Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Today alone I have been accused of being 16 or even younger... Younger when I got asked if I was 16 for a lottery ticket!?!?!?!?!? Thankfully they didnt ID me, but seriously, im 23 (not so far off of 24) and I get asked if im 16, it makes me feel pretty bad tbh.

I think it has the added down side with the ladies. I tend to attract 15/16 year olds to me... fortunately I dont meet so many of them so thats not so bad but first impressions count for a lot so I hear and it seems to me that ladies that think im 16 or worse younger, wont be interested... I can tell from my experience this is certainly a factor in my lack of pulling ability. :(

I work in a college in IT, I wonder how many of the students think im younger than them!? :confused:

Sigh... Just thought id share this with the mighty Org, see what people think.

grow a bit of facial hair?

i think i look quite young too. Its my slim build. look even younger when im clean shaven


my cheeky smile dont help

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

I get ID'd alllllllllll the time! Total pain in the bum.

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Better looking young for your age. Wait til you are over thirty and people think your younger.....its great :-)

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

I stopped paying half on the bus when I hit 21, and that was voluntary.
I was in Florida years ago when I was 34, thirty four, and I got asked for ID when ordering a couple of beers. I didn't have any on me, why would I at 34yr old, and so ended up having a nice refreshing Sprite.
Mind you, I think it is creeping up on me now at 45......


BTW, I am about 27yr old in the avatar picture with the GPMG.

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

How old are you if you dont mind me asking :p

Yea, I guess it is good when I get to that stage but at this stage it seems to be a little bit of a struggle. sigh. :(

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Will be 23 in about 4 weeks.

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Nah you look older than that:smt005

Only kidding, I put you at 39:thumleft:

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Just how it goes. Back in the day a girl I was seeing was 29 and her friend was 19, and they BOTH got ID'd to get into a pub where we were regulars by an overzealous new bouncer!

Mrs Metal still gets it sometimes, she complains but I tell her to enjoy it while it lasts.

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Get some stubble. I look alot younger without it!

But your complaining?!? Your young, single (?) and look about the age of some 16-18yr old college girls. Get in there i'd say. True they will generally be shallow relationships that wont last but hey yer only young once and at 24 you dont want to settle down lol.

Lucky *******....

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Maybe it's because they don't think you're fully grown yet :D

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

I get mistaken for being about 30 or so. I like it 'cos I'm nearly 40!

Then again, I did think Thegreek was someone's son when I first met him and expected him to be a pillion.

Then his chain snapped and I realised that only an adult would know such language!

Pete ;)

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

This, this, a thousand times this!

There's only a limited time in which to have lots of sex with lots of young uninhibited hotties (unless you're rich or Hugh Hefner - and you ain't), don't end up in a steady relationship or otherwise let it pass you by too soon or your knob will hate you!

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Wish i could get ID'd, :(,

I got ID'd in florida aged 29, quite pleased i was :D.
Actually that was the last time somebody thought i was under 21 :(
40 this year :(

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Erm yea like me lol! I'm feeling sad now :(.

I forget to mention you have the advantage of earning money so you can impress the ladies with your wealth too! Win win!

Again yer a lucky sod, you dont go down rivvy do ya lol!

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

I have go stubble, practically a beard atm... tsh. Its funny actually, the guy I work with is 21 and he is always told he looks 35! :smt037 But then he has a lovely girl friend so its not that big a deal I guess :rolleyes:

Ha ha, I do work in a college, problem is that im obviously not allowed to touch them, or really even be friends, incase I lead them astray... Ill be it would be the other way around tbh. Tis a bit depressing seeing it all day. :(

Indeed, lol the height cant help can it. :rolleyes:

Ha ha, cheers Pete. How to make me feel better huh :thumleft:

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Why cant you date the students?

Yer not a lecturer or anything you just work in IT!! M8 of mine in college (blackburn) dated the IT guy, infact their still together!

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

I got ID'ed in the pub tonight after work.

Result :)


I think the barman was about 10 years younger than me :D

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Rob, your just showing off ;)

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Got told not, apparently its illegal, safeguarding or something like that. So I guess the only thing that is even remotely allowed is waiting till they leave, but even then I guess its a little dodgy :rolleyes: heh, just my luck aye.

Ha ha, its interesting when they see my ID and say "bloody hell your older than me" like its a massive shock. :rolleyes:

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Nope.

In a suit I really do look about 15 and on my way home from court!

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Date their friends maybe?! Lol you poor *******.

I remember dating a 16yr old from college man she was good :P (true i was 18!)

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

I think i need a new suit then lol

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

It could be worse, atleast it's not your mug that's the problem I got ID'd for booze in morrisons a while ago and the bird behind the til' couldn't stop laughing and said I looked like a miserable ****...I am one though :scratch:

I'd definitely stay away from the pupils, askin for trouble.

I don't think it's as big a deal as you think.

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

If you look younger you're likely to live longer too so don't be in a rush to 'grow older'. :)

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Now that's just cruel! :lol:

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

I think i look younger than i am (18) i always get ID'd apart from once when i was 17 and i err bought something that i needed to be 18 to buy, 24 of these things to be percise but ive always been ID'd after that :(

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

:smt081

Gr33k I'd be more worried about the girls leading you astray than tother way about.

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

I probs shouldn't comment in this thread Nick, then again I did pick on your height not your age...

Anyway, what does it matter? Yeah it's an annoyance but at the end of the day once a girl bothers to get to know you I'm sure she'll be old enough to realise you're older.....



If all else fails....take your shirt off, you were in the RAF weren't you? :-P

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

But you've got more impressive ID than most of the rest of us.

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

The tattoo of his boyfriends name wont help matters at all :smt005

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

I'm 23, but feel about 18 so I've got no beef when I get asked for ID.

You'll be surprised how going into hamleys at the age of 22 and busting out a few guitar hero songs on expert woo's this sort of age range. I had to say 'no' to a few teenagers that day, all thanks to guitar hero abilities, lol.

If only a bit younger and single. Make the most of it mate.

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Well that's me done for - everyone adds 10 years (at least) to me just coz I'm a bit thin on top :(

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

You say that but I'm 26 on Wednesday and struggle to grow anything convincing.

I always get told I look young I literally can not go anywhere without getting asked for id.

The way I look at it is, when I'm 30+ I'll still look like I'm in my 20's

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

I'm the same, I still feel 18, to be honest though i never really consider age, when I'm out with people from here some of them are 18, some of them are 50+ everyone just feels the same age despite the massive age gaps.

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

No need to thank me.

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Just you beware - you are getting a slap for that. Oh yes, and I will not forget!

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

I'm 47 and thankfully don't look that old, You'll learn to appreciate looking younger when you get to my age

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

When I was in my mid 30's, people still thought that I was around 21. It was very useful for pulling the 21 year olds, as I still looked young, but had job, car, bikes and a flat, and was a bit more mature (well, sort of) than blokes their age. And that is why I now have a stunning wife who is 13 years younger than me.

Re: Looking young... Doing my head in!
 

Works for me :D

Skip - aged 32 :cool:
