Who doesn't look their age?

[RedRaphie]

Okay, I'll be turning 25 next Saturday (the 20th) and what ticks me off more then anything is the fact I don't look my age at all! People always mistake me for way way younger! I'm talking 16 and under. I wouldn't go back if someone paid me too. Does anybody else not look or feel their age? I espically hate it when this younger generation looks like they could pass off for models and they're only like freaking 17 years old. I would have killed to look like some of these girls do now.

I get the same thing. 25 and mistaken for 16. My mom told a person at my grandmother's nursing home that I was married, and the person was like "But She's sooo young!" My mom was like, "She's 25" and said person said "She looks like she's 16!"
Exact words.
So yea, I get it too, and it gets annoying. But think, when we are 40, they will think we are in our 20's or 30's. It comes with some bonuses.

it doesn't come with a bonus for me I'm 21 and people usually guess from 23-27!! I've had it all my life which was great when i was younger , when i was 15 my sister was 18 (the legal drinking age in Ireland) and we went into a pub I got served and she got asked for ID she was furious it was hillarious. then again I've always felt and acted alot older than my age been engaged since I was 20, drinking since 15 now I'm like an old granny i sit at home on a saturday night with my fiancee and watch tv when I should be out partying but college will soon fix that 4laugh

[Lacuna Sidera]

let's see, I'm...26 now...-waves the birthday flag and sighs-

And I haven't been carded to buy vodka since I was 22...and the liquor store has signs that state bluntly, if you look under 30, you will be carded...

apparently I look over 30 ._.;;

I blame the receded hair line bloody genetics  

[mushy banana paste]

well im 25 and i look like im 15-16 and since i have kids its kind of amusing at times when we go to say the zoo and people think my hubby is kissing his daughter .. because hes 30 and looks about 40 LOL gotta love that though...im like hey hun think of it this way when you are 50 ill look 20 and all the other guys at the poker games will think you have a younger chick LOLOL so yeah i look like im 15 and find it amusing when i get odd looks when in public with my kids lol

I am 24 and I still get carded for R rated movies rofl which you have to be 18 to get into here in the US. I also have had people think i was between 16-18 years of age. I take it as a compliment because it means I age well xd . I would never ever ever go back to my HS years though, but I still feel very young and still act it a lot to. I should probably be on the show What NOT To Wear though because I have no since of style and no clue how to work the body I have.  

[irrelavant]

I grew my beard out so that I wouldn't get carded anymore. lol  

[blubombay]

IM 28 GOING ON 29 AND A MOTHER OF A 6 YR OLD AND WHEN PEOPLE ASK ME MY AGE I TELL THEM TO GUESS THEY GIVE ME AGES BETWEEN 18 AND 23 AND I LOVE IT I FEEL THAT I WILL NEVER LOOK OLD AND BUT I STILL GET CARDED EVERYWHERE I GO AND I LOVE THAT TOO I MEAN I SEE THIS LIL KIDS THAT ARE THE AGES THAT THEY SAY I LOOK AND THEY LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE HAD A HARD LIFE CAUSE THEY LOOK OLDER THEN ME  

[jellysundae]

I look younger than I am, but not by a huge amount. I'm 37 but most people think I'm 30ish. I'll give someone a look over the top of my glasses if they try and say they thought I was 25 or something though. Because that's horseshit and I don't like suck-ups xD.
But I spent most of my adult life working in a windowless box and I don't smoke, nor do I drink much.
So 20+ years of no damage caused by the sun, nicotine or alcohol has stopped me from ageing prematurely.

I feel sorry for young girls who get into a heavy smoking habit early on, because they're gonna look 10 years older than they really are by the time they hit 40 ._.

im 22 and at college kids think i just got out of high school. ive also been told i have a 'baby face' i can understand why. i gained some weight so now im face is round like a gerber baby. i tried growing a goatee but it never came in quite right.  

[Kamika Sugi]

Lol it is Jelly. gal I miss you, anyway You kiddies have got to hear this one. When I was in my 3rd year in college I was on spring break and I was passing through Kennewick, Washington, heading to my cousins who were living in Orfino, Idaho. Anywqay as it was I had a few problems with my Harley and I dropped it off at Shumates Harlies in Kennewick to get repared. I was walking around down town Kennewick window shopping and this cop pulled up and asked me to get in his cop car, and when I asked why he would not say other then I was loitering. Being an upstanding person I did as I was asked and he took me to the Kennewick Juvy to my surprise. When I asked whuzzup I was told to be quiet and they escorted me into the kids house of corrections. They more or less booked me, never asked me my age and when I finally got to talk to someone they would not believe me and commensed to try to find my parents. It took them 7 days till they finally found my father in Hawaii and he asked them why they were holding me. They told him they thought I was skipping school, they thought I was only 14 and that I was lying about my age. When they let me out they gave me a ticket for obstructing justice and loitering. It cost me $45 at that time which was just about all I was caring on my person. $45 dollars back then was like caring $250 on your person now. Well I walked to Shumates and picked up my Harley and drove on over to my cousins. Now My cousin was an attorney both in Washington and in Idaho and when he heard what I went through he told me we were going to take on the City of Kennewick. So we sued the city for a horse and saddle, because he always wanted to try doing that, and lol we won and even all the time spent in juvy and the trumped up charges they gave me. He took the Quarter horse and I got the saddle. Cool huh, dam good summer vacation, like a wild ride. I sold the saddle several years latter for more then it was worth.

I'm 22 and most people believe that I am around, oh, 15. It's so embarssing. neutral My gf is 24 and most people think she's 16. I hate people thinking I'm in high school.  

[Captain Kurse]

Yup, I get carded as well. I'm 27, but every time I go into a new liquor store I have to get out the I.D. and prove to them I am a product of 1981. I suppose it's a good thing since you get to look young for a lot longer!
