Do You Look Older or Younger For Your Age? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 97/100. hexeduser22 (652)   ranked 2,047 out of 37,951 in life1 month ago

Nowadays anti aging creams are a hit in the market. They are somewhat expensive but still people are buying it. If it really works I really can't tell because I haven't had the chance to use one.

We all age and that's fact, there is no fountain of youth. If there is, it would have dried out by nowlol

Do you look older or younger than your age? Me, I consider my physical appearance as a gift from God. Naturally I look younger than my age because I tend to surprise people whenever they ask how old I am. It's flattering when people point it out 90% of the time but I also had some bad experiences, looking young.

It was during the year 2002, I was 17 then. I had a part time job where looks and talent is essential. I had a call from my employer (talent manager) for an audition in one of the biggest soap for prime time. They needed a 17 year old teenager to play the role of the best friend of the lead actor. I was really happy because it could be a big break for me. I went to the audition and when it was my turn, I did my thing as they wanted it to be like. I was really proud of myself that time because I got many positive applause and feedback. Sad thing was, despite of all my efforts they turned me down in the end. I can't believe I was rejected just because of my looks. They asked me if I was sure that I'm 17 because for them I only look 14. blink I was really disappointed and from that time on, I realized that looking young is not always an advantage. sad

How about you? Do you have similar experiences? good or bad? looking old or looking young?

hi i am arman and i look older from my original age. because i am tell and healthy person. i saw which people are short in height and having some type of thin body they looks younger from it's age. are you also?? have nice day dude.


myLot reputation of 97/100. hexeduser22 (652)   ranked 2,047 out of 37,951 in life  1 month ago

What do you mean by short is it with reference to your height. I'm thin and to give you the idea I'm just 5'6" tall. If you find it short then maybe you are right but usually people base my age because of my facehappythumbup

Well you can still look younger than your age even if you're tall. And you mentioned being healthy. I'm not sure what it means but I believe being healthy can make you look younger. HAHA!

it depends on the dress that i wear i think. because if i am wearing formal dresses or polo blouses people would call me madam, and if i am wearing shirts, people would call me miss...i don't know really, maybe i look older than my age since i am a little bit heavy.


myLot reputation of 97/100. hexeduser22 (652)   ranked 2,047 out of 37,951 in life  1 month ago

Yeah maybe the clothes we wear matter too in order to look young or old.

I've always been told that I look younger than I really am. I'm 21, and all throughout my teens, even up to this day, people have told me that I look younger than my actual age. It's actually quite annoying, if you ask me. For once, I would actually like to look my age. But it isn't really the case. So life goes really.


myLot reputation of 97/100. hexeduser22 (652)   ranked 2,047 out of 37,951 in life  1 month ago

I agree with you that it is really quite annoying because sometimes people thinks you're lying. I guess we must accept the fact that this is how we are and just live with it and somehow use it's advantages wisely. thumbup


myLot reputation of 96/100. dodo19 (4140)   ranked 5,794 out of 37,951 in life  1 month ago

I agree with you. We should use this as an advantage wisely. Hopefully, it will change.

According to the people around me, my face looked much younger than my age. Maybe because I exercise regularly, drink lots of white water and always smiling at everyone. But if I wear black clothes, I'll look older than if I wear brightly colored clothes.


myLot reputation of 97/100. hexeduser22 (652)   ranked 2,047 out of 37,951 in life  1 month ago

Wow that's a good thing to do I envy you because I don't really exercise regularly. I've never experience sleeping early for this past few months. I have to agree with you that smiling is one way to feel young and looking youngthumbup

I don't have that bad of an experiecnce like you. LOL! I think I look just as I should be on my age. i don't like to ask people to guess my age, actually. I always answer them when they ask for my age. Most of them were not that shocked hearing my age.


myLot reputation of 97/100. hexeduser22 (652)   ranked 2,047 out of 37,951 in life  1 month ago

I guess you're a pretty normal guy, I envy for that. Sometimes I like looking young and sometimes I hate it too

Awww how sad for you..I have never given it a second thought as to how i look compared tomy age.. I am 53, BUT everyone will tell me "no way are you in your 50's".. I thank them & ask howolddo i look & they insist in my early 30's. That is such a compliment i adore them... I have always had good happen to me because of the way i look.. I never thought there was a 'downside' to 'looking 'young, but you have pointed out there is one..lori


myLot reputation of 97/100. hexeduser22 (652)   ranked 2,047 out of 37,951 in life  1 month ago

I don't really know that looking young would be bad at times until it hit me. I'm glad that you never encountered similar experiences. I guess it somehow depends in the situation

I look younger than my ages and I am slightly thin or petite looks. One times I ride a bus then the conductor just charge me as a student fare and even not ask for ID, I am quite bit surprise he mistaken for a teenager student. Also the same things happen every time I ride different transportation vehicles they just charge me as a students. I take it as a compliment. Their is also cases when I accompany my sister to look for a room for rent, then met the landlady she think that I am much younger than my youngest sister. So the feeling is exhilarated and the compliments make me happy. Imagine being call as a teenagers and in a bar they also ask for my ID as they would not allow me to enter. People judge you by the way you look as what I experience and they also look not only on the face but on the body of the person. If they see you as thin, small in stature they think you look more young and immature. Sometimes it could be annoying as people could not trust you as they think you are young and not capable which very challenging if you like to be notice not on your looks alone but rather on your performance.


myLot reputation of 97/100. hexeduser22 (652)   ranked 2,047 out of 37,951 in life  1 month ago

Yeah you've said it all and because of your response I suddenly remembered another not so good experience just by looking young. I was not allowed to watch a certain movie in a cinema. I kept explaining that I was part of the movie and I'm of legal age, I have no ID to show because I forgot to bring my wallet that day. Fortunately, the director of the movie noticed me and I was able to watch myself in the big screen for the first time because of his helplol

Like you I have been blessed looking younger. For the most part my experiences have been good and many times fun. When I was in my late thirties my boyfriend was only 26. We would go out for a drink and invariably I would get carded but not him. We would laugh until our checks hurt.

When I was a teen it was hard sometimes to get people to take me serious until they really began to listen to me. But I don't remember anything as serious as losing a position from looking too young. I always rather enjoyed the surprise element.

Now that I am 63 I thoroughly enjoy it. On average people think I am at least ten years if not 20 years younger than my actual age. Like you I have never used anti-aging creams. People when they learn of my age always ask me 'what do you use on your skin'. They are stunned when I say nothing.

I guess the only drawback is that because I look so young the men who generally ask me out are way younger than me. I use to enjoy that but now I find it rather tiresome. Of course I rarely date anymore so it is not as big a problem as it use to be. And I love the shock when I mention I would like the senior discount.


myLot reputation of 97/100. hexeduser22 (652)   ranked 2,047 out of 37,951 in life  1 month ago

I guess I'll be enjoying it more when I get older. Looking young could really make other people envious and leave them in shock if you tell them your exact age. Maybe I should take care of my body more now if I want to really look young when I get old. My girlfriend is somewhat embarrassed when were together and people start telling us that I look younger even though were of the same age so I try as hard as I can to avoid that certain situation.
