    I'm 39, most people seem to think I'm in my late 20's or early 30's.

    I've been told 25-30 on occassion...but most often I'm told, "You're a Baby"...which still sounds weird to me..appreciated nonetheless

    I'm 22 and I usually get the older card...
    more so because of how I carry myself and act more mature.
    Not by my looks.

    It depends. With makeup, people think I'm mid-20s but I'm 19, 20 next month. Without my face done up, well, I'm in college as a 'mature' student and get mistaken for one of the 16 year olds.
  • I am 41 and I def have people shocked by that... Makes me feel great !! :drinker:

    I am not sure. I have gotten confused with young college students before but I am almost 35. When I was overweight I actually got asked if I had grandchildren UGH.

    I'm 33 and when I say that people always look shocked. Then I ask... and I've gotten everywhere from 25-30.

    It's nice. Because when I was fat, I looked my age.

    People think I'm 12, but only because they accuse me of being immature.

    I disagree with them... Those big ol' doodoo heads.

    I'm 49 years old, but people always think I'm about 10 years younger than I am. I'm happy about that :) Now if they could see me as being 50 pounds lighter than I actually am- LOL

    I am 22 and most people tell me I look near or at my age. However, I've had a few people tell me that I look high school age! This can be problematic for me, because I'm a teacher and I have been confused for a student on a few awkward occasions! Haha

    One time when I was going into a casino, the guy said "no children under 18" I blank stared, handed him my ID (I was 21 at the time) and he said "Wow I thought you were 15..." and I asked "Sorry but does my chest like not stand out to you?.." that's when he laughed and said, "Good point." god...so embarrassing ...

    If only that were a good judge - when I was 12 I already had a big chest and I was skinny - people use to offer me alcohol thinking I was older :P

    But myself I am 32 and my younger friends are always surprised because they put me at 23-25 :P

    People say I'm early 20s, and I've gotten 25. I just turned 27 last month. So, this is a huge compliment for me! I know 27 isn't particularly old but I'd love to still be mistaken for being in my early 20s :)

    I'm 35. I have had as low as 16 up to about 25 but most of the time its early 20's. I'm hoping that it remains that way for a long time.

    No clue. Probably think I am around my age. Can't pass for younger anymore.

    When my hair is cut really short, maybe mid to late thirties, otherwise the grey gives it away.

    I'm 35, people usually think I am in my early 20's. The other day someone said they thought I was 16.
  • People typically think I'm 18 or 19, some even think I'm still in high school. Bleh. I'm only 23, almost 24, but I don't want people to think I'm 18 anymore.
