How many people here are adults?

I am 23 but I look 15 or 16 i'm told a lot. in person when i talk though i guess i use a bigger vocab so people tend to think i am older than what i am

I'm in my early twenties, but unfortunately look a couple of years older than I actually am. Not very flattering at all

I feel your pain! I got IDd for scissors at 18, which was bad enough. Then at 23 I got IDd for a lottery ticket (age 16 too). She looked at my ID (drivers license!) and went "Oh! Erm. Wow. Sorry." I'm 24 now. Don't you hate it when they go "You'll be thankful for it when you're older!" Yeah. Great.

I guess it is quite lucky to look young but unless you constantly tell people your age, you tend to get spoken down to. I work in an old people's home and relatives of new residents often ask to speak to a "senior" member of staff instead of talking to me. I'm always having to explain that I've been doing the job for nearly a decade and hardly anyone believes me

I completely agree. I am 24 but I look much much younger and I always get spoken down to. My favorite is when people try and intimidate me. I have no tolerance for that, It doesnt work out for them so well. {thumb2}

I am 23 and I have the same problems with looking young. I have had a hard time getting into bars with bouncers thinking I have a fake I.D.

well I'm 16 but I probably do act like a 16 year old lol which I could act like an adult and older but its best to keep to my age lolz...

I'm 24 and constantly told I look much younger :neutral: It could be flattering if I was 40 but now its rather annoying...

I look about 23, and am older than that.
