franciscanheart Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 [quote name='Dust's Sister' date='Nov 9 2005, 11:40 PM']dang it, I thought I edited my profile!! all well yeah guys I am 23 years old. Here's the thing, these two photos were taken this year, the first one in August of this year, and the second one in July of this year.. so I am actually younger in the first pic.. lol I just want to say that I get mistaken for being 12-14 ALL THE TIME, I went to public places with my mom a lot this week and 4 times I was mistaken for being a 12 or 14 year old! I get so tired of it, but I guess I need to start putting make up on. lol.... make up sure does make a difference it seems like.

philothea Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Makeup, hair, and clothes all help people define your age. Once you get to be in your 30s everyone will envy you! I still had crossing guards helping me when I was 30... Now at least I look like I could be in college. I still get carded with great suspicion, and I'm 35.

I went to vegas twice this year and I was asked for my ID several times... one time this one guy asked for my ID.. and then he was like 15 feet from the security area (where this guy sat) and he had to get the gaurd that checked my ID to go over there just so HE can have proof that I was 21.... he said I was about the youngest looking 23 year old he ever seen. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anastasia13 Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I thought you looked younger in the first picture. I didn't guess what age you looked though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photosynthesis Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 are you short? I get told that I look younger all the time, but I think it's mostly because I'm only 5'2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totus Tuus Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 People have always thought I was older, and I never minded. But I guess it's different when they think you're younger than you are. However, there [i]are[/i] benefits to looking like you're twelve. I could barely get away with ordering a child's plate at a restaurant when I was twelve years old, much less eighteen, but you on the other hand might have that capability.

scardella Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 You look older than the sea and younger than a newborn babe. How's that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at that time I was running a design business, so I wore makeup, nice clothes, and had my hair professionally styled. Nowadays I dress like a lazy college student and everyone thinks I'm a kid. From the pictures I've seen of us who seem to be young-looking, I think there are some similarities. Any of you have the real rosy-cheeks (that annoyingly turn bright red with exertion )? FWIW, I'm 5'6", so it's not my height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zabbazooey Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I get mistaken for 12 all the time. The other month, I got handed a balloon and a kid's menu in a restaurant. And i DROVE there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tojo Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I'm almost 22, and when I'm clean-shaven people think I'm about 16 years old, but then I am a bit on the short side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
