Do you look your age?

I'm 23 and still awaiting the day I'm no longer mistaken for a 17-year-old. Looking younger is nice if you're getting on in your years (since 'younger' in that case is still an adult), but as a 20-something trying to give the impression of a professional that's to be taken seriously, looking like a teen just isn't helpful at all. :/
 
I'm often mistaken for being older than I really am. When I was nine, somebody thought I was eleven. ^^'
 
Spoiler:

I'd say I look 15, I don't get the age assumption thing much, so there you have it.
 
I'm fairly short (5'1") and I rarely-if-ever wear makeup or anything so I've been told I look pretty young, more like a teenager than someone in her 20s. I always get carded if I'm trying to buy alcohol (or even an M-rated game). But I don't mind too much. I always hated the idea of growing up so if I still look young, that's a-okay with me.
 
When I was 13, I apparently looked older. Waiters at restaurants always asked why I wasn't having wine.

Now, I'm 22 and I guess I look my age
 
I'm 13 and I look 9 or 10. .-. Not that bad because I've barely started growing and I know I will.

or maybe i didn't drink enough milk and i'll NEVER grow up
 
[SIZE="a"]Im only thirteen but I look around 16 because of my serve as acne and chin stuble, its not fair why couldnt I look 18 so I could drink[/SIZE]
 
Do you look your age?
No I don't I actually look younger

If so, are you satisfied with this? '

'Given the chance, would you change your appearance to look younger or older?
I'm actually happy with my young appearance; i wouldn't want to look any younger than what I am or look

If you don't look your age, does it bother you?
I'm happy with my look

What do you think it is about you that makes you look younger or older (facial hair, "baby-like face", and so on)?
I was just told that I always looked 2-3 years younger than what I really am


:t354:TG
 
I just recently turned seventeen but I've had a few people tell me I look like I'm pushing early twenties. I'm not entirely sure whether that's a good thing or a bad thing but as long as I look good I'm fine. 8)
 
Im 19, but people always tell me that I look either 14 or 15. I'm hoping thats a good thing! :P
 
i look older. Many people say i look 18-19 :P :P
one day i was sitting on the driver seat of my car/parent's car and was putting the key in the key hole. Few people were standing behind the car and one said that " lets go from here she is going to drive the car" lol

I'm 19 and look, usually, 13 or so to everyone else. Someone thought I was 22 once...I was delighted, haha. Although it pisses me off when people tell me I look 13 (I really hate that age lol), looking young will be handy when I'm older. That's a big plus. Can't wait to make fun of the old people. :3c

syd you look like 11 not 13 (;

um i'm 17 in 19 days but people say i look older which i don't think is true but there ya go.
 
I look surprisingly younger. That's why I usually leave my beard for a few days before shaving it, to actually look closer to my real age.

I look 29. JK, I mostly look my age, the only thing that might throw you off is that I'm a bit shorter than the average 12 year old. I'd rather be taller.
 
I look so much younger than I am. ]:

I'll be 21 in a month, and I look right about 15... maybe 16. I can grow out facial hair and look around maaaaybe 18, but the point is I just look like a child. It really drives me nuts at work when I get treated as such for how I look too. Just because I look 16 doesn't mean I don't know what I'm talking about when I talk to you about medications. ;; Old people don't want to listen to you if they think you're a kid, after all.

But like it's been said before, perhaps this curse will be a gift when I'm 40 and look 20-something. :D
 
I'll be 23 in December, but people say I look 16-17. They'll ask how old I am and they're shocked when I tell them and don't believe it. My mom is Asian so that doesn't help when it comes to height. I'm 5'10 and most of my friends are taller, so when I'm with them I'm the shortest thus look the youngest.
In my case looking younger isn't good. I just wish I was a little taller, that would likely fix my prob.
