Does anyone on WP look young for their age?

Yes, I look young for my age that when i was 15 buying a 12 year old game, the store manager literally stopped me and asked for id and i told them my real age and they still rejected it Laughing

Even today i still look young that people would find it hard to believe im 18.
Depending on my style, i sometimes look like im 21, WOW! thats a huge age gap ! Shocked

All the time... I'm 149 years old and people always say I look young for my age. My doctor even complimented me on my health saying I'd got the body of an 120 year old. Wink

A gap of 3-5 years isn't huge. I still can't buy alcohol or x-rated movies without showing ID and even then the clerks eye me. And just last year a neighbour asked me if I was still in junior high or if I was in high school now.
At age 26 I had a hard task convincing some teenagers that I was above 18, and they looked shocked that I was over 20.

That's a huge gap!

I have been said that I look somewhere around 17 years younger by people I met face to face, and mistery shoppers that described my age. People normally do think I look a little younger than I am. I don't smoke, and feel that young though.

Contrary to the stereotype, I look about 5-6 years older. I am 29, but look 35.

On the bright side, people won't have to ask you for ID Laughing

When I was in secondary school, I was told I looked 11 or 12. More recently though, I don't get that anymore. It's great not to get ID'd.

I don't understand why the poll is worded that way.

The thread question is "does anyone on WP look young for their age?"

The poll asks, "what would you rather see yourself as, a boy/girl or an adult?"

How you look and how you want to look are two separate things altogether.

People say I look like I'm in my early 20s, but I'm 31. I prefer to look like an adult.

I might look like 59 and I sometimes get senior discounts without even asking, but I actually see myself (or maybe I should say I feel) much closer to 9.

I look like I'm 25 and I'm almost 35. I also prefer to be seen as a drummer boy, as I have gender issues. I wouldn't get the operation, though.

i'm 19.
i've never been told i looked younger than i am though Laughing
i've been told i look as old as 25. youngest anyone's ever guessed was when i was 18 and they guessed 18.

maybe it's because i'm so tall and can actually grow a beard & mustache and have a really deep voice. but then again casino security thought i'd looked 24 after i'd shaved. so idk shrug Laughing
