People seem surprised when I say I'm going to be 30 next year, but not sure if it's that weird thing people do where they're trying to flatter you, or if I really do look younger than I am. Not that 29 is particularly old at all, and most people my age still look very 'young'.

My mother insists I look years younger than I am and, in high school, a lot of people thought I was a year or two below my actual grade.

Yes I did look young for my age y about 10 to 15 years and also mentally I seemed to think of myself as being younger then I am. I now look more like my age because I forgot to shave.

When I was in my early 20's I was reported for not being in school and I was reported to a school that I did not even attend when I was in school!

I think I might look about 50, even though I’ll be 61 in 4 days.

A Mountain Goat seems to be the perpetrator in this instance.

My mom is 68, but anyone we encounter believe that she is in her 40s.

My NT sister is 34 and I am 31. Many people believe we are adolescents.

Until this year, I always looked much younger than my actual age. When I was 35, I looked 25. When I was 45, I looked 30. When I was 50, I looked 40. Now age 52, a couple weeks ago I shared my age with someone, and he told me, "yeah, you look 52." That was the first time anyone ever told me I looked my age. I suppose it was just a matter of time :(
