Not older, but I've been told I look too serious for my age. That's weird because i rarely wear my serious face.

Older. Unusual, since I am asian. But facial hair goes a long way with us.
Same here, except for me it's my height, build and deep voice that fool people into thinking i'm older than my 17 years.

A better example would be my mom, she's in her mid 40s but a lot of people have mistaken her for a 30 or even 20 year old, a couple of times when we were standing next to each other people have mistaken her for my sister!
Must be good being an asian woman, but fate decided i should be male and put up with dick jokes for the rest of my life.

I look very young for my age. I'm in my 20's, but many assume that I am a high school student. I always get carded when I order beer or liquor at restaurants, but not so much at bars.

I fear that my youthful appearance might be attributed to why women fail to approach me (haven't really been approached by a cougar either, so it's probably something else).

You look just like a friend mine from high school. Your name wouldn't happen to be zach would it lol? I'd say you look about 18-19, so pretty close.

Younger.
I'm 21 but people think I'm 16 or so. Honestly I'm okay with this, because I don't feel any more intelligent or mature than when I really was 16. I need to grow up mentally.

Nope, name's Allan. Plus, I live in Malta, so I doubt we've met.

I'm 18 with a harsh haircut and perma-stubble. People have always thought I look older than I am. Currently people tend to guess anything from 21-25.

+ I haven't been carded in about 2 years.

Depends on how much sleep I've had or what my stubble level is. When I'm clean shaven and well rested I still get carded occasionally for teh drink.

I'll be 28 on November 19th. I can quickly grow dark, coarse, fairly thick facial hair. However, when I'm clean-shaven, I often find people assuming I'm around 22-24. I've definitely noticed a slight aging of my skin since age 20, but I'm still wrinkle-free. Hell, when I was 20 I looked 16. Considering my socio-economic status and certain facets of my maturity level (I can have quite a childish sense of humor), it's probably better that I look young. I mainly seem to attract girls who are 2-4 years younger than I am.

I do look kinda hollowed out and underweight/older in this photo. Weird.

I guess I get pegged maybe 1-3 years younger than I am. People think I'm out of HS and in college right away, not the case. Still they think me a bit younger.
Than again, I'm never asked for ID.

Now months ago when I had a mustache, and just a mustache. (I had to shave the goatee off for work, latter finding out I didn't). The millwrights I was working with though I was about 28 or so, some placed me at 30. I do look much older with it. I shaved it off when I was out west on the job, being thought of as so much older didn't sit with me well.
Than the next day all the millwrights were like "Hey, wheres the stash"? And I think one of them though I was a new guy.

I'm told I look a lot older than I am, someone once said I look late 20's, I'm 19.

I have a weird, two-setting appearance. If I don't shave, I look like a teen trying to look older so he can get into a bar. If I shave, I look like an older guy trying to look younger. I'm 19. This is a problem.

It depends really. People have trouble getting my age just from meeting me. I've had people get my age wrong by a margin of 9 years too young before which was when I was clean shaven for about a month.

It also depends on whether the streak of grey hair I have is visible or not; I've had it since I was in an accident when I was 7.

I get ID'd playing the lottery.
You only need to be 16 to play the lottery.
I'm 22.

I don't mind it really. It's kind of funny to me now. If I get an 18+ game or film, I see the look in the cashiers eyes and reach for my ID before they even say it.
I got lottery ID'd in Morrissons the other day for "Ask 25"... I'm 21 next week, was not amused > > They don't even ID me for booze and fags anywhere these days. I lakced my licence or passport so I threw a variety of student cards at the clerk until she sold me the damn tickets.

OT: Typically people say older, sorry no pic readily available but if you go through my profile to my twitter there's a couple there.
I'm told I look mid-late twenties, I have dark marks around my eyes and a lot of scars all over (not all are my own doing, most are from accidents or incidents). I look tired, broken, beat & scarred, which is a fairly accurate summation most of the time since I barely sleep these days.

Fun times : D
