I Look Younger Than I Am

I Look Like I'm In My Late 20's, Not Early 40's

By: Txsmom

Written on February 11th, 2012

I guess I look young for my age, and it must be due to my Asian genes. I get it all the time-people shocked at how young I look. It is a little bothersome because people don't tend to respect me much until they get to know me. I am a hard worker and I am dedicated and honest. If I had my choice, I would rather look young than old. I am sure one day it will catch up with me but for now, I will enjoy it. I tend to attract much younger guys. Not sure yet if that's a good or bad thing! :)

If your profile pic is a current pic of you, I agree. (It is a good thing)

Looking younger than you are is always good and I think that it is a good ego boost to be found attractive by younger people.

Certainly looking good! I've always suspected you Asians of having a bit of a special advantage in the looking-young stakes. I wonder if "all other things being equal" you would also live longer?
And as for attracting younger men - it probably rather depends what you want to attract them for.

I'm 28 and people say I look 20. I'm pale Irish with freckles...For the record I personally think a lot of slightly older ladies take care of themselves more than young 20s do so therefore look better. Enjoy your young looks! I intend to for as long as poss!

Sometimes not taken too serious because of my young looks. Can be anoying indeed. Especially when people are way older and don't even share half of my life experiences

  I completely agree...I hate not being taken seriously because you have to work extra hard to prove it to them!

  flipside is a gift of life is the child inside really didn't die... I will be forever young... little children know this secret because they see it in my eyes... I see the same eyes in seventy year olds sometimes... so not only a curse, but as with many things in life a curse and a blessing.

  There again I agree. You are only as young or old as you feel. I have kept that youth about me as I feel that it makes me a happier, more fun person. I couldn't see being any other way and will probably be this way for the rest of my life!

  It probably does make you happier and more fun to be around. And you look very pretty doing so.

Believe me....I aint patronizing you or something....but looking at the pic....I thought you would have your page display aged between 26 - 30.

I can understand and feel the part where you dont get respect due to your young face...since I am 26....but people tend to think that i might be in college....they are clinging to the thinking that since he has "babyface" and not the usual face....he might be "baby" too.... I tend to play along it with a while and then surprise them when they least expect me too....

However we got an advantage too....which allows us to attract opposite sex which are much younger....So I feel blessed enough to have such an "babyface"

Personally I think we are as young as we feel...So from your beautiful picure I'd say you feel young, love quality conversations and take good care of yourself. Keep up the good work. We need more of you!

  Oh thank you! I try to be myself and hope that I make a difference to someone, even if it's a small gesture. You are certainly right, we are only as young or old as we feel!

My mom is in her early 60's, but if you were to meet her out on the street, you'd think that she was at least in her early 30's. I'm in my 30's, yet I still have people thinking that I'm in my early 20's. Judging by your photo, I'm hoping that your youthful looks carry on into your golden years.

Wow, you're lovely. My bet is you'll be beautiful at any age, simply because you're smart and decent.

I think that attracting people too you younger or same age or older just goes to say a lot about you.There is more to you than just pretty looks.Good for you.

based on your profile pic, I would have thought you were much younger. You look great, do you workout? or eat healthy? in addition to your good genes.

I look younger then my age and while I credit my genes, I also eat healthy (vegetarian) and work out regularly so I think that helps.

  I am not sure why I look so much younger. I try to eat healthy but I do love sweets! I try to exercise also but not as much as I should.
