Sometimes I see pics of people that are MY age or younger, and I think...DO I LOOK THAT OLD??!! :noway: I deffinately don't think I do. I certainly don't ACT my age, but is this something you can't see on yourself?? People don't usually guess my age correctly, but are they just being polite??

Is it me or do others think this too??

    Im 18 and I feel like alot of people my age look older than me. I think itsbecause we are so used to seeing ourselves everyday since we were young that we have a certain perception of ourselves

    I'm only 26, and I nearly cried when one of my friends found a picture of me at age 20 and said..."This was when I first met you! You looked so young!"

    :sad:

    I think the same thing.. mostly when I see a friend of mine who is the same age but I think she looks older (we are mid 40's). I think I look younger than that, but have noticed that as the fat is going from my face there are more wrinkles appearing!
    Oh well, it's still better than being overweight :)
