I stumbled upon an old black and white picture of my grandfather (my dads father) yesterday when he was aged 11 in school uniform. One thing that struck me about the pic is that he definitely looked similar/had a likeness to me when I was around that age. Although in later pictures when he was the age I am now (24) he did not look like me.


Do you think that possibly I might look more like my grandpa as I age given that we did look similar in appearance when were both 11 years old.

Sadly my grandfather died in 1991.

It's possible,my bio-mom very closely resembles her grand-mother.

When I was like 14, I noticed how much me in my old photo at 7, resembled my gran in the photo, where she was already in her 70's. I mean - similar facial features. But still, I resemble my father a lot much more than my relatives on my mom's family side.

Do you think I might end up looking really similar to my granddad when I am older?

There's a high probability, so if your grandpa isn't an attractive old man, then start to get worried.

Or work out hard everyday?

If you're a shrek, you'd better be a shrek of steel, you know.
