Do you look your age?

Globul · 9 Nov 2011 at 23:24

I've always wondered about this. I am really awful at guessing peoples ages, mainly because I look younger than I actually am. Does any one else have this problem or often gets mistaken for younger than they are? I think these days, with smoking and drugs and drink, it is ageing people prematurely (though I had a mad two years it didn't really affect me), and making it difficult to place the ages of some people I meet. Some of the guys I work with, I could have sworn were older than me, but turn out to be younger! Girls are a bit easier to age, but with the make up and clothes these days, sometimes you can't tell jail bait from legal drinking age

Taken aged about 35. You tell me.

LeJosh · 9 Nov 2011 at 23:25

Nope, never looked my age.

Apparently i look pretty young up to 10 years younger though i think that's maybe starting to change.

Cleeecooo · 9 Nov 2011 at 23:26

I look older than I am. I'm 24, usually get guessed about 26-27.

My OH is 24 as well - when he was 21, someone thought he was about 35

No, met a bunch of strangers at a meeting and they though I was 23-24, I am 28

I'm 18 (19 this Dec) and I don't think I look my ages and my friends/family think that as well. But saying that, I brought ID and I've been pub 4 times now and brought drinks from shop 2 times and never been ID'ed.

Mhm, I get 5-7 years younger at the moment, I wonder how long it will last though! Some people still can't believe my real age haha

robgmun · 9 Nov 2011 at 23:27

Appaerently i've always looked 28-30 since i was 18. So for most of my life i looked older but now i'm 35 i look a little younger yey!

SeraphX · 9 Nov 2011 at 23:29

LOLbritboy!
you look about 28, although i would have said you act about 13

Raminios · 9 Nov 2011 at 23:31

I look pretty much spot on my age. People guess it straight off.

Nick1881 · 9 Nov 2011 at 23:31

I'm always told I look younger by around 5 years.

King Damager · 9 Nov 2011 at 23:33

Hard to tell. I'm trying to get some light stubble to make me look slightly older to be honest. xD

My face is probably slightly young for my age.

I guess it's easiest to put it this way:
I'm 19.
I get id'd when I'm clean shaven. Never get id'd when I have a couple of days growth.
