    People usually think 16-19, depending on if I am wearing makeup. I always hate when patients say, "No...I asked to speak with the RN, not the tech...you're too young to be my nurse." Grrr.

    I think it varies. I'm 36. Sometimes people think I am 18, and card me. Other times people think I am under 22 and college aged. And sometimes people think I am 25. I don't think I look as young as people think I am, but I do appreciate it.

    12-14. Someone asked if I was glad school was out for awhile and I had no idea what they were talking about. So sad.

    No Idea. In my early thirties they used to thing I was in my twenties, but I believe I deteriorated quite a bit over the last couple of years.

    I think the older I get, the more I look closer to my age but I used to get mid 20's a lot and I'm going to be 37 soon.
  • Guess how old I am, no cheating.

    I used to look a lot younger than I am...but having a round face certainly helps keep wrinkles away. As I am losing weight, I am noticing laugh lines and such. *sigh* I guess if that is the worst side-effect of weight loss, I will take it. (my profile pic is outdated...I was 50 pounds heavier then)

    I look about 27-29, I guess (I'll be 37 in June). I wear sunblock and stay out of the sun most of the time, and I moisturize daily.

    I also don't drink or smoke.

    Yep, I've been guessed constantly at 23 or 24. Some pretty hilarious stories attached to that too. lol. When I was younger, I absolutely hated it. At 25, I was told by the doorman of a bar "You are over 18, and my dear, I am the Queen of England. Cya." I stopped getting carded by 28, but I still get mistaken for the same number of years younger than I am. The older I get, the more I appreciate that fact now. :D

    I guess I have a baby-face. Coupled with the fact that I'm super short, people usually think I'm 18-20.

    I'm actually 25. I've had a grocery store clerk or two express amazement when I show them my ID.

    Usually people guess 22-25. I'm 28.

    It depends on the day. lol But I've gotten 27 recently. When I'm tired, I look more my age. :wink:

    People always think I'm older than I look. I've heard anywhere between 22-30. I'm 22, and the only time I get carded is when I go out with my friends (probably because my best friend looks 16).

    It's kind of uncomfortable when people think I'm my dad's wife. This happens a lot when we go out to dinner together. When people come to the house to fix things/whatever, they ask if my husband's home.

    Though it is kind of funny when I go out with my sister (she's 26), and she gets carded, and I don't.

    You look 16

    You look 20.
  • My short stature is what I think throws people off. I am a mere 5'1. When I am with my oldest kid who is 9 & 4'8 people give me the weirdest looks!!!!!! hahaha A lot of people ask me if I am my kids "nanny," lmao.

    I'm always getting "there's no way you're 49!" more like 32, to maybe 40.

    Yep, people think I'm lying. I'll be 50, in January...not even a laughter line in sight.
