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!?

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

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

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

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.

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.

Will be 23 in about 4 weeks.

Nah you look older than that

Only kidding, I put you at 39

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.

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 *******....
