    Has anyone ever told you that you're older or younger than you actually are?
    People always think I am in like, eigth grade when I actually care to shave.

    Does it annoy you?

    No.

    Flatter you?
    No.

    Have any stories?

    Whenever a new bus driver comes instead of the normal ones, they always ask me why I get on at the High School and not the Middle School, then I tell them I am a Junior and they give me the "o:" look.

    People often think I am still having my lower secondary education...

    It annoys me when someone asks "Aren't you too young for college?"

    I hated it when people say "Isn't it good to be/look young?"

    Makes me wonder why people like to be young but want to die old.

  • A few months ago I went to my stepsister's game with my stepdad.
    He's going to 50 in a month and I'm 18.
    The people we came in to pay thought I was his WIFE. -_-;

    And when I'm at work, if the discussion of school happens to arise, they assume I'm a senior in college--not high school. :p

    I look older. Not long ago went and bought some cigs for someone even though he was of legal age but I wasn't, yet I was more likely to get them because I look like I'm in my mid 20s.

    people randomly come up to me
    Well they're mighty odd...

    Everytime I go out to eat with my sister she orders a martini. I on the other hand always order a water. Right when I say I'll have a water the waitress or waiter will give me the weirdest look and then say, "Oh your not 21?" "You look so mature for your age!"

    Happens everytime.

    I'm 21 years old and I go to college. When people randomly come up to me, they tell me I look like a 18 year old freshman D:

    It does get on my nerves when they tell me this, but I find it funny when they get suprised when I tell them my real age :D

    Likewise man, whenever I meet new people they can't imagine how old I actually am since I have a face of a 17/18 year old high schooler. I love it when I tell them my real age and they get shocked.

    Having a young look isn't so bad sometimes but it does make the cops stop you more when driving. :P

  • Not so much anymore, but when I was about 12 I was always mistaken for a 14 year old (which I am now), but I haven't grown much since then, so... :(

  • I'm 21, but people think I'm younger than that. When I go to a liquor store with my friends, we all get ID'd because of me ^^; I know this for a fact because when I'm not with them they don't get ID'd hehe.

  • People usually think I am older than 17 because I am tall, I don't really mind though when people think this.

    Well.. I'm 22, but I'm short, and look about five or so years younger than I'am.

    Sooo most people who guess my age, think I'm 17 or 18.

    Someone guessed 15 once, too. xD;

  • The only time I've been mistaken by age was when someone though I was 18.
    And this is when I was 12 and I was the shortest kid in my classes...
