Eh..depends on the make-up for me. Without make-up, I look young, and actualy kind of like I'm sick. I can pass for 11-13ish then. But when I wear make-up (it's the only way I look at all normal since my lower eyelashes are transparent) I look more my age, then a little older. My friends Say that I look 15-16ish. Some peple even thought I was 18+ish. I'm 14 and just 5'4" though.

I have the same "problem" here. I've passed as an 18 year old and have dudes in their 20's hitting on me... and I'm 13.
wow..
haha
i had that problem as well when i was 13..
although i looked a million times different..
now i just get it a lot more..
yet i look better now..
&shh;
seems like a lot of you actually look younger than your age..
thats odd.

I think I look younger than I really am. Or maybe I just look 13.
I've never really thought about it, but I'm pretty sure I don't look older than I really am.

hmm i was always a big baby, which i gotta say, i am really tall for my age, which makes me look older, i'm currently 14 years old, freshman at highschool and well people think i'm 17-18 years old.

May 5 2006, 07:56 PM
eh.
people mostly think i'm younger than 19. but, once, when i was 14, a lady tried to get me to sign up for a credit card. i was like. uhm. sure! is it alright that i'm only 14?! ...she felt stupid. so did i.
but, these days, people definitely think i'm younger. in person and online. ahahaha. especially online though.


someone asked if i was 14-15.
sigh.

Haha I was in Hot Topic once, and this guy came up to me and was like, "I think I've seen you before...What school did you graduate from?" and I was like, "Uhh, I'm in 8th grade..." He just sort of walked away...
But I don't think I look that old, so I don't know what he was smokin.

I was just wondering with another funny conversations today between me & the lady doing my hair.
Her: what school do you go to
Me: (the local high school)
Her: oh what year are you?
Me: a freshman
Her:

& i thought you were in college!
people always seem to think that I'm a million years older than i am even though I'm only 14 7 pretty UNDERdeveloped. Maybe it's because I'm asian & people always seem to think of asians as being small?
WHAT ABOUT YOU?
Eh... I guess people think I'm younger than I am. I'm 14 and when people ask me what age I am, this happens.
Them: Hey how old are you?
Me: Erm.. I'm 14 why?
Them: HOLY SHEET! I THOUGHT YOU WHERE LIKE 10 OR SOMETHING!!!
Me:

a nurse at my doctor's office thought i was 10 when i'm actually 16
and she thought my younger sister was older than me
That reminds me of a time where I confused my friend's younger sister for being older than the both of us (my friend and I), when really she was a year younger.
Some people mistake me for being older, and some say I fit my age. The day before my thirteenth birthday, a lady mistook me for being eighteen. Even some of my eFriends at first thought I was eighteen.

Person: Hey are you a junior/senior?
Me: No..I'm a sophomore.
Person: Really?? Wow..
Me: What..?
Person: Oh, nothing. I thought you were older.
Me: 'kay.

I'm 17, but people always think I'm 14. Resteraunts STILL ask me for a kids menu, even around a group of my friends. Pretty soon I'll be a senior in high school--I don't want to look like a middle schooler.

lots of people think I'm 16. and that's just off of looks. once they start talking to me, depending on my mood (like, if I'm hyper or not :B) I once got mistaken for being
19.
..I have no clue how that happened, either.

I don't look my age, no. I've been oddly looked since 12 and mistaken for someone 6 years older or so.
I'm currently sixteen and I've been told I look 16-20's. Shrug. And told I "act and talk" maturely. Shrug, again. It's happened many times, but..I used to see it as a good thing, now, I don't.

I actually look about my age- if it was anything different, and including personality, I'd prob ably be seen as younger than I really am. I have that "happy-go-lucky" sort of personality.

i just turned 15 and i invited a few bands to play at my party and they all thought i was turning 18. i'm not that tall (5'5) and i'm really skinny (so i'm under-developed) and i never wear makeup and people always think i'm 17+.
most of my friends are older than me...i've never gotten along with people my age.

People say I look plenty older than I really am. A majority of people thought I was in high school, when really I'm still in middle school. The oldest I was mistaken for was 40, but I'm sure that was an exaggeration.

some people think i'm older; some think i'm just my age; some never think i'm younger.
when i was 14, i passed for 16 by some dude who was just plain creepy.
now, people are like, "how old are you?"
"15."
"WOW! really!?!? i thought you were 17.." blah blah blah.
