Do you look older or younger than you are?

[Nantucket_v1legacy]

Apparently I look older.

I was in the pub last month with five friends (we're all 21+) and it was my turn to buy the drinks. The guy asked for everybody's IDs except mine. I asked if he wanted to see mine and he said he thought I was 30! Cheeky bastard, I was the youngest there!

I like to think it was because I dressed for work whereas they had T-shirts and shorts on. ¬__¬

 

[Nothing Identifiable]

People say I look older than I am. I suppose it's just my height, as I'm pretty tall.

Adorable! ...I guarantee I'm not the only person who thinks that...

I look a bit younger than my age. I'm 24 and look a bit younger than that because of my baby-face. No real wrinkles to speak of, no grey hair, etc. Without my face-hair I look like a teenager again too.

You look a lot like your avatar. It's very... uncanny.

OT: I look like I'm 17 when I'm only 20. It used to be a lot worse, when I was mistaken for a third grader when I was fifth grade. :S

 

[OctoH]

Older. Unusual, since I am asian. But facial hair goes a long way with us.

 

[chozo_hybrid]

I look younger. As a man in his 20's, that's a blessing.

Same here dude, people often think I'm 18/19 but I turn 25 this year in december, so I count it as a good thing. I have ID and don't care about being asked for it, as I have to do it as part of my job too, so I understand.

 

[MammothBlade]

Maybe 3 years younger than I actually am... I rarely get asked for id though, so I wonder if I'm wrong.

 

[DoPo]

Older. I very rarely get asked for ID, unless it's a regulation to ask everybody. That has been going on since I was 14, by the way, and even then it went on like this "Are you at least 18? "Yes." "OK."

 

[Eddie the head]

Ehh, depends if a shave or not.

High five! We're awesome. I'm hoping to hang on to all of my hair and boyish good looks for as long as I can. And yup, legally being able to drink alcohol is pretty sweet!

 

[thesilentman]

I look like a college student, people say[footnote]Psst! I'm fifteen.[/footnote]. Can't find a recent picture though, I'm insanely camera shy.

We are awesome. Also, just want to say, awesome avatar.

Probably depends on if I have shaven recently. I think I would generally look around 19 though maybe plus or minus a year based on facial hair.
Though once someone said I sounded like I was 40 on Xbox Live if that counts. I was about 17 or 18 then, so only a year or two ago.

 

[Mid Boss]

Younger

I'm 31 and people think I'm in my mid 20s.

 

[Bazaalmon]

I'm 21, and I've been told that I look 15-16. Then I grew my beard, and now nobody says that.
I was given kids menus in restaurants until I was 18.

 

[username sucks]

People usually think I'm way older than I am. Im 16, but since i'm so tall and have the most deep voice in the universe people usually think im in my twenies or thirties. Lack of sleep also probably attributes to that.

 

[Lectori Salutem]

I pretty much look younger than I am.
It used to be quite annoying, with people estimating me to be 12 when I actually was 16, but it isn't too bad nowadays. Yay facial hair, I guess. (Even though it's only some sort of a silly, half-assed goatee)

 

[shadow741]

I'm 14 with a full beard, think of that however you like.

 

[ChocoFace]

Let's just say i was buying cigarettes for my friends when i was 14.
(my height and build have fooled a lot of people).

 

[Matt King]

i'm 16, but i'm 6"5 and people say i look older from a distance, i also have fairly long hair covering some of my face (guy) but i am blonde so facial hair takes an ass of a time to grow, i think if i could realisticly grow facial hair i would look a lot older
