at a bar/club its like I just turned 21.
Then the real kicker, when i interview guys to work under me, i get semi professional, again they think that im upper 20's-30, then when they actually do work under me they are blown away when they find out im younger. I have to admit its still wierd when the 40yr old dude comes into my office looking for help or asking for a day off.

muhahahah. that strikes me as funny.

For me, it depends on what I'm wearing. If I'm in work clothes, I've often been mistaken for 21-22, just because everyone assumes I'm fresh out of college with the job I have.

if I'm not in work clothes, then I normally get right around my age or a little younger.

 

[imported_LoKe]

Look older than I am. I can thank my facial hair for that.

 

[mrSHEiK124]

Anyone that's guessed my age usually guesses 17-19, I'm 15 :Q

LoL. Did you pay with CC or cash? Maybe that's another thing.

Of course then it also depends how I dress. I can look like a high schooler anyday if I dress right.

 

[Chaotic42]

When I was 21, someone told me I looked 31.

Long hours will do that to you, I guess.

 

[MercenaryForHire]

I've got about a 15-year span I can pass for, depending on hairstyle, clothing, etc.

[goodoptics]

way younger

Edit: Er, I meant people say I look way younger than my actual age.

 

[Alkaline5]

I'm 24 and look way younger. Luckily, I live in a college town and people there generally assume that I'm at least old enough to be in college. When I'm elsewhere I'm usually mistaken for a high school student.

 

[DaiShan]

Heh, I get carded to go into R rated movies. I'm 21 but apparently I look like I'm 16 lol.

 

[SSP]

A lot of people say I look like I just came out of a womb... so, I guess younger.
