I look real young, people I work with when they find out how old I'm say I thought you were my age 28-35......makes me smile, I still don't have gray hair, or crows feet around my eyes, and I follow no beauty regime. I have adult children and a 2 year old grandson.

Embarrassing because some people make such a big deal about it - they go back to their group and tell everyone "she's his mother!" and then more people come over. I liken it to being the she-male or bearded lady in the circus side show.
I forgot that you had a 23-year-old son too!

I wont brag but yes, there have been many times Ive been in town with one of my daughters and her kids and have been mistaken as her sister, or the kids' mom, or a friend, but not as their grandma.

I'm an old teenager of 57 and I look a young 40 if not younger.
And I feel 16.

And everything still works , ya know what I mean.

You don't look 45 in that photo lionking. You look to be somewhere in your early 30s in that pic, seriously.

I dont know.. to me he looked close to his 40's. I would agree with Roamin.. a hair cut and maybe a different style would do wonders. I get told I look much younger.. and much older then I am.. it depends on who you are talking to.. LOL .. oh well.. cant win them all..

I have been mistaken many times for someone much younger than I am. It's not a blessing but a curse as there are many times I want to be taken seriously in my field, or when conducting other types of business. I've had people I casually know pat me on the head or pull my hair like I'm a doll. Usually I get the head pats from men and the hair pulling from women who are taller and bigger than me, which I find absolutely insulting.
