Getting Mistaken For Older or Younger?

[KAMALARAMBO: BOOMSHAKALAKA!!!]

I was meeting with someone to talk about retirement plans and I’m 34 and hope to retire by 60. A 26 year period. However, the person flipped it and thought I was 26 and had 34 years to retire.

So that’s the good part.

The bad part is I have to make a lot of adjustments if I want to get anywhere close to that 60 number

I'm 32 and when I'm clean shaven people think I'm a decade younger or so

People think I look younger than my age all the time. It helps that I shave often. I remember early last year when I was going to school, as well as working at the college, I was approached by Marines who talk people into filling out stuff like a survey. I told them that I was too old to be joining. They asked and I told them that I was 33 (which I was at the time) and they told me that I looked younger than that.

I've been told I'm younger because I always go out with a hat on and a mask covers my mug. I've had people say I look like I'm in high school when I'm in my 30s.

32 and most people seem to think I'm about 25 or so. Even moreso when I'm clean shaven.

My wife is seven years older than me but most people think I am older than her.

Younger. I've looked years younger since I was a kid. Even today while I'm 33, I look 23. Same with my parents and brother so that's dope.

[Gus Richlen Was Wrong]

I sound like puberty quit halfway through. I look older than 30. I feel older than 30. I'm actually 30.

Yup. Exactly the same for me and my family. Even the age. Lol

[Oh Cry Me a Screwball]

Younger.

When I have no facial hair, I can easily pass for like 25.

I still get ID’d once in a while. That’s fun since I’m fast approaching 40.

when i was in Alaska i was outside a store waiting for some friends, as was a girl. she asked how old i was, and i told her the truth. 24. she was a bit shocked because she thought i looked like i was around 17 (she was asking because she was 16 and looking for someone around her age to "kill time with")

I’m 38, my wife was once asked if I was her son.

Seems like half a story....

I was taken for being 16 starting when I was 13, and have apparently appeared to age only one year in the more than twenty since. At 32, the sample ladies would gently tell me I had to be at least eighteen to have certain items. At 33, my coworkers at my temporary assignment freaked when I mentioned liking Jager because they were sure I was seventeen. I got chased down and had to produce ID upon entering the same casino I celebrated my 34th birthday just a couple weeks prior at (though, in this case, we think our visit coinciding with Spring Break just saw them being extra vigilant). Most recently, right before the lock downs kicked into gear here, I almost got kicked out of a public pool at my current age of 36, because it was time for Adult Swim and under eighteen had to leave.

I've looked like I'm in my mid 20s since I was 16. I'm 38 now. I run into people all the time who say I look exactly the same. In fact I'm currently wearing a sweater that I got in high school

[Raskovnik]

People have thought I was in my late 20s to early 30s since I was 20 or so.

[4real]

I’m 36 but have a babyface and am incapable of growing a beard. So I look like I’m in my early 20’s. It has its good and bad advantages.

Arn Anderson syndrome. In my 20s everyone thought I was 35 or so and now in my 40s people still think that.
