Do I seem my age?

Post Reply New Topic

Do you look at the age under the person's avatar? Do you ever get your age mistaken? Do I seem to be my age?

The age that one seems to be is subjective. In some contexts, one can appear to be very juvenile, while, in other contexts, they appear to be very mature.
Because of my short stature and round features, I am often presumed to be much younger than I actually am...until I begin to speak. My extensive vocabulary leads others to believe that I am a bit older than I am. I am currently seventeen years old; within this year, people have guessed that I am between the ages of twelve to twenty-two.

Age is irrelevant to me, so I tend to ignore the age under a person's avatar.

It does not surprise me that you are fifteen. Then again, teenagers are extremely varied creatures.

I can't tell your age by what you write, I think it's probably impossible. Unless you were from a long time in the past, and used odd words like thy and agin.

People treat me like a teenager (because I am one ) but I don't feel like a teenager. Hence the signature.

I think you seem a little bit older than you actually are because of your mature statements and vocabulary

It's really impossible to tell how old someone is over the internet without seeing a picture or anything. I don't think there's anything you can do to make yourself seem a certain age.

I personally get mistaken for been older then my actual age.
I'm not sure why this is though I'm quite often mistaken for someone who is 18-20 on forums similar to this. I'm actually only 15; still quite a few years from 20!
