I think that I look my age. For quite a few years I looked younger. Stress and weight loss killed that.

I don't see anything wrong with looking my age.

I'm 30. Even when dressed my age (the sportcoat/slacks/shined-up boots thing) I still get asked which high school I go to. I think it's hereditary via my mom's side. Even her 81-year old mother looks like she's maybe in her very early 60s. Assuming the bad blood (i.e. my dad's side) has any influence, I'll be half-gray within the next five years and by 40 there'll be a giant bald spot on the back of my cranium.

Thus I can easily pull off the hoodie/J.N.C.O.s or baggy Southpoles with chains/Vans thing, which is generally more comfortable anyways. Strangely enough I don't even get asked for identification when going certain places dressed like that (huh?).

And I like apple pie with my coffee. Kyle MacLachlan would hate me. Showing my age now.

I have this theory.. most people born in the early 80s tend to look really young, because they grew up in a time period where they didn't have as much pressure to strive to be the next child prodigy.. takes age off a person's face.

Happy people tend to look younger. How you feel inside reflects on how you look on the outside.

I like pie.

I am actually kind of not sure on this one. I am 40 and I would say I look younger. But really, what does 40 look like? There are so many factors in what a person of whatever age may look like.

Forty can look so many ways...

34 here and most people assume my age between late 20s and early 30s.
But i have the impression that most people seem to look younger than their biological age today, a 34 today is not like a 34 say 30 years ago.

I guess when I wear my basketball shorts and a t shirt, I look like a teenager but when I wear pants and a dress shirt, I look older.
I think I look younger and other people have told me this as well so it must be true!

Most people think I am younger but it's probably since I am so short
