Not looking your age?

[Dark42]

I?m 19 I?ve been told I look anywhere from 19 to 22, I have no idea how there can be such a big gap. My guess is it depends on what I?m wearing. If I wear a suit I look younger, but in my leather jacket I look older......how does that work?

I have always been taller than my age. Now I am fifteen, so looking like sixteen is not a stretch, but I remember when I was 12 if I stood up straight and said I was sixteen I could pass as sixteen easily.

A beard always helps getting you look older... Im glad i started early on that, i could buy booze when i was 14...

I'm 18 next week, I've looked like a college student for over 3 years now. So in theory, I look about 23-24.

Beards > ID.

I'm sure you'd have no problems showing this post (an translating, if you aren't native Brit/American/Aussie) to your parents.

I'm 18 yet people always assume I'm a few years younger than I actually am. Quite annoying.

I'm 21, turning 22 this December 13th, and people think I look 15 or 16. I used to get annoyed by it, but now I think of the big picture. Like when I'll be in my 40s, I'll look about 30ish. Lol. Every female in my family looks younger than what they are.

I don't consider it a big deal.

I'm 14, and people say I look 21-22. Well they do when I don't shave. And apparently I talk and act as mature as an "old fashioned guy". Not my fault I believe women deserve proper treatment.

I'm 21 and people always think I'm 16. The only reason I'm not carded at my local EB is because I go there so much that they know I'm not underage.

I look several years younger than I am, but it varies depending on who I am talking to. I'm 14 and people my age think I'm 12, people older than me think I am my actual age.

for the last 2 years I was told I looked around 18-19. Now that I actually am that age, I'm told I look 21, ah the joys of puberty and changing facial features.

I'm 24 on average though; I'm considered to look more like 18. Can't say it bothers me much, looking younger then you are isn't a bad thing if you ask me... har.

When I was 16 people thought I was 18-20. Twelve years later and people think I am between 22 and 25. Aside from filling out my build I don't look like I have aged all that much over the last decade or so, and I don't really look any older now then I did when I was 24.

I talk of my magnificent beard often, but I keep it so I look more my age, and so I don't get carded all the time when I buy smokes and booze.
