Do you look younger or older than your age?

When I was growing up I was almost always mistaken for looking older than I was. It's not that I tried to look older, I just had that look about me. But now that I am older some people have mistaken me for looking younger. Which I don't mind one bit. It sure is better than being mistaken for looking older, that's for sure!

Hi janelacson. When people ask my age, I always tell them the truth. I don't lie about my age, for two reasons. 1. It is a sin to lie. 2. Because I look younger than my age. And I am pleased to see people's reaction every time I tell them that I am already 50! Most of them think I am joking and I like that kind of reaction. I guess, it is because of my positive outlook in life. I also smile and laugh out loud often.

I consistently get pegged as 10-12 years younger than I am. I thank the people nicely and then tell them I am 40. Some go as far as to call me a liar. People are amazed that I have a 21 year old stepson. When I was dating my husband, people assumed the kid was my little brother because he looked like me: blue eyes, blond hair and freckles.

...fortunately, people always commented that i look younger than my age, may be because I always smile and I tend to be with young people and I love kids ...

I'm 46 and I look 36. I love hearing that! It makes my day every time!

..because of the many hard experiences I had, I look older than my age..
