Im 16, and people think I am 18 which is bad because I have two friends who are 15, and 13 and people ask if I am their older brother, or guardian at the moment.
also I act about 12, so people probably can tell without having it brought to their attention that I am AS

It depends on what I am doing. I like it when adults look at me like I'm crazy when I tell them my age. And the fact that I can drive and have a car is even more fun. I get wierd looks. ;-)

On the plus side, I can trick 15-16 year olds into thinking I'm their age and get dates with them... and even more, without getting reported. :wink:

No, when I was younger, I always looked my age or older.


Adults have always been more interesting for me to talk to as well.

I've always looked years younger than I actually am.

I'm 17, but I can easily pass off as 14/15.

I'm seventeen, but I've had people mistake me for being both twelve and twenty-one. So I suppose I can look both younger, older, and my own age.

I'm 14, but most people think I am an 11 or 12 year old, because I'm only 5 foot tall and I have a baby face. Maybe when I'm in my 60s it'll come in useful, but right now it's just annoying.

I'm 18, and a week ago I was mistaken for someone going into their sophmore year of high school (so about 15 years old). Also, whenever I go see a movie or buy an M rated game, I'm asked for ID :?

It wasn't very long ago when restraunts would give me kid's menus with crayons either... Though I didn't mind that as much :wink:

I might have most of you beat down!! ^^;;

It might sound completely unbelievable, but I'm 26, and I'll be 27 next month.
But I look like I'm 16 or 17.. I've even been mistaken for 15.
I've had people ask me what year I'm in at school, and even asked why I wasn't in school on a school day! XD

I am typically not 26 years old though.. I'm actually more around 14, perhaps 15. I've only just been around for 26 years.
So.. I dunno if you can picture me as an adult and be right about it.. ^^;;
And I feel most comfortable with friends who are 14-16.. lucky for me, with this young age thing I have on the inside, I also look very young on the outside, so no one really notices that I'm 26 in the first place.. ^^;;

Actually it can be really fun!! XD

I am 18, but people think I am about 14, 15, not more. Mostly it's good, I get more stuff for free ('cause they mistake me for a child), adults and younger children better understand me, but it's bad when I am in the group of peers and when I try to be more dependent.
I am only about 5 foot tall, it's about 160 cm, and have always looked about 5 to more years younger. Some give me 12 years either. Oh, God! :P

Like.. if I looked maybe 12? XD

I'm 14 and a freshman, but I look a lot older. I look like a junior. I'm pretty tall compared to most kids my age (6 foot), my voice is very deep for a 14 year old, and I just look older then most kids.

im still in middle school, but ill be a freshman next year, and people who dont go to my school ask me where i go to high school. i, um, suppose you could say i am curvy, and i'm 5'4, so im taller than alot of my peers.
and adults usually say that my attitude usually brings off a high maturity level for my age.

the oldest ive been considered is 17.
