    I'm 31 and I get 23-25 a lot. I don't think I've ever met a person that thought I was older than my 29 year old brother before.

    Same here! My brother is 28 but people always think he's the older one when we're together, despite him being 3 years younger than me.

    I don't know. I think I look my age. If I had a bag over my head, people would probably think I was 25 based on my body. I don't have many wrinkles, but since I don't color my hair and I started going gray in my 20's, people probably think I'm pretty old. But they probably think I'm in great shape for my old age, so that's ok. To me, the number isn't really as important as the condition of the mind and body. :drinker:

    I'm 18, almost 19, and since I'm at university, people know I must be 18. But my senior year of high school, nearly everyone thought I was a freshman. I look young for my age.

    I'm 65 but people tell me I look 45. It is always fun to tell people how old I am and see the smile freeze on their faces in shock. Then they get this sort of vague look as they seem to contemplate, "Is this woman deliberately INFLATING her age?? Who does that!!? She must be looking to sell me some supplement or something." LOL.

    I have always looked younger than I am but I think it helps that I have always attempted to be pretty well-nourished since I became a young adult. I went for a period of eating too little for a while, but since I got that sorted out, my health has been returning, (along with looking even younger for my age, it seems).

    I'm 26 and am often assumed to be under 18. I get IDed a lot (legal age is 18) and get a ton of irritating comments at work (I bartend.) I have long hair, am fairly short, and dress casually though, so it's not all that surprising.

    I've had a switch lately, When I was younger people thought I was much older than I was, for instance, being barely 12, people thought I was going on 20, in highschool people thought i was late 20's early 30's. But now I'm 20, I keep getting told shouldn't I be in school? (high school) and if I walk too early in the morning, I'm constantly asked by students and teachers if I need a lift to school. :l

    Too young to have an 18 year old. Usually late 20's I think.

    See.. we are the same age and I wouldn't have guessed that at all. I usually get guessed about the same as you. mid to late 20's.

    I'm 30, but I keep getting asked for my ID over here whenever I want to buy wine or beer, so I suppose people think I'm younger than 18. The worst guess was a few years when I was asked for my ID to buy a video game that was labelled 12+.
