Do people mistake your age?

[Here No Longer 5,270]

On a few occasions I've had people that seemed a bit surprised that I was older than they thought. I've never heard people say a specific age, though.

[Props Valroa 26,038]

My biology teacher once mistaked me for being a grade older than I actually am. Same thing happens to one of my best friends from time to time.

[Steve Piranha 28,778]

I was mistaken for someone of 24 years. I became 28 last month 

[Odyssey 5,713]

So much so that I got a free child's pass to somewhere expensive instead of paying full price. Of course I rolled along with that 

[KH7672 1,604]

Absolutely, it's the whole reason I grew out my goatie and mustache. I have such a baby face that at work people would ask if I'm still in school or if I plan on going to college. I was already 22 and out of college then! Now at least they will ask if I'm still in college or guess I'm a year or two behind my actual actual age. 

[Lucky Bolt 34,914]

Oh all the time, apparently I'm still 15 to some people. 

[Cyclone 1066 3,616]

Yes. People who hear me and the way I talk and what I talk about and who I talk to mostly think I'm in my 40s....

Now that I don't have the beard people who SEE me think I'm 12.

Same. If you look at any pictures of me, you'd swear I was around my mid-late teens.

[Nsxile 25,669]

Yep. People often tell me that I look about 19 - 21 

[TBD 17,228]

Yeah people think I'm a little younger than 28.

[Clawdeen 12,109]

Yeah people think I’m younger than I actually am

Same here, this tends to happen at work the most for some reason.

[Savygriffs 5,021]

Yes, a lot of people think I'm younger than I actually am.

Most think I'm like, 18 or something, when in fact I'm not.

[Fluttershyfan94 5,738]

I have gotten called a boy at the age of 27, so it has often actually I mean I look sixteen I would say. That's what others have said as well, some have asked if I was lying about my age to them. Of course though that may have to do with me typically living as a teenager. I've been considered too young to drink alchol when I'm of age I've often been stopped at bars, nightclubs because they thought I was trying to sneak in haha. People often essentially do, I do feel it is a good thing though when people think you're younger.  

[Megas 27,063]

Put me in the "People think I'm younger than I really am" camp. I don't know whether I should take it as a compliment or not

[Magpie 621]

Not so much anymore, when I was a bit younger people thought I was older. Being 6'7 with a deep voice does that, I guess.. Now I'm just a 20-something.

[Astralshy 23,555]

These days it doesn't happen too often anymore but until 5 years ago people almost always mistaken my age and thought I would be much younger

[daviddaviddavid 772]

Not really. I think I look my age, at least within a year or two either side. I had an early growth spurt and was 6'1 (185cm) by the time I was 13 though, so people pretty much always thought I was an adult from then onwards

[DixonTheAdversary 1,631]

When I was 15 or so, a waiter at a restaurant thought I was 21. So I'd say most people think I'm older than I actually am.

[The Kaeya Simp 13,953]

i usually get mistaken for 14 or 15

[ZiggWheelsManning 7,359]

People haven't mistaken me by my age at the workplace, so it's no problem.  

[EpicEnergy 22,074]

I've had it happen a few years ago, but not any time recently.

[Splashee 28,537]

Absolutely. Thankfully I have an ID card 

[privet 175]

I'm in my early 20's but people mistake me for 30...insane lol

 

[Savygriffs 5,021]

I'm in my early 20's but some people think I'm like 17. lol
