Yep. Definitely awkward when people ask age-related questions, and don't know your age.

I got an old acquaintance of my mother who hadn't seen my in years ask what grade I was in -in HS. And which I had to tell her that I graduated from HS years ago.

A woman I am acquainted with is 34. But looking at her, I would have thought 46 - 50

Best to keep comments regarding age to yourself. Some people don't like you guessing younger than their age, and some don't like you assuming older either.

I wish men would stop thinking they age better than women because they don't!! Men just don't give a crap. Men think they still look good old and fat..It just bothers women more....I think when you tell a woman she looks good for her age it just sounds like a backhanded compliment..Like well what the hell is someone my age suppose to look like??? All you have to say is you look good. Simple as that. You don't have to bring her age into the convo

Reason number ten zillion that PUA doesn't work on anyone remotely emotionally stable or secure. In this exhibit: how negging fails, unfailingly. OP, get your money back from that PUA course.

I think the two usually go hand in hand.

No, I do not think so.
I tend to believe that first- time posters come here with a question that bugged them for a long time, and are eager to get replies or advice on it. Unless they see themselves as "career trolls."

I meant being a jerk and trolling.
