Babyface

[Wave2k]

Anyone here have one ?

I thought i would have grown out of it by now, but i still dont look a day over 17 despite being nearly enough 26.

Everyone always says "youll be thankful when you are older" , god if i had a penny every time someone said that id be a rich man.

I cant help of thinking of the negatives this brings.

People wont take you seriously, bosses and colleagues wont take you as seriously specially if you are in a position of authority.

Women in there 20s will practically ignore you, though ive found it doesnt really bother women who are 30+ i suppose that could be slight plus.
Still its not nice being rejected because you look 'too young' which has happened in the past, though i am married now it still bugs me.

Ive become really self concious about it over the years, even more so as i get older but dont look older.
A few years ago i thought if i beefed up a bit, i would look older.

Bigger = Older

I succeeded in putting a bit of meat on i went from 9"10 to 12"2, and have become a bit of a gym rat in doing it, but it hasn't made me look any older at all.

If anything i look even more like a man-child, mans body childs face.

I do.

I couldn't care less.



People are always shocked when I tell them I'm 20, or have ridden bikes for 4 years now. Most assume when I say bike I mean bicycle.

Too many people are concerned with how they look. Being genetically different doesn't make you better than anyone.

I look about 12 if I have a shave, I'm 30

I can't say it's ever really bothered me

I managed to look student age for about 15 years.

Last time I got ID'd I was 28 (or 30 in the US, but that doesn't really count as they ID everyone). I found the easiest way is to get a bit of a beard going - everyone looks older once they're beardy. Still now if I shave off my bumfluff (even in my early thirties I can barely grow a proper beard) I look like I'm in my 20s, and that's despite beginning to thin on top!

So, beard/stubble...

I'm lucky, I looked older than my years when I was under 18 (booze!)

And now I look young for my age (superior substances!)

Nope, has always been the other way around for me, remember buying my mates tabs from shops at 14. Never been ID'd yet either

Another one for facial hair.

I'm 18... with my beard and moustache as I've got now I look early 20s. Very rarely get IDd in ASDA and have never been IDd for entry to clubs or buying drinks at pubs.

When I shave I'll always get IDd.

I had the opposite problem. By 14 I could grow what passed for facial hair. That plus being 6foot meant I didn't really have trouble getting into places I probably shouldn't have been. I'm now 28 and I think I have levelled out. I pretty much look my age.

My wife on the other hand has a similar problem to yourself. Like me, she is also 28, yet gets ID'd all the time. Alcohol, petrol, even lottery tickets!

I'm sure it's just how you see yourself, I bet you look age appropriate really. Maybe you are a new evolution of human, still in your teenage years, and will in fact live to 150....

[WannaBeDude]

Lovely, seems only tother day when ID was a problem, now in asda, people assuming my mum is my wife is more of a problem.

I'm glad it's not just me! I'm 28 and I look like a child. I always get "Oh, you look about 12," and people always ask how old I am, especially when I'm at work. I find it rude when people demand to know how old I am, it's almost an opportunity for them to belittle me. It doesn't help that I'm really self-conscious about it.

Unfortunately, in my job, a bit of authority is necessary sometimes and it's very annoying to watch it erode in seconds when someone tells me they think I look twelve.

There's no point in me not bothering to shave because it's all patchy and I look like a pubescent teenager.

People often quite flippantly tell me how "lucky" I am that I look so young. But I don't like it at all.

I have never yet found a way to make myself look a bit older. If you find a way, Wave, let me know!

[MinhDinh]

Wear specs, that helps I think.

Having someone ask for the '40yo who rides the red bike' when you are 17 is a bit of an arse.
Never looked my age but always put that down to having a face the not even my mother could love lol.

I think all the people complaining about looking young should stick some pictures up, just to prove how lucky they really are.

No one believes I'm 28, currently get told I look about 35 ffs, my missus is approaching 30 and still gets ID'd. You ARE lucky.

Mark Roberts we've seen your face and you don't look 40, you look a cunt.
