    I'm 24 but I've had crossing guards assume I needed help crossing the street, so they must think I'm like 12? -_-
    Other than those instances, I usually get 18-20

    I'll help you across the street. :devil:

    I ALWAYS get "What are you-19/ 20 ?" Since I'm 26 I guess that will be helpful when I am like 60 and people think I'm 54 :laugh:

    (Although its kind of annoying..try interviewing for a job when you look like you are barely out of high school :laugh: )

    I'm 42. I am often told I look younger but lately I don't know that it bothers me looking my age. I am happy with my looks either way.

    People usually peg me for my age which is 34, my fiance however is 50 and people always assume he is at least 10 years younger. Working out and living healthy pays off!

    I'm 28, but I have been told by many that I look the same age as my fellow interns, and they are all 20-22... Shocked faces abound when my age comes up here. I feel like I look about 25-28.

    My boyfriend is 44 and constantly gets told that he looks my age. I hope that eventually he starts to show age, because I would hate to turn 29 and look older than him... :laugh:

    Not trying to bust any bubbles here but to those who are appalled at getting carded for alcohol purchases, I spent years in retail sales & took many TABC courses to be certified; here's the rule - IF THEY LOOK 30 OR YOUNGER, ASK FOR ID.

    So if you're 26 & mad at getting carded, it's not cuz they think you look younger than 21, it's cuz you look younger than 30.
    Sorry guys...don't hate me, it's the law.

    I am 37, however most people think I am in my late 20's. I blame it on having oily skin on my face, which I hate, but has helped to keep wrinkles and lines away.

    uhhh this is the story of my life, in job interviews I always get asked my age to find out if I would be on "adult wages", I'm 25 dammit!

    Other people say, wow how can you have so many tattoos when your only 19? I'm just like wtf!

    Generally I get 19-21

    It really depends on who I'm talking to and the situation...
    I'm 38 and sometimes people hit it dead on and other times they thing I'm 25.
