I don't mind telling others my real age. As I am already married and have a child. I don't have any reasons to hide my real age:) But I will feel a little unfair if others don't tell me the real age after I telling them mine. I love China

that would truly be unfair specially if you are telling the truth while they dont. whats with telling the right age, right?! its not really a big deal. whats important atleast thats also a new way for both of you and your friend know each other well. thanks friend youless.

I don't see why I should lie about my age. When somebody asks, then I'd tell the truth. I don't think there's something wrong with admitting one's real age. Unless you're not acting like your own age hehe..

I'm a guy so i guess it really don't matter to me if i tell my age. I do them them my real age every time i am asked about it. I guess people just want know our age so that they know how to handle a conversation with us. There's really nothing to worry about when you're quite confident about yourself. I don't think it's rude because i don't think there's any form of malice in asking someone's age.

I never tell my true age to nay one when some one ask me on this .. I jsu lie or divery the question to some thing else. I don;t like to reviel my actual age to any body. I think by revieling our age we our self create upper and lower level with other person. Actually this is my thought but I don't recommand this thing to any body. It's good to always say correct age to any one (friends) but beware from starngers.

Guess I don't have a choice other than telling them my real age and they still don't believe it and give me the looks like I am lying to them. Because I look older than I actually am. :-( I know that's very sad and i have heard this since I was 13-14, they won't believe me. Silly PEOPLE! *frustrated*
