Looking Very Young

Hi there.

I am 21 years old turning 22 in about 5 months from now and I have a weird problem... My problem is, is that I look very young, I mean people often confuse for being 16-19 years old, someone even thought I was 12 once! So my question is this... is this normal?? is it possible I have like a protein deficincy?? I mean it sucks cause I get along with girls my age better than I do with girls younger than me, but since I look so young it's like girls my age will never go out with me, but of course girls younger than me, will... Any suggestions would be appreciated...

 

Thats a good thing. Enjoy it. Soon you will look old as sht and be complaining about that.

 

Post a pic. Let us decide.

 

Grow a beard.

 

Yeah, beard or gote helps a lot.

 

Don't grow a goatee. Nobody looks good with them.

 

dude...
you are young in the first place.
you cant change that you look young so people will have to except it.

 

it depends on a lot of things, i'm quite short (5'7") and have been asked for ID to buy alcohol twice this year (need to be 18 here) and i'm 29!

 

Don't feel bad. I got carded in my mid 40's! Heck, my beard was over 21.

The funny thing is, the checkout girl was only 2 years older than me. I actually had to walk out to my vehicle and get my ID.

I left that lady wondering what she had done wrong in her life that I should look so young.

facial hair is the answer. and shorter hair, a lot of 20s guys are sporting the same locks they had in junior high, cut that stuff. glasses sometimes help, get non prescription and see how they look on you. also how you dress says a lot about your maturity(at least people think so), are you dressing like a teenager or like a man? where are you meeting the girls? nobody is going to think you're a teen at a 21 and over club/bar, but thats only if you're looking for sex, dont expect to find a soulmate there.


i'm not suggesting you change anything about you that you like, only that maybe it's somethings from your teen years that you're attatched to thats broadcasting that you are younger than you are.

 

I have always looked young for my age - when I first became a lawyer, no one could believe that I was actually old enough to be one. Used to piss me off, but years later, I still look a lot younger than I am. So what you hate now, you will come to love later on.

 

i'm 26 and i always get asked so dear what can i get for you on the kids menu today lmao. While i'm thinking geez my hubby and i are gunna get a glass of wine and sone dinner and i get carded here and there and get asked if i'm my husbands daughter hes 10 yrs older than me. But thats good to look young its in your genes don't feel bad because when your 40 -50 you'll look 35-40 i still look 15 17 i get misteaken still and it bothers be i look in the mirror when i wash my face and i'll say to my hubby oh my gosh my face is maturing FINALLY!! after 6 years.. lmao.

 

if you look young now that means you will age very well

 

Dont worry about it. Someday they wont ask for your I.D.

 

Who is that masked man

Thanks for all your advice I really appreciate it!

 

I disagree

 

i disagree completely, too. dave looks awesome with a goatee

 

hang in there kid. everybodies balls drop at different times. it'll happen for you too.
sorry couldnt resist. I feel for ya bud. i always looked older the as i got older i leveled out. I was blessed that way.

 

i could recommend some hard livin for about four years. gain ya a couple scars, get some facial hair goin, and work you some hard labor for about two years. the women will go gaga for you.
