I'm 52 and I look mid to late 30's. I inherited my mother's skin who didn't get wrinkled until she was in her 60's.

I'm 19 but I'm really short, so people think I'm in middle school or something. So it's great when older women looking for boy toys approach me. I enjoy that aspect a whole lot. Just wondering by the way, why is this in a Haven thread? Are you upset that you look younger than you are? I though that was, like, the ultimate for girls.

I'm 35 but look about 25. It makes me feel like a vampire. muhaha. I like it when someone younger than me who thought they were older learns my age and realizes they shouldn't call me sweetie anymore.

I turn 25 this summer. If I was clean shaven, I'd probably look like I'd be turning 20.

I do tend to get thought of as younger than I am.

The general consensus seems to be that I look about 7 years younger than I actually am, which is really annoying. I was told once that I had the eyes of someone 10 years older, though, which is a little more inline with how old I feel on the inside.

I wonder how much of it comes from physical appearance, and how much is unconsciously judged based on body language, speech, etc. Maybe it's unfathomable that someone my age could still seem so awkward and uncomfortable in his own skin; I don't know.
