Current Events > Are you 30 and already look OLD AS FUCK?

(+) Yeah! (+)

28 but still get carded occasionally

I'm in my early 30s, I look very young for my age, I've had people confuse me with being 20 years old, which is a huge problem when trying to find work. They don't understand that I have 15 years of work experience and think that I'm lying to them until I show them my drivers license.

Same with the way people treat me. I get treated like a dumb 18 year old, rather than the mature 33 year old that I am. Bosses think they can push me around and make me feel bad because I'm young and naive. Again, when I show them my I.D they turn a 180 almost immediately. I'm not going to let some punk 40 year old whose never spent a day working my job push me around and try to tell me how to do things.

LOL everybody thinks they look younger than they are.

I doubt it.

BTW most places are told to card anybody who looks younger than 35 or 40. So if you get carded and you're in your late 20s or your 30s, it's not because you look younger than 21.

33 and people say I look like Im in my early twenties.

And I doubt movie theaters actually card someone who's in their 20s or 30s and looks like it for R-rated movies.

I remember for my 29th birthday, me and my sister were eating at a restaurant, she mentioned to the guy that was serving us that it was my birthday and he asked me if I was 18.

If someone can still pass for under 21 one, probably. Regardless of sales, if someone is under 17 and they get sold a ticket for an R-rated movie without a parent or anyone that's 17 or older with them, the person who sold them the ticket could get in trouble.

37 and get mistaken for 25.

Bugs me when the sub trades call me young fella or some shit... but at this point its a compliment

I doubt many do care but yes it's a possibility

Those people who think you look younger, are they older or younger than you?
---

Yeah, I started balding in my late 20s, I've only grown to look worse since then.

I'm 35 and feel 10 years older than that.

I get both people that are older and younger than me. When I was 27, I was working at Toys R Us for the holiday season, one of the other guys working there found out how old I was and he said "I hate you. I'm 25 and you look younger than me."

I look at pictures of myself when I was in high school and aside from having gained a bit of weight since then, I really don't look any different than I did then. I remember my 11th grade English teacher saying that I had a babyface.

I'm 87 years old and people keep mistaking me for an 86 year old. I look so young for my age!
---

30 and most people think I'm around 23, I could definitely pass for younger if I didn't have a full beard
---

35. Literally was not allowed to enter a bar 5 months ago because I forgot my wallet. Still get carded at the liquor shop every time. Not that I'm complaining.

A lot of dudes itt lying about looking young. Let me tell you, as someone that started going to college in their late 20s and is now now 29: none of us look young. You're deluding yourself if you think you look like a young person.

I started backpacking at 28. Everyone thought I was a gap year student. So yea, I looked much younger than I was.

I'm 34 and I look my age. I've aged a lot in the last 3 years though. Before my daughter was born I could pass for my early to mid 20's, not anymore. I doubt I'll ever lose my hair though, it is still thick as fuck and hairline isn't receding at all.

I'm pretty sure having a daughter has aged me considerably.

I still get id'd and had a interviwer recently look surprised when she asked if i was over 18 and my response was ".......im 30"

I dont wear sunscreen use lotion or anything like that.

I'm 27 and it blows people's minds when I say I'm 27.

I still get carded for cigarettes
---

I'm 32. Got asked for ID going into the casino last week. Asian genes. But then thanks to working long hours for the past 13 years or so, I have grey hair and bags under the eyes... but apparently my skin still looks youthful.
