    I'm 49 and a Grammy to twin 4 year old boys. When people hear them call me Grammy they often comment that I don't look old enough to have a 30 year old daughter much less grand children! I feel blessed!

    I'm 24, but most of the time people think I'm closer to 18-20.

    People always say I look younger.

    Unless I have been drinking - i age 5 years for every drink I take. I guess being more relaxed makes my face all droopy and saggy.

    People have always thought I looked younger, and still do. I'm a mom and people always say they can't possibly be my kids. Then they say, "babies having babies". Sometimes people can be unkind because they think I am such a young mother. I have learned to tell them I am 34 and they say that they did think I was a lot younger than that. Then they ask me what my secret is or they say "you are so healthy" or they say "you have good genes". At least now people know I am an adult. When I was in my 20's people thought I was a teenager all the time. That was weird for me. It wasn't until I was 30 that people started to know I was an adult. But, of course now I am happy that people think I look younger. It brightens my day if I am feeling tired running around with my children. And I'm sure someday when I get older that may not happen anymore. It always surprises me how young people think I am. I guess I feel older than I look.

    yup i agree..ppl nowadays def. look younger. You know 40 is the new 30, 30 is the new 20 etc ;) I get told i look between 18-20. I am 28.

    I believe it, your profile pic is adorable! I never would have guessed 28 from your picture.

    THANK YOU!! i guess partly is also my genes. My mom looks way younger than her age.

    A bit younger but sometimes I think that's more because of how I behave, rather than my looks :blushing:

    I'm 28 yet people tend to think I'm in my mid 30's....once me and my friends were out and I was asked if I was the mom. Sometimes I think its because I'm heavy. Idk lol

    All my life people thought I was older than my biological age. I still get people telling me, "wow, you are NOT 22!" I think maturity has a lot to do with it when it comes to people thinking I'm older than I really am. I don't talk or act or even dress like a lot of 22 year olds that I know. I get the "old soul" comment quite a bit....

    I usually get early 30-31 - I'm 38.

    It's my Mom that gets the jaws dropped when she says she is 55 (just turned) and she has a 38 and a 36 year old. She looks too young for us old fogies as kids! lmao!!

    I am 30 years old -- people routinely think I am in my teens. I've had people comment that it must be hard to have a baby and be so young (I had my daughter when I was 27 -- I was also very much married) or ask me if I plan to go to college (I graduated from college in '04 and own a business now).

    I guess I am glad not look like I am in my 50's at this point, but I can't help but be annoyed sometimes.

    People have told me I look younger - especially since I lost weight. They are shocked that I am old enough to have a 30 year old daughter. :smile:

    I always get told I look about 24. I just turned 28.

    When I was 24 I walked into a Jamba Juice and the kid working at the counter asked if I went to the local high school and asked if I knew a certain friend of his since I looked familiar. I was like...ummm...I graduated 6 years ago from a different school!

    Most people are pretty right on with my age, I'm 26. Sometimes I get asked if I'm 20-21. I'll take it!
