Are you constantly mistaken for much younger or older than you are? (attractive, couple)

Happy to report much younger. I look younger, and being immature adds to the illusion. I'm 48 and people think I'm early 30's. But I look at my peers and it's not hard. I went to my 30 year and you'd think I was a rock star. The married guys had all let themselves go. A bunch of current single ones looked much better. But then again, the incentive is there.

I'm 21 and am told i look at most 16 years old.

This reminded me of something and mentioned it in the parenting thread some time back. When I was 24 I was pregnant with my son. I looked much younger. While waiting in line at the grocery store an elderly couple were standing in front of me. If I had to guess and obviously from this forum I could be wrong but I would say they were in the late 60's range. Right away I noticed the woman giving me disapproving glances. Then she said loudly to her husband for me to hear, "What a shame, babies having babies." It pissed me off. It was hot, I was huge and not in the mood. I leaned in between the both of them and said, "Umm...I'm 24." The woman was embarrassed and tried to play it off saying I looked so young, yada yada. Whatever. She should have minded her own biz.

I am 28 and to this day some people think I am 16. Sometimes it is annoying because people don't take you seriously when you look that young.

In my case I think it is genetic...my parents get told that they must be in their early 40s (they are both in their mid 50s) and my grandparents on both sides looked way younger than they were (when my dad's mother was 78, people would tell her she looked 60).

My friends will joke that I look like I am 21, just to placate me.

I look probably 5-8 years younger than I do. I still have boyish looks despite my age and condition

I assumed that you were a woman.. my mistake.

I look very young..not sure why.. all that clean living I suppose. I have never smoked ciggs but I have always baked myself in tanning beds and sweet sweet sunshine. No wrinkles to speak of yet.

I'm 36, most people I meet think I'm in my mid to late 20's.
Friends thought my ex was older than me even when she is 7 years younger, obviously she didn't like to hear that.

people always think I'm 5-10 years younger than I really am. My mom says it will be a blessing when I’m in my older but at 32 it sucks because in my line of work people think I'm just a kid and I don't know what I'm talking about. I've found that keeping my hair short and revealing that I now have a bit of a receding hairline has really helped me look more my age.
my friends a jealous and are constantly saying that if they looked like me they would be nailing college girls still but I like a woman that's closer to my age yet have found it difficult to date a woman over 30 because I literally could pass for 21 with the right clothes.

I'm 33 and I look a lot younger but when I talk they can tell I am older.

Well now that I've taken my profile pictures down I'm going to say that most people take me for at least 10-15 yrs younger
