Do you look your age?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker
I'm 23. My brother (who's 19) introduced me to one of his friends. On her way out she asked how old his younger sister was. Apparently she thought I was 12.

Although my favorite is still the time the restaurant host looked right at me and said "Okay, I know you're a big girl, but do you want a kid's menu?" I just smiled and said "I'm almost 21." My brothers (who were 12 and 16 at the time) were still laughing five minutes later.

I also recently went in to apply for a library card and the librarian handed the form to my dad and said "Here, you need to take this, fill it out, and sign it for her."

I am short and petite, and I have a squeaky voice.
So people think I am younger and therefore treat me like a kid.


Stupid tall people.

I don't think I do, at least when my hair is freshly colored. Pigpo1 has just convinced me to lose weight.

no. Today the gas station attendant asked if I was old enough to buy cigarettes. I'm 24. I showed him my id and said, imagine how awesome it will be when I'm like 35. He looked amazed and was like, yeah, no kidding!!

On occasion people say they take me for up to a decade younger, and seem sincerely surprised. Or they could be good flatterers. It's still nice to hear; if there were truth to it I'd say it is due to daily antioxidant vitamins over many, many years [A,C, and E; Se is a mineral but also antioxidant].

People always tell me I look younger, some have even said by about 10 yrs. I'm 37 and hopefully as I get older I'll continue to age well.
