So yes, anyone else here have this problem? What are the causes for this?

 

I apparently look older to a few I know.

Observation: I am often told I look very young for my age.

 

Cause: I'm a Chinaman. And I moisturize.

 

Effect: I may not be taken as seriously for dating...? Who knows... :confused:

Yeah people still think I'm 18 and I'm almost 25. If that continues to happen I will be happy.

Lookswise definitely younger. I am 31 but I get between 25-28 all the time.

 

For a while on here people thought I was older based on my posts.

 

No complaints here.:cool:

I get 24 or 25 all the time.

 

 

 

I take it as a compliment.

Lets just see how things go once I AM 24 or 25. :laugh:

 

 

 

 

I peg it as to how I hold myself and based on how I come off once a conversation ensues.

So far I'm the only one that looks older...craaaaap. :lmao:

 

Some people think I look to be in my mid-thirties, when I'm just 23.

 

I'll just start taking it that I look mature. Mhmm. :cool:

10-12 years younger. :o

 

I don't know whether or not that is actually true,

but it's nice to hear nonetheless :bunny::)

 

Do you have wrinkles? Outdated hairstyle? (sometimes, very long hair can drag your face down)? Overly plucked eyebrows? An old lady hair cut?

 

Certain things can make you look older than you really are.

Wow...that's a big gap there. Lucky!

 

Nope, no wrinkles. And I usually have a buzz as far as hairstyles go. I trim my eyebrows, as they are usually bushy. :o 'Bout it.

I'm 24 but I've always been routinely mistaken for much older. Like 35 or so. About a year ago someone asked me if my brother and sister were my children.
