Do you look younger or older for your age?

I'm 21, but I look like I'm 13 or 14, which sometimes gives me trouble for when I want to buy or see R-rated movies.

Always older than my age, starting age 8. Then, gradually, younger in more and more areas. It started around college age when people my age were actually making serious decisions about marriage and such, and it seemed so "grown up" and beyond my level of development. I think I've been stuck at age 19 for a few years.

I've often been told that I look (and behave) younger than my biological age. Somewhere around the 15 - 16 year old range.

i'm 56 and I look 56.

I'm 29 and peeps still think I'm 15.

I am 42 aad people think I am 32

I'm almost 31, but I am often confused for someone much younger. I'd say most people would lump me into the 18-21 category. If I were to buy cigarettes or alcohol I would very SURELY get carded. So it goes.

Yes. I'm 22 (turn 23 this year) and I look like I'm 18 or so.

26 but people say I look 18

Alas, I look my age.

Im 29 but I feel a lot younger, and I think people think I am younger as well. I often get younger girls 16+ glancing my way

Agreed. I'm 30 and most people think I'm a college kid or even a teenager.

I turn 39 this year.. but until I told my coworkers how old I was they thought I was in my mid 20's. I am on the left in this pic.

I'm 45 and I look maybe 35 perhaps younger, I think the main thing however is that I don't feel like my age, I feel most comfortable with people who are in their 20s or so, not that I am really comfortable around anyone.

I'm 33 and still get carded all the time for stuff with an 18 or 20 age limit. When asked, people tend to say they thought I was in my mid-20s or so.

On the other hand, my online presence has (usually...) given people the impression of a much higher age. At 16 I was taken for mid-20s online. More recently I was once thought to be in my 50s. That was apparently a BIG surprise when I mentioned my actual age, I think 27 at the time. (I hadn't kept it secret, it just never came up until we'd known each other for a while.)

I'm 38 and people think I'm 17.
