I'm not too sure. I can't read people's age by their face very well, and nobody has even brought up a topic about my age.

Exactly and Precisely 13 years, six months, 9 days, 10 hours, 32 minutes and 15 seconds.
How close am I?

I turned 32 this May. This April (around Easter) Mum sent me out to buy her a bottle of wine. The guy behibnd the counter refused to serve me because I had no proof on me that I was over 18.

That's an extreme example of the sort of reactinsd I get from people, but when I ask poeople to guess my age, they usually put me between 22 and 30.

Then again, I don't always *act* my age, so maybe that;s got something to do with it...*grin*

I can easily pass for 16-18 even though I'm 23, most people are quite suprised to find out my real age, I find myself dressing slightly 'older' to compensate, because if I wear jeans and t shirt especially after just shaving and having a haircut I will look much younger. If I dress up a bit, wear a proper shirt and all that , only shave every couple of days it's not so bad, being shortish (5'6) doesn't help though.
