Do you look older or younger than you are?

[The_Waspman]

Last time I got ID'd was when I was thirty. I was pretty incredulous. I could actually have said to the guy 'Buddy, I'm older than you!'

I guess that means I look younger? I'm almost 33, so I can still (just about) pull off Hollywood Teenager.

Realistically though, I still look about mid-twenties. I pedict it all going downhill very quickly soon though.

If I don't wash my hair, I have been told I look about 30, which can be explained because I'm using a Bosley Hair care product to reduce the balding I'm being hit with now. If I wash my hair, I think I can pull of 24.

I'm 22, by the way.

I'm almost 19, most common guess is 14-16. Nobody takes a word I say seriously but I can totally do that cheap student fares thing.

Yeah, I'd say you look about 15, but hey, it might help you out when you get older XD

Here is 18 yr old me!

Spoiler

I say I look 18, especially when I have a bit of stubble. I still have to be asked for ID at bars from time to time.

Why is the photo crooked? And just to be argumentative, I say you look 17!

I'm 20. People have told me I could pass for a 25 year old.

 

[solemnwar]

Younger. I'm 22, and I've had people think I'm like, 16 before.
I'M IN MY FIFTH YEAR OF UNIVERSITY GOD DAMNIT. AGHSLKSF.

Although it kind of depends on what I'm wearing and if I have makeup on. Makeup tends to make me look older.

I think people mistake me for early 30's mostly because i wear a beard.. are 26 year olds meant to be clean shaven or something? i think not.

What do you look like *feels like judging you*

I'm really not sure. When I started high school nobody thought I was a freshman, but a few weeks ago a gamestop employee asked for my ID when I was buying an "M" rated game.

 

[N_of_the_dead]

Depends

State side I apparently look younger according to people I know. When I was in Japan studying people thought I was older....a lot older was almost insulting. I was 20 and got the comment that I looked like I was 28 by several people. Would that be an insult or was I just taking it in the pride?

 

[OmniscientOstrich]

I'm 20. Clean shaven I think I look a fair bit younger, but otherwise I guess I roughly look my age. Not sure what other people think in this regard.

Spoiler: Guess, I dare 'ya!

A cashier once said that I looked way older than my age, a good thing if you ask me.

 

[Lugbzurg]

A friend of mine just stated yesterday that my younger sister looks around 4-5 years older than she actually is.

 

[Marksnus]

Im 22 and i think i used to look younger then i am before i got cancer and the doctors screwed me over.. atleast i dont ever need to worry about the hazzle with age verifaction ever again.

Hmm, I'd say 16-17? Your acne isn't too bad (I have seen far worse)

20! ... So I guess I look younger than I am. Not sure if that's a good or bad thing :/

 

[FootloosePhoenix]

To answer your question, allow me to share a brief exchange I had with an adult recently:
"You're in middle school, right?"
"...Grade 12."

Yeah. I think you get the idea. Though in most cases it's not as extreme; people will usually guess that I'm about two years younger than I actually am.

i'm sorry but i feel like i should be hauled away just for thinking how attractive you but yes you look alot younger than you are
